Abstract

The aim of this research was to examine gender and age differences in locus of control and susceptibility to peer influence, and to examine the relationship between percieved parental behavior, locus of control in adolescents and their susceptibility to peer influence. The research was conducted in two gymnasiums in Zagreb. The participants were first- and forth- grade students, 3 classes of each - 73 male and 85 female participants in total. Tests used were Parental Behavior Questionnaire (URP, Kuterovac-Jagodić, Keresteš, Brković), Rotter's Internal-External scale (Rotter, 1966) and Peer Influence Questionnaire (Lebedina-Manzoni, Ricijaš, 2006). The results point to a more external locus of control in female adolescents, and greater susceptibility to peer influence in male adolescents. Results point to a more external locus of control in older students. Adolescents with more internal locus of control perceive fathers' parental behavior as more positive. A relationship between locus of control and other dimensions of parental behaviour and peer influence was not found. Percieved negative parenthoud of both parents is significantly correlated to greater susceptibility to peer influence.
