Özet

One of the factors affecting the functionality of the family is parenting attitudes. This study examines the effect of the parenting attitudes of women on the functionality of the family they establish. The study was designed with a quantitative research method and conducted in a relational screening model. The study group consists of 626 married women aged 18-65, having at least 5 years of marital experience. Data were collected using the "Family Assessment Scale" and the "Young Parenting Scale" and analyzed using the IBM SPSS 22 program. According to the results obtained from the study, it was determined that the parenting attitudes of the women included in the study significantly affected the family functionality of their mothers by 5% to 12%. The functionality of the families women establish is negatively affected by the condescending, emotionally depriving, and prescriptive parenting attitudes of their mothers.
