“…Cultural structures are considered to result in a sense of pride that reinforces gender roles in parenting and impedes involvement by fathers (Valizadeh, Mirlashari, Navab, Higman, & Ghorbani, 2018). However, fathers begin to take on a more pivotal parenting role as the child moves into adolescence, as they have increased contact with the outside world (Keshavarz & Mounts, 2017).…”

“…These findings support the concept of a patriarchal society, where mothers are considered to have closer relationships with their children, but those same children are more responsive to the decision‐making authority of the father. Considered a collectivist rather than individualist culture, Iran's predominant parenting approach is considered to be more authoritarian, and as a consequence, has adapted a specific pattern of nurturing children to reflect this (Keshavarz & Mounts, ). In Iran, males are viewed as dominant figures (Rasoulian et al, ), but the direct care of children is considered to be principally the mother's role.…”

In Iran, as in other nations, adolescence can be a challenging period for both parents and their children. Typically, mothers assume the main role of parenting, which can have a negative impact either directly or indirectly on paternal involvement, or conversely, play a positive role of mediation between fathers and their adolescent children. In the present study, we report on a qualitative study conducted in 2016 that explored the perceptions of Iranian parents toward the paternal role in raising adolescent children. Twenty three mothers and fathers of adolescent children were interviewed to explore their views and experiences with paternal roles in raising adolescent children. Four themes emerged from the data: (i) limited father-child interactions; (ii) mother-led parenting; (iii) father-child conflict; and (iv) united front parenting. The findings suggest that mothers maintain a prime role in parenting, but that the involvement of fathers can have a negative or positive impact on adolescent development, depending on the level and quality of that involvement. Strategies need to be explored for how parents can best support one another to engage in the development of adolescent children.

“…These two results can be rationalized in Baumrind's model by the understanding that the development of self-concept requires both warmth and challenge from the parents: coercive authoritarian parenting lacks the former and permissive parenting lacks the latter. Yet, authoritarian parenting was also shown to positively influence assertiveness in African American girls (Baumrind, 1972) and self-efficacy in Iranian adolescents (Keshavarz & Mounts, 2017).…”

“…The second possible source of bias, as noted earlier in this article, is the personal specificity of our students. Some differences have been studied between male and female students with respect to the effect of parenting style on learning (Baumrind, 1972;Chan & Chan, 2005;Keshavarz & Mounts, 2017) and between ethnic groups ((Gonzalez et al, 2001((Gonzalez et al, , 2002Joshi et al, 2003;Steinberg & Dornbusch Brown, 1992). Yet, our population was mainly composed of students belonging to ethnic groups who behave like occidental people at the stage of adolescence (Alt, 2016, on Palestinian adolescents;Yaffe et al, 2018, on Jewish and Bedouin adolescents; Hatem, 2014, on Druze adolescents).…”

Parenting style affects self-regulation in school pupils, yet its long-term influence on academic behavior is rarely studied. A pilot study was conducted on 83 teacher college students, who filled in a questionnaire measuring recollections of parenting styles (Parental Authority Questionnaire [PAQ]) and self-regulation in learning (Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire [MSLQ]). Unlike in results known about adolescents, authoritative parenting was not significantly associated with students’ present self-regulation skills, except for human resources. Authoritarian parenting was the only parenting style correlated with motivation, self-efficacy, and cognitive strategies and strongly correlated with critical thinking. These results suggest new ways of evaluating the relationship of authoritarian parenting with academic skills.

“…Cross-cultural research uncovered inconsistent findings related to the effects of the authoritarian parenting style on the development of children. Some researchers, especially in Middle Eastern and Eastern countries, found positive impacts for the authoritarian parenting style on children's outcomes [80,[85][86][87]. Most Western research, however, showed negative influences when parents adopt authoritarian styles in rearing their children [88][89][90][91][92].…”

The present study examined the predictive role of students’ perceptions of parenting styles on their academic efficacy beliefs. This relationship was examined using two large sets of national data that were collected from school and university students to see how the relationship between parenting styles and academic efficacy beliefs may or may not vary across life stages. The sample included 1431 school students and 1119 university students cross the Sultanate of Oman. The participants responded to the Arabic version of the Parental Authority Questionnaire (PAQ) and to the Academic Self-Efficacy Scale (ASES) constructed by the researchers. Using linear regression model for each sample, the results showed that the amount of variance in school students’ academic self-efficacy beliefs explained by parenting styles (R2 adjusted = 0.21) was higher than the amount of variance explained for the university sample (R2 adjusted = 0.10). The researchers concluded that the effects of parenting styles on students’ self-efficacy beliefs decrease as children grow up.
