Percepcja technik wychowawczych rodziców a zadowolenie z życia młodych osób w okresie adolescencji i wczesnej dorosłości

The authors analyze the satisfaction with life of young people in relation to the perception of the parenting techniques. 524 school and university students from the Podkarpacie region aged 13–22 were surveyed using the Inventory of Parental Discipline Techniques (IPDT) by Gała and the Student’s Life Satisfaction Scale (SLSS) by Huebner. The dominant technique used by parents is that of introduction to principles. Fathers use the technique of indifference more often than mothers. Mothers use the technique of power assertion more frequently as their children grow in age. Parenting techniques have a significant relationship with the level of life satisfaction of the adolescents and young adults, but at different stages of development different parental techniques are associated with their life satisfaction.
