ABSTRACT
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between marital instability, parenting practice, and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorders in children. Purposive sampling techniques were followed to select 386 parents from Dhaka city as a sample in this research. Bangla version of matrimonial instability scale, the parenting practice four-factor questionnaire was administered to measure the participants’ marital instability and parenting style. Bangla version of the ADHD rating scale was also applied to the same respondents to identify their children’s attention deficit hyperactivity symptoms. Obtained data were analyzed by employing descriptive statistics, correlation, and stepwise multiple regression methods. The findings of this study revealed that matrimonial instability of parents (59.9%), involvement in parenting style (16.6%), and authoritarian parenting (0.8%) are the best predictors of developing attention deficit hyperactivity symptoms among the children. The results of this research have been interpreted in the light of past studies.
