THEORETICAL AND CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK:

For our conceptual paradigm, the focus of this study is all about mothers.
They are the sole benefactor of our study. Women today want to do
everything perfect. Cooking, cleaning and even in the corporate world, it has
been dominated by women. The researchers came up with the idea to
classify mothers into two: the working and the non-working.
Parenting style plays a big role in a child development. It is important for the
parent to play their role in guiding and disciplining their child especially for
mothers. Psychologist Diana Baumrind identified four patterns of parenting
styles based upon two aspects of parenting behavior: (1) care and (2)
protect.
Care or often referred to as the parental warmth. It is the degree to which
parents are accepting and responsive to their childrens needs and behavior
and Protect which is also known as parental control, it refers to the degree to
which parents manage their childrens behavior from being very controlling
to setting few rules and demands.
The researchers associate Diana Baumrinds Pareting Styles with Leon
Manns Melbourne Decision Making Questionnaire. We want to find out if
mothers parenting style do influence their childrens decision making
approach. Professor Mann classified Decision Making into four approaches:
Hyper vigilance (hurried), vigilance (careful), buck passing (avoid) and
procrastination (delay).

SAMPLING TECHNIQUE:
Purposive sampling is the sampling technique that is used in this study. The
researchers used this sampling by asking potential respondents a list of
qualifications and sort qualified participants.

SOP #3:
Men and women approach problems with similar goals but with different
considerations. Their approach and their process are often quite different.
According to the results in the comparison of males and females decision
making, both genders have a significant difference in the buck passing
decision making style. Women use other peoples opinions to help make their
own decisions; they consider others opinions while men use other people's

decisions to help them form their own opinion. They vary in the way they
pass or avoid decision making.

The hyper vigilance, vigilance, and procrastination decision making styles

are found to be irrelevant. To further explain it, the researchers presented
the means and standard deviations of the variables.

Based on the data gathered:

Women are more likely to make risky decisions compared to men. Men rely
easily and more heavily on their left brain (organize and systematic) to solve
one problem one step at a time while women used their right brain (creative
and intuitive) more often.
Females are more careful when deciding. Women tend to ask a lot of
peoples advice before finally come up with a decision.
In terms of buck passing and procrastination, there is a notable interval
between male and female. It affirms the results shown in table 3. Men are
more likely to avoid, pass and delay decisions. Decision making is closely
related to maturity, a womens brain mature at the age 22 while men on 30.
