  1. How parenting styles affect juvenile delinquency By: Taylor Ardizzone

  2. Topic & importance • Parenting styles is the independent variable and juvenile delinquency is the dependent variable. • Different parenting styles affects children in different ways. • Children absorb and mimic both the good and bad attributes of their parents. • It affects EVERYBODY! • The earlier we can analyze the different parenting styles and the affects they have ontoday’s children, the earlier we can be able to detect how certain children will develop and behave later in life; all depending on their family structure.

  3. Thesis & theory • 5 types of parenting: the authoritarian, the permissive, the rejecting-neglectful, the traditional, and the democratic-authoritative. (Joseph, 1994, p.95) • Authoritarian  very strict • Permissive  easy going • Rejecting-neglectful  less involved in their children’s lives • Traditional  mixed; one parent is authoritarian (usually the father) and another parent is permissive (usually the mother). • Democratic-authoritative  commands respect • Permissive or rejecting-neglectful parenting are more likely to cause juvenile delinquency.

  4. Method & analysis • Distribute 200 anonymous surveys to parents of middle school and/or high school students throughout the Chicago suburbs. • Distribute another 200 anonymous surveys to middle school and high school students throughout the Chicago suburbs. • Scan the surveys onto a computer using Remark and SPSS software. Remark puts each individual question and answer into a chart and SPSS analyzes your answers and determine how many of each parenting style there is roughly in each area and how many parents’ beliefs and values were influenced by their own parents.

  5. model survey PARENTS STUDENTS How many parents do you have? How old are you? Have you ever talked back to your parents? Have you ever shoplifted? Have you ever experimented with drugs? Have you ever skipped school? • Where do you live? • How many children do you have? • How would you respond to your child if they started to talk back? • On a scale of 1 to 10, how much of an impact do you perceive your own parents to have on your current beliefs?
