The present study was carried out with the objectives to study the children'ss perception about their parents' parenting and factors influencing their perception in the year 2012-13. The sample comprised 206High School children in the age group of 12-15 years, studying in 7th and 8th standards in government High Schools from 3 villages of Dharwad taluk. Children's perception about parenting was assessed using Bharadwaj et al. (1998) scale. The results revealed that majority of the children had positive perception towards their parents' parenting. This indicated that parents tend to be accepting, protecting, indulgent, realistic, moralistic and disciplining their children. Further, socio-demographic factors such as age, ordinal position, family size, educational level of the father and socio-economic status of the family had significant influence on children's perception about parenting.Keywords

An ex-post-facto design on “Interrelationship between familial characteristics and marital satisfaction of University teachers in Northern Karnataka-A Gender analysis” was carried out on a sample of 150 University teachers drawn from three cities of Northern Karnataka. Teachers offering UG/PG courses in agriculture/science faculty belonging to Assistant professor to Professor and above cadre were randomly selected. Familial characteristics included family environment, family involvement and social support of University teachers assessed using family environment scale developed by Bhatia and Chadha (1993), family involvement scale by Misra et al. (1990) and social support questionnaire by Sarason et al. (1983). Marital satisfaction was assessed using questionnaire developed by Haynes et al. (1992). Results revealed that more than half of State Agricultural University (67.0%) and Non- State Agricultural University (67.3%) teachers had high level of family environment and none of them fell in low level. The family environment of both SAU and Non-SAU teachers differed significantly by gender, indicating that females had better family environment compared to male teachers. Most of the SAU (84.5%) and Non-SAU (85.5%) teachers revealed high level of family involvement and none were in low level. With regard to social support, teachers of SAU (73.8%) and Non-SAU (70.0%) received high social support but none were in low level. High level of marital satisfaction was observed in most of the SAU (83.8%) and Non-SAU (94.1%) teachers and the rest were in average levels. Statistical analysis through ANOVA indicated that there were no main and interactionary effects of university, gender and cadre on marital satisfaction. Positive and significant correlation was observed between family environment and family involvement with marital satisfaction of SAU and Non-SAU teachers. This indicated that the more conducive the family environment the higher the marital satisfaction of both the groups of teachers and vice versa.Keywords
