Abstract
Strong, desirable and mutual relationship between parents and child is necessary so that nurses can achieve their duties and delivery of care to the child. This relationship should be identified in context of family (Style control parenting) in order for the nurses to maintain those parts of family relationship related to nursing duties. Anyhow, the actions should be planned in a manner that be well-adjusted with children' morale and help to decrease child's anxiety. The present descriptive correlation study aims to determine the relationship of behavioral models of parent with their children’s anxiety (370 students in age 13-15) in 10 governmental girl guidance schools, Dist. 6 of Tehran city. The tools were questionnaires planned for students and parents consisting demographic characteristics, physiologic symptoms of anxiety, Spiel Berger Anxiety Test for parents and Reynolds and Richmond Anxiety Tests for students. The amount of anxiety among these groups was analyzed using Chi-square Test and Fisher Exact Test in SPSS statistical software. Results showed that the amount of anxiety among students was 33% with the most anxiety (92%) among adolescents who evaluated their parents' behavior as autocratic (p = 0.001) and the least anxiety (7.6%) in adolescents who had democratic parents (p = 0.003). These findings shows that there is statistically significant relationship between anxiety and style control parenting (p<0.05), (df = 2). Style control parenting plays an important role in children’s anxiety, therefore health care providers can be effective in decreasing children' anxiety by teaching style control parenting.
