Connecting the Study Findings with the Self-

Page 10: Adolescent-Parent Disagreements and Parenting Styles in Worldwide

“Innate psychological

needs for competence,

autonomy, and

relatedness must be

considered.”

(Deci & Ryan, 2000)

Page 11: Adolescent-Parent Disagreements and Parenting Styles in Worldwide

Relatedness refers to the desire to feel connected

to others to love and care, and to be loved and

cared for.

Autonomy refers to volition -the organismic

desire to self- organize experience and behavior

and to have activity be concordant with one's

integrated sense of self.

Page 12: Adolescent-Parent Disagreements and Parenting Styles in Worldwide

“When people's goal-directed behavior is

autonomous rather than controlled, the correlates and

consequences are more positive in terms of the

quality of their behavior as well as their health and

well-being” (Deci & Ryan, (2000) p.243)

Page 13: Adolescent-Parent Disagreements and Parenting Styles in Worldwide

“According to SDT, these three needs can be satisfied

while engaging in a wide variety of behaviors that may

differ among individuals and be differentially manifest

in different cultures, but in any case their satisfaction

is essential for the healthy development and wellbeing

of all individuals regardless of culture.”

In the coming slide, there are two quotes retrieved from the

STD theory from Deci & Ryan (2000).

With the person who sits next to you:

1) Discuses these statements,

2) compare your ideas about the statements with Phinney et

al. article,

3) share with us

“The concept of autonomy is far less prevalent in empirical

psychology than are the ideas of competence and

relatedness. And indeed, when it is discussed it is often

incorrectly equated with the ideas of internal locus of

control, independence, or individualism. For us, however,

autonomy concerns the experience of integration and

freedom, and it is an essential aspect of healthy human

functioning”

“The three basic psychological needs in STD are

universal which could be applied from culture to

culture”

Parenting Styles

Diana Blumberg Baumrind

(born August 23, 1927) is a

clinical and developmental

psychologist known for her

research on parenting styles

and for her critique of the use

of deception in psychological

research.

Page 18: Adolescent-Parent Disagreements and Parenting Styles in Worldwide

Parenting styles were based on two aspects:

Parental responsiveness, which refers to the degree the

parent responds to the child's needs.

Parental demandingness which is the extent to which the

parent expects more mature and responsible behavior from a

child.

Page 19: Adolescent-Parent Disagreements and Parenting Styles in Worldwide

Parenting Styles

Indulgent parents (also referred to as “permissive” or

“nondirective”) “are more responsive than they are

demanding. They are nontraditional and lenient, do not

require mature behavior, allow considerable self

regulation, and avoid confrontation” (Baumrind, 1991,

p.62).

Page 20: Adolescent-Parent Disagreements and Parenting Styles in Worldwide

Authoritarian parents are highly demanding and directive,

but not responsive. “They are obedience- and status-

oriented, and expect their orders to be obeyed without

explanation” (Baumrind, 1991, p. 62).

These parents provide well-ordered and structured

environments with clearly stated rules.

Parenting Styles

Page 21: Adolescent-Parent Disagreements and Parenting Styles in Worldwide

Authoritative parents are both demanding and

responsive. “They monitor and impart clear

standards for their children’s conduct. They are

assertive, but not intrusive and restrictive. Their

disciplinary methods are supportive, rather than

punitive. They want their children to be assertive as

well as socially responsible, and self regulated as

well as cooperative”

Parenting Styles

Page 22: Adolescent-Parent Disagreements and Parenting Styles in Worldwide

Uninvolved parents are low in both responsiveness and

demandingness. In extreme cases, this parenting style

might encompass both rejecting–neglecting and

neglectful parents, although most parents of this type fall

within the normal range.

Cross-cultural study conducted in Eight Arab countries:

Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Egypt, Algeria, Jordan, Lebanon, the

Palestinian occupied territories, and Israel

A sample of 3,022 rural and urban Arab adolescents in the

11th grade of school (16-17 years old).

Culture and Social Pictures From Arab world

Page 24: Adolescent-Parent Disagreements and Parenting Styles in Worldwide

Contrary to the positive attitude toward individuation in the West, the

collective and authoritarian (tight or uncertainty-avoidant) culture does

not appreciate autonomy but rather considers it a threat to the harmony

of the collective.

The family (extended and nuclear) is more important than the

individual. Children grow up with values of loyalty to and respect for

their families. The socialization of children relies very much on

punishment to enforce values, norms, and behavioral manners

Arab individuals possess a collective identity. The self is not

completely individuated, but rather the person continues to be

enmeshed in the collective family identity. Self-concept is very

much a reflection of family approval, and self-esteem is very much a

reflection of the familial affiliation.

Page 25: Adolescent-Parent Disagreements and Parenting Styles in Worldwide

Many Arabs developed negative attitudes toward Western

culture as part of their resistance and their need to preserve

their own identity and culture.

However, Arab families are influenced by two cultural

frames of reference: the Arab Muslim authoritarian-

collective culture and the Western liberal individualistic

culture.

Page 26: Adolescent-Parent Disagreements and Parenting Styles in Worldwide

Results show that all parenting styles differed across

Arab societies.

Cluster analysis revealed three combined parenting

patterns: inconsistent (permissive and authoritarian),

controlling (authoritarian and authoritative), and flexible

(authoritative and permissive).

Page 27: Adolescent-Parent Disagreements and Parenting Styles in Worldwide

Parenting styles were varied across Arab countries (societies)

In traditional countries such as Yemen and Saudi Arabia, tending to

be more authoritarian than parenting styles in modern countries such

as Lebanon and Jordan.

The parenting styles applied to girls tend to be more authoritative

and less authoritarian than those applied to boys.

Parenting in rural areas tends to be more authoritarian.

First born children experience less authoritarian and more

permissive parenting styles

The socioeconomic level of the family has a positive correlation with

permissive and authoritative parenting styles and a negative

correlation with the authoritarian style.

What other aspects in addition to culture / ethnic may

cause the youth conflicts?

Further questions regarding this topic

Whether the same ethnic youths would have the

same reactions and reasons if they financially self

sufficient?

How would we rate the sense of acquiescence,

negotiation and self-assertion for the adolescents

when they live in their original countries?
