It seems like a bug or at least a 'feature'. LabelStyle includes ticks, you
don't need both, and it seems that TicksStyle gets in the way of LabelStyle.
You could use these, if you want them both the same.
Plot[x^2, {x, -1, 1},
AxesLabel -> {"x", "f(x)"},
LabelStyle -> Directive[FontSize -> Scaled[.08]]]
Plot[x^2, {x, -1, 1},
AxesLabel -> {"x", "f(x)"},
BaseStyle -> {FontSize -> Scaled[.08]}]
You could control them separately with:
Plot[x^2, {x, -1, 1},
AxesLabel -> {"x", "f(x)"},
BaseStyle -> {FontSize -> Scaled[.08]},
TicksStyle -> Directive[Red, FontSize -> Scaled[.03]]]

It would seem that the code below should give the same font size to the
tick labels as it does to the axis labels, yet it does not (on my 7.0.0
running on OS 10.6.2). Does anyone know what's going on here?
Plot[x^2, {x, -1, 1}, AxesLabel -> {"x", "f(x)"},
LabelStyle -> Directive[FontSize -> Scaled[.05]],
TicksStyle -> Directive[FontSize -> Scaled[.05]]]
Best,
Robert
