Abstract
There were controversial research findings about the sources or nature of parentadolescent conflict especially about the particular gender and sub-stages of adolescence in which frequent parent- adolescent conflict occurs. Hence this research was intended to investigate parent-adolescent conflict as a function of adolescent sex, sub-stage, parents’ educational level. Moreover, whether adolescent sex and sub stages affect or influence was investigated on 100 research participants in Dejach Belay Zeleke Secondary School. Descriptive and inferential statistics were employed for data analysis. The study found that academic and disciplinary issues of conflict were found to be the sources of conflict between parents and adolescents. The sex and age difference over domains of conflict were found to be not significant though, the male participants observed as conflict makers than females except in autonomy issue. Similarly, age range 14-16 was found to be more conflict makers over domains of conflict than 17-19 years old participants except in autonomy issue. There is no relationship between academic issue of conflict and educational level of father. The relationship of disciplinary, autonomy and conversational style issues of conflict with parental educational level (father and mother) was found to be weak.
