THE INFLUENCE OF FAMILY DECISION-MAKING ON THE INTERNALIZATION OF GENDER ROLES IN ADOLESCENTS
Keywords:
family decision-making, gender roles, adolescentsAbstract
This study examines how family decision-making practices affect the internalization of gender roles in adolescents. The research focuses on the relationship between who predominantly makes important family decisions—father, mother, or shared decision-making—and how adolescents assimilate masculine, feminine, or androgynous traits. The study explores whether paternal-dominated decision-making reinforces traditional masculine roles in boys and passive or supportive roles in girls, and whether egalitarian decision-making fosters flexible social roles and higher social adaptation in both genders.
