Abstract	Introduction: The aim of the present study was to explore the relationship between test anxiety and parenting style. Method: Democratic attitude of parents, acceptance of parents by the child, parental attitude regarding academics, parental expectations and gender stereotyped perceptions of parents regarding academics were evaluated in the domain of parenting style in a convenience sample of 207 students and 200 mothers. Results: A statistically significant negative correlation was observed between test anxiety and democratic attitude of parents and acceptance of parents by the child. Conclusion: Inculcating a democratic style of parenting and greater acceptance of parents among children may prevent or ameliorate test anxiety. (Contains 1 table.) (As Provided).
