GRANJA, Maria Bárbara y PINHEIRO MOTA, Catarina. Parenting Styles and Romantic Attachment: The mediating Effect of Psychological Well-being in Young Adults. Av. Psicol. Latinoam. [online]. 2018, vol.36, n.1, pp.93-109. ISSN 1794-4724. https://doi.org/10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/apl/a.5584.
Primordial figures and parenting styles are especially relevant to the way that young adults establish relationships and transitions over their emotional journeys. Satisfactory relations within the parent-child dyad play a leading role in establishing secure romantic relationships and maintaining or increasing the psychological well-being of young adults. This study aims to analyze the effect of parenting styles on the romantic relationships of young adults and to test the mediating role of psychological well-being in the parent-child association. The sample included 787 university students between 18 and 25 years of age. Data collection was performed using the following self-reporting instruments: the Parental Styles and Dimensions Questionnaire: Short Version (PSDQ), the Romantic Attachment Questionnaire, and the Psychological Well-being Measurement Scale. The results point to a positive predictor effect of democratic parenting styles in relation to psychological well-being and trust in romantic attachments, as well as a negative effect on ambivalence regarding romantic attachment and dependence on that attachment. Psychological well-being also functions as a variable mediating the association between democratic parenting styles and romantic attachment.
