Abstract

In this study, we analyses how juvenile offenders' impressions of their parents' emotional responses affect their own emotional processing. Several elements, including as parental style, communication, rejection, gender, ethnicity, and the kind of delinquent conduct, are identified and reviewed in this research as contributors to this association. Implications for further study into the root causes of juvenile delinquency and the power of nurturing parental relationships to counteract the development of antisocial traits are also discussed. According to the results, kids who see their parents' bad conduct are more prone to have emotional difficulties and act out criminally. Ultimately, the study finishes by stressing the need of doing further studies on this difficult problem in order to get a complete understanding of the connection between juvenile delinquents' perceptions of their parents' actions and the way they process their own emotions.
Method: With the use of SPSS 27.0's regression analysis, we can determine how much of an effect parents' actions are thought to have on juvenile delinquents' capacity for emotional processing. We utilized Dr. Nalini Rao's Parent-Child Relationship scale and Dr. Roger Baker's Emotional Processing Scale to determine how the parents' actions were perceived by the child.
