Study Of The Effect Of Parenting Styles On Values Of Love And Marriage Of Graduate Students

Todays graduate students provide the foundation for future societal development.Holding healthy values of love and marriage not only dictates how successful they will be in school,but is also significant for the health of their body and mind.Graduate students are of the age that dating and marriage are common and natural occurrences.Moreover,dating and marriage represent two of the deepest biological and psychological needs we have as humans.Cultivating healthy habits and behavior,therefore,is of great importance.This study begins with the analysis of parenting styles,building upon a multitude of previous studies and integrating classical theories.Utilizing two separate surveys,on which were then performed data analysis(both on the survey group and for the reliability and effectiveness of the the survey itself).After distributing the surveys,collecting them and organizing the data collected,the results were then,analyze the current state of parenting styles and relationship values of current graduate students.Lastly we used demographic data to perform variance analysis on the results of our survey.We used SPSS software to analyze our data,revealing the internal relationships between parenting styles and relationship values held by graduate students – filling the void of empirical quantitative research on the subject.The results of this research make clear: 1.The second of the two surveys(edited)possesses a high level of both reliability and accuracy,it provides an accurate reflection of the present state of graduate student's relationship values;2.Graduate student's values in general appear to be above average,demonstrating that the majority of students hold healthy values;3.Parenting styles in general appear to be above average,demonstrating that the majority of parents employ healthy and effective parenting styles;4.There is a clear relationship between parenting styles and the relationship values held by graduate students – parenting style affects children's motivation for dating,inclination towards marriage,marital values,level of autonomy in marriage,role in marriage,faithfulness in marriage,sexual choices and even their conception of breakups.In the process of teaching graduate student's healthy relationship values,we must also consider the influence of home education in the curriculum taught by universities' mental health education programs,at the same time we cannot forget to account for the powerful effect of societal norms on the individual.Since this study employs an empirical quantitative method,the results generated are both applied and generalizable – providing theoretical reference for subsequent studies of psychological health education in regards to the marital values of graduate students.
