Abstract :
The main purpose of this study was to
determine the prevalence of behavioural deviance and
perceived parenting styles among higher secondary
school students. Descriptive survey was employed as the
design. The sampling procedure adopted by the
investigator was random sampling (Simple). 403 Higher
secondary school students of district Baramullah
comprise the sample of the study. Parenting Style Scale by
Gupta & Mehtani (2017) and Behaviour Deviance Scale
by Chauhan and Aurora (1989) were utilized to collect the
data. The collected data was analysed with the use of
percentage and frequency counts. It was inferred from the
analysis that behavioural deviance is prevalent among
16.27 % of adolescent students. The results also indicate
that permissive parenting style is associated with the
highest portion of school-going adolescents who engage in
anti-social behaviours, followed by autocratic,
uninvolved, and democratic parenting styles. Moreover,
the results also reveal that most of the students were
raised with democratic parenting style followed by
autocratic, uninvolved and permissive parenting style
