Abstract

Autonomy is a crucial developmental challenge in adolescence, especially as it is closely related to adolescents’ ability to develop individual autonomy and form their own identity. Adolescents who are not autonomy may experience various consequences that can affect their personal and social development. The main objective of this study is to analyze the influence maternal parenting style, mamak (uncle/ mother’s brother) parenting style, mother-adolescent attachment, and moral character parenting on the autonomy of ethnic Minangkabau adolescents. This study used an explanatory design by utilizing questionnaires to collect data in selected schools in Lintau Buo District, West Sumatra in March-May 2024. Participant were selected based on non–probability sampling, namely purposive sampling with a total of 221 respondents. The collected data were processed with reliability test, validity test, and structural relationship model (SEM). Parenting style, attachment and moral character parenting have a direct effect on adolescent autonomy.
