Step 1: After having a look at the code book for Add health, i am interested in it. I have a 4 years old daughter and i think a study from this code book will help me in long term.
Step 2&3: My topic of interest is:
Relationship between loving parents and patterns of decision making in this young adults age group.
Step 4: The 2nd topic that i would like to explore is: Is a confident adolescent satisfied with his/her life.

Summary of findings:
1. Maternal behavior has a linkage to Depressive disorder in Adoloscent
2. Problems like depression,stress and low self esteem are negatively related to adaptive parenting behavior.
My hypothesis is that:
Children of loving parents are more confident
And a confident Adolescent is satisfied with his/her life.

Summary of findings:
1. Maternal behavior has a linkage to Depressive disorder in Adoloscent
2. Problems like depression,stress and low self esteem are negatively related to adaptive parenting behavior.
3. Associations between perceived parent-adolescent relations and a normative style were positive and those with a diffuse-avoidant style were negative.
4. Confidence can be associated to risk taking and which may not always mean a happy and satisfied life.
5.Happiness and Confidence are highly linked.
My hypothesis is that:
Children of loving parents are more confident
And a confident Adolescent is satisfied with his/her life.
