Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Joint decision making involves collaboration and compromise, allowing adolescents to feel heard and respected. This type of parenting has been associated with positive outcomes such as higher self-esteem, increased academic achievement, and fewer behavioral problems. Authoritarian and uninvolved parenting have been linked to negative outcomes such as depression, anxiety, and poor academic performance. Mastery-oriented behavior is unrelated to parenting style.
