Abstract

The aim of present study examined the association between perceived parenting styles and emotional intelligence in Iranian boy students. The sample size was 188 boy students (age from 16 to 19) were chosen by a multi-stage cluster sampling method. For gathering data, students filled out Parental bonding instrument (PBI), and Assessing Emotions Scale (AES). To analyze the data, Pearson correlation coefficient and multivariate regression analysis were used. The findings revealed there were positive associations between affectionate constraint parenting style, and optimal parenting style with high ability of emotional intelligence, and negative associations existed between affectionless control style and neglectful parenting style with high ability of emotional intelligence. The affectionate constraint parenting style was a powerful predictor of high ability of emotional intelligence, and neglectful parenting style was a plausible predictor of low ability of emotional intelligence in adolescents.
