Abstract

The purpose of the study was to find out relationship between parenting styles and self-efficacy of undergraduate students. Correlational research was selected as research design. The population of the study was undergraduates in the education departments of the public and private universities of Lahore. The total number of students selected was 538 as sample. Parenting Authority Questionnaire (PAQ), developed by Buri (1991) was used to measure parenting styles of mothers, and the self-efficacy questionnaire developed by Jerusalem and Schwarzer, (1995). Results showed that there is a significant relationship between parenting styles and self-efficacy of undergraduate students. It is highly recommended that training programs might be created to assist mothers in implementing effective parenting practices. These measures could benefit mothers in helping them identify and acknowledge the way in which they might interact with their children effectively.
