Subscribe/Renew Journal
The present study described the extent to which the single male and female young adolescents are involved in age- related decision- making areas such as- personal, educational, relationship, leisure, and entertainment, and the extent to which their parents, and family is involved. Forty single male and female youth were assessed using the 'youth decision- making involvement scale'. The results implied that single male youth tend to take suggestions from all family members and involve them jointly in taking decisions for them, which shows a feeling of togetherness and cohesion in the males, while in the case of single female youth, the parents tend to decide for their areas of decision- making reflecting females' dependence and conventional Indian mindset and simultaneously, the parents' care, concern and overprotective attitude towards them. This has brought with itself a new perspective of the modern times.
