- Abstract
To explore the influence of parenting styles on college students’ job-hunting stress (JHS) and to examine the mediating role of self-efficacy. A survey of 411 undergraduate graduating students at a university was conducted using the Parenting Style Inventory, the Job-Hunting Stress Scale, and the General Self-Efficacy Scale. The results showed that parental care and encouragement of autonomy were significantly negatively related to JHS and significantly positively related to self-efficacy. Parental control was significantly positively related to JHS and significantly positively related to self-efficacy. JHS was significantly negatively related to self-efficacy. Also, College students’ self-efficacy partially mediates the effect of parenting style on college students’ JHS. It concludes that parenting styles reduce college students’ JHS by increasing self-efficacy.
