Abstract

The present research was carried out with the aims to investigate 1) the association between parenting
styles and emotional intelligence and their dimensions, 2) to know whether parenting style (and its dimensions) predicts
emotional intelligence, 3) to find out the predictive value of the items of the parenting style scale in the scores of
emotional intelligence using stepwise linear regression analysis. The sample of 320 adolescents of Jharkhand was
selected using mixed sampling design (cluster sampling followed by stratified sampling). The data was analysed using
SPSS V20 software. Parental rejection style has significant negative correlation with emotional intelligence. One of the
dimensions of parenting style i.e., warmth/affection was found to be positively associated with the overall emotional
intelligence and its dimensions. Whereas, the other negative dimensions of parenting (aggression/hostility, neglect/
indifference and rejection/undifferentiated) were negatively related with the overall emotional intelligence and with
the dimensions of emotional intelligence (understanding emotions, understanding motivation, empathy and handling
relations). Furthermore, result also shows that parenting style (and its dimensions) significantly predicted emotional
intelligence.
