Abstract

The current study examined the connections between parental authority, cessation of innovation, and emotional empathy among students. College students (300) completed questionnaires utilizing convenient sampling. The parental authority questionnaire (PAQ), Urdu version by Shaiza Khalid (2004), was used in the current study to investigate parenting styles. The creative behaviour inventory (CBI), developed by Hocevar(1979), was translated into Urdu by the researcher and was used to examine the discontinuation of innovation in the current study. The emotional empathy scale (EES) in Urdu by Ashraf (2004)was utilized toto investigate the emotional empathy variable. Participants in the study were first-, second-, third-- ---, and fourth-year college students. Male college students comprised 47.7% of the sample, while female students comprised 55.3%. The study's findings indicate that males exhibited higher levels of emotional empathy than females. Based on socioeconomic background, upper-class members exhibit high levels of inventiveness, whereas middle-class members have high levels of emotional empathy. College-age males score well on parental authority. Additionally, research indicates that parental authority negatively impacts both creativity and emotional empathy among college students. To extend the generalized ability, future research should expand the population size. And the geographical area of the study can be developed.
