Abstract

The main purpose of this study was to explore the moderating effects of fathers' current psychological well-being in the relationships between fathers' experienced parenting from the family of origin and their parenting attitudes to their children. The subjects themselves consisted of 370 fifth-and sixth-grade children and their fathers from elementary schools in Seoul and Daegu. Questionnaires containing items related to experienced parenting and the current psychological well-being reported by fathers and fathers' parenting attitudes reported by their children were used. Regression analyses revealed that a fathers' 'independent encouraging' attitude to their children was predicted by a fathers' psychological well-being whereas a fathers' 'acceptance' attitudes was predicted by both a fathers' experienced 'acceptance' parenting and their psychological well-being. Further, a fathers' psychological well-being played a moderate role in the relationship between fathers' experienced 'independent encouraging' parenting from the family of origin and their 'independent encouraging' attitude to their children.
