Adolescents’ behavior can be influenced by a variety of factors, including the style of parenting adolescents experienced during their upbringing. Authoritative style, which is high in both responsiveness and demandingness, is consider as the best style of parenting as it is associate with positive outcomes in adolescents’ behavior. In contrast, the authoritarian approach, is characterized in high demandingness by the parents but lacking the supportive aspect found in authoritative parenting. Lastly, permissive style where parents show warmth and affection but lack in parental control, can lead to problematic behaviors. This research explores the relationship between different parenting styles (authoritative, authoritarian, and permissive) and the prediction of externalizing problem behaviors among adolescents in Selangor. Purposive sampling was implemented to identify 216 adolescents (ages 13–18) who are currently living in Selangor. The Youth Self Report 11–18 (YSR 11–18) and the Parental Authority Questionnaire (PAQ) were the two measures used in this study. The study utilized a quantitative and cross-sectional design. Additionally, the Pearson Correlation and Multiple Linear Regression analyses were used to examine data. The findings indicated that both authoritarian and permissive styles were positively correlated with externalizing behaviors, whereas the authoritative approach showed no correlation. Furthermore, the authoritarian style of parenting significantly predicted the contribution to externalizing behavioral problems among adolescents.
