THE INFLUENCE OF FAMILY LEADERSHIP ON EARLY CHILDHOOD INTERPERSONAL INTELLIGENCE

Mahlida Farina

Abstract


Interpersonal intelligence in early childhood is strongly influenced by the surrounding environment, particularly the family setting. The leadership of the head of the family is believed to play a crucial role in supporting the development of children's social abilities. This study aims to examine the extent to which family leadership contributes to the interpersonal intelligence of young children. A quantitative approach with a survey method was employed, involving 30 parents of early childhood children as respondents. The instrument used was a closed-ended questionnaire utilizing a Likert scale. Data were analyzed using simple linear regression with the assistance of Jamovi software. The analysis revealed that family leadership has a significant influence on children's interpersonal intelligence, with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.553 and a significance level of p < 0.001. These findings highlight the importance of parental roles in providing guidance, maintaining open communication, and modeling appropriate behavior to support children’s social development from an early age.
