Abstract
The present study aimed to identify relationship between
perceived parenting style, perceived parental acceptancerejection (PAR) and perception of God among young adults.
Participants were young males and females (N= 50 each) of
Rawalpindi, Pakistan who completed three protocols,
Perception of God Inventory, Parental Authority Questionnaire
and Parental Acceptance-Rejection (PARQ: Adult version).
Maternal authoritarian perceived parenting was found to be
positively related with authoritarian perception of God in males
whereas paternal authoritarian perceived parenting was
negatively related with friendly perception of God in females.
Perceived paternal authoritative parenting was positively
related with friendly perception of God in males and perceived
maternal permissive parenting was negatively related with
protective perception of God in males. Further, overall
perceived parental rejection (mothers & father) was negatively
related with benevolent and protective perception of God.
There was a negative relationship between the perceived
parental hostility/aggressive, indifference/neglect,
undifferentiated rejection and the benevolent, friendly and
protective perception of God.
