Abstract

This paper reviews papers about the impact of parenting styles on adolescents' anxiety and academic achievement, emphasizing the differential effects of cultural background and parental role. The study shows that parenting styles have different effects on students' anxiety and academic performance. Cultural differences play a crucial role in parenting styles and anxiety while permissive parenting is more favourable to adolescents' adjustment to school life in Spain, compared to the conclusion that authoritarian parenting is more positive in Asia. In addition, gender differences are also significant, with authoritative parenting styles of fathers associated with low levels of anxiety in university students, while authoritarian parenting styles of mothers were associated with high levels of anxiety. These findings emphasize the different roles that mothers and fathers play in shaping the emotional well-being of their children. In terms of academic achievement, the paper reveals that effective parental supervision and care is positively associated with academic success. It also highlights the need for more nuanced research to explain the influence of both parents and to explore how parenting styles affect gender differences in anxiety and academic achievement. The paper concludes with practical recommendations, such as increasing parental involvement.
