The Relationship Between Risk-Taking Based on Perception of Parenting Styles and Adolescent Alexithymia, With the Meditating Role of Perceived Social Support and the Extent of Social Media Use with Moderating Role of Gender
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background and Purpose: The occurrence of risky behaviors in Iranian society has turned into a social concern.Additionally, risk-taking affects the health of adolescents negatively and it is suggested that committing risk-taking behaviors at least once during adolescence is associated with the likelihood of other problems and maladjustment in adulthood.Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the structural relationship between risk-taking based on parenting styles and Alexithymia in adolescents from the city of Mashhad, with the mediating role of perceived social support and the extent of social media use with the regulating role of gender. Methods:The method of the present study is applied and correlational.The population consisted of all the high school students aged 14-18 in the first, third, and fifth districts of Mashhad, during the second semester of the 2021-2022 academic year.The sample consisted of 600 students in ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades selected based on convenience sampling.The data collection for the study included the Iranian Adolescents' Risk-Taking Scale (Zadeh Mohammadi, 2011), The Toronto Alexithymia Scale (Taylor, 1986), The Perception of Parenting Styles Questionnaire (Grolnick et al., 1997), The Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support Questionnaire (Zimet et al., 1988), and the Scale of Social Media Use Questionnaire (Hosseini Esfidvadjani, 2021).Data analysis was conducted using path analysis modeling and test of mediating effects in the proposed model with the bootstrap method using SPSS 26 and AMOS 24 software.Results: The results of this study indicate that the proposed model fits well with the data.A significant negative relationship can be detected between the perception of parenting styles and perceived social support with risk-taking in both girls and boys.In addition, a significant positive relationship is detected between alexithymia and risk-taking in both girls and boys (P<0.01).Furthermore, the study confirms the mediating role of social support and the extent of social media use in relation to perceiving parenting styles and alexithymia with adolescent risk-taking (p<0.01).Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, we can state that the variables of perceived social support and the extent of social media use play a mediating role in the relationship between risktaking and the perception of parenting style and alexithymia in adolescent girls and boys.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
