Abstract

Depression in adolescents is a growing mental health problem that can impact psychological, social, and academic aspects. Parenting styles significantly impact adolescent mental health. Inappropriate parenting styles have the potential to lead to emotional problems, including depression. This study aimed to determine the relationship between parenting styles and depression levels in adolescents aged 16–18 at SMAN 1 Widodaren, Ngawi Regency. This study used a descriptive correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. The population was 1,158 and the sample size was 92 respondents, selected using stratified random sampling. Data were collected using the Parental Authority Questionnaire (PAQ) to measure parenting styles and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II) to measure depression levels. Statistical tests used the Spearman Rank Test. The analysis revealed a significant relationship between parenting styles and depression levels in adolescents aged 16–18 at SMAN 1 Widodaren. The findings confirm that implementing appropriate parenting styles is crucial for maintaining adolescent mental health and preventing depression. It is recommended that future research include other variables, such as social support or the school environment, to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing adolescent depression. Keywords: Depression, Parenting Styles, & Adolescents Aged 16-18.
