A correlational quantitative design was used, where a total of 150 respondents, aged from 15 to 18 years old, living in Peninsular Malaysia, participated in the research, using snowball sampling method. Google Form was used to spread the survey and IBM SPSS Version 27 was used to analyze data obtained. The research found that authoritarian parenting style had greater effect to young adolescent’ emotional regulation. Result indicated that there was a correlation between authoritarian parenting style and young adolescent’s emotional regulation.
