Abstract
This was an ex-post-facto study to analyze parenting style and personality disorder on
a purposive sample of 227 male and 125 female science students of JSS college, Dharwad,
Karnataka state, who were living with their both the parents. The age of the respondents
ranged between 18 to 23 years. Respondents were undergraduate from B. Sc. I, B. Sc. II and
B. Sc. III years. Parenting scale (Bharadwaj et al., 1998) was used to measure models of
parenting and OMNI-IV Personality Disorder Inventory (Loranger Armand, 2001) was used
to measure personality disorders.
The data were subjected to percentage, correlation and association to analyze the
results. The results revealed that there was positive relationship between age and personality
disorders, negative relationship between education, occupation of parents and personality
disorders.
There was no significant difference between the male and female respondents on eight
perceived models of parenting and eight personality disorders, but there was significant
difference on two personality disorders. Majority of the respondents had developed
acceptance, indulgence, realism, discipline and marital adjustment model of parenting, even
then the respondents had developed obsessive-compulsive, narcissistic, histrionic, schizoid,
paranoid, avoidant, schizotypal, dependent, antisocial and borderline tendencies
hierarchically from 1.00 to 21.00 per cent. Correspondingly, eight perceived models of
parenting had negative relationship with 10 personality disorders. Subsequently, it was
confirmed that mothering, fathering and parenting have significant negative relationship with
10 personality disorders.
