| description | Parenting styles play an active role in maintaining a healthy parent-child relationship. The digital media tools that have emerged with the development of technology and digitalization occupy an important place in the lives of Generation Z children, who were born in the digital world. Parents are developing new parenting styles for digitalization to both support and protect their children from potential risks of this now indispensable element for children. The study examines how these digital parenting attitudes affect the relationship between parents and their children. The study involved a structured survey of 400 parents of Gen-Z teens. Digital parenting attitudes were examined in the sub-dimensions of supporting children’s use of digital media tools and protecting them from the potential risks of these tools, and multiple regression analysis was used to measure the effect of these dimensions on the parent-child relationship. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were used to test the validity and reliability of the scales used. As a result of the research, it was found that both dimensions had a positive and significant effect on the parent-child relationship. |
