How do parenting patterns and level of religiosity affect adolescent confidence?

Abstract

Self-confidence is one aspect of personality that is important in adolescent development. Self-confidence plays a role in making a meaningful contribution to the process of one's life. This study aimed to determine the extent to which self-confidence in adolescents is influenced by parenting and the level of religiosity. The research method used is descriptive quantitative with multiple linear regression analysis. The results indicate that proper parenting is the first step in growing self-confidence in children. Democratic parenting has a significant influence on the level of self-confidence of adolescents. In addition, the religious level also influences, although not significantly, adolescents' self-confidence.
