Abstract

The current study explores the impact of radicalization and parenting on delinquent behavior in youth from Swat (KP), Pakistan. A correlational research design was used in this study, data was collected from 100 male participants. Participants were aged 18-34 years. These participants were from similar cultural backgrounds. They all experienced delinquent behavior. They were approached by (District Swat) KP. Three standardized instruments were applied in this study, including the Extremism Scale, Parenting Style Scale, and Delinquent Behavior Scale. Results revealed a significant positive correlation between parenting and delinquent behavior but no significant relationship between radicalization and delinquent behavior. These results emphasise the critical impact of parenting in shaping youth behavior and offer localized insights for preventive interventions.
