Abstract

The school adaptation of adolescents has a profound impact on their individual growth and future development. Among them, the parenting style of parents in the family is a crucial factor that directly shapes the independent personality and school adaptation ability of adolescent students. This study selected 300 adolescents as subjects. Professional tools such as the “Adolescent Student Independence Personality Scale” compiled by Xia Lingxiang, the “Short Form of Parenting Style Questionnaire” revised by Jiang et al., and the “Junior High School Student School Adaptation Questionnaire” compiled by Cui Na were used. The following conclusions were drawn: (1) All three variables have significant demographic differences; (2) There is a significant correlation among the three variables; (3) Independent personality plays an incomplete mediating role between mother’s parenting style and school adaptation; (4) Independent personality plays an incomplete mediating role between father’s parenting style and school adaptation.
