Question

for a bivariate data, the following information is obtained:
xi-2=3, yi-7=2, xi-2(yi-7)=-132,

xi-22=55, yi-72=372, n = 7 .

Find the two lines of regression.

Answer 1

Answer:

The proximal relationship of parent to child ensures that each

exerts a strong influence on the other. In caring for their children,

parents influence their children through specific practices. These

childcare practices go a long way to influence development even as

youths. This research investigates the relationship between childcare

issues, parenting style and youth anti-social behaviour. Using A

sample of 44 youth volunteers living within Keffi LGA, Nasarawa

State comprising males (77.3%) and females (22.7%) of which (50%)

were below 15years of age, (34.1%) were between ages 15-20, and

(15.9%) were above 20 years of age, (79.5%) were from nuclear families

while (20.5%) were from polygamous or extended families. Children

raised by permissive parents experienced more parental support

(53.4%), similar to children raised by authoritarian parents (54.2%),

while about (60%) of children raised by Authoritative parents

reported to have experienced less parental support .Results from this

study found out that parents in Nasarawa state adopt permissive

(34.1%) and authoritarian (54.5%) parenting styles. As parental

support increases, the level of anti-social behaviour among youths

reduces, but not in all cases (r = -.109, N = 44, df = 1, p = .112 > .05).

Parents are to spend time with their children right from infancy as this

bond shapes the children for the rest of their lives.
