The study examines the role of the Parent- child relationship, family conflict on self- silencing behaviour and how it is expressed in a romantic relationship. Parent- child relationship was studied in terms of maternal responsibility, maternal regard, paternal control, paternal regard and paternal responsibility for the young adults. A t-test was also run to check for significant differences between the male and female sample. The analysis showed that there were no significant differences between male and female self-silencing behaviour. To test the hypothesis that the parent child relationship variables and family conflict has an influence on self- silencing behaviour, a correlation analysis was performed to test for significant relationships between the parent-child relationship variables, family conflict and self silencing. A regression analysis was also run to check for variables that could predict self silencing behaviour. Results have shown that a significant correlation was found between self- silencing behaviour and maternal responsibility, self- silencing and paternal responsibility and self- silencing and paternal control. No correlation was found between family conflict and self- silencing behaviour. In addition, the regression analysis showed that maternal responsibility, paternal responsibility and paternal control were predictors of self silencing behaviour. These findings can help us ease the therapeutic process and better personalize therapy.Metrics
