Abstract

The aim of the present study was to adapt the Parenting Styles & Dimensions Questionnaire to Turkish. The original scale was developed by Robinson, Mandleco, Olsen, & Hart (1995) and it aimed to evaluate 4-12 years old children's mother's and father's parenting styles. The Turkish version of the scale was administered to mothers and fathers of 320 preschool children of 5-6 years-old and the validity and reliability of the scale were tested.
