Abstract
The current study aimed to examine relationship between
juvenile based crime reenactment programs and the perceived
parental stress related to it. Researchers hypothesized that there
is an association between exposures to juvenile based crime
reenactment programs and perceived parental stress. The sample
comprised of 157 parents. A survey was conducted in Islamabad,
based on purposive as well as convenient sampling. Data
collection measures comprised demographic sheet, exposure to
juvenile crime reenactment programs and Impact of Events Scale
(IES). Factor Analysis was performed which constructed five
factors i.e. effects on mental health; stress increase; effect on
health; ability to handle situation and social Isolation. Moreover,
Pearson Product-Moment Correlation test was performed to see
the association between the exposures to juvenile based crime
reenactment programs and perceived parental stress. A
significant relationship was found between the juvenile crime
base programs and perceived parental stress.
