Abstract

This study aims to make a comparison of students' self-adjustment seen from three parenting styles. In this case it is compared between adjustments where parents are authoritarian and democratic, those who are authoritarian and permissive, and between democratic and permissive. The sample in this study was 100 people taken randomly from a population of 150 people. Data collection techniques using a Likert questionnaire scale. Technical data analysis using the two average difference test (T test). Tests showed that there were differences in the adjustment abilities of groups of students with authoritarian and democratic parents, there were differences in the adjustment abilities of groups of students with democratic and permissive parents, there were no differences in the adjustment abilities of groups of students with authoritarian and permissive parents. In the sense that the adjustment ability of the group of students whose parents apply democratic parenting is higher than the adjustment ability of the group of students whose parents are authoritarian and permissive.
