The main purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between adolescents’ perceptions of maternal parenting practices, maternal attachment, and subjective well-being. The participants were 787 junior high school students who lived with their mothers in Taipei City or New Taipei City. The results showed that, first of all, the adolescents perceived their mothers as performing an above average frequency of “warmth/inductive reasoning” and “monitoring,” and that their mothers rarely utilized “harsh corporal punishment.” Moreover, regarding maternal attachment, the adolescents perceived a high level of “trust/communication,” and a low level of “alienation.” As for their subjective well-being, the adolescents perceived a high level of “satisfaction with life,” an above average frequency of “positive affect,” and a below average frequency of “negative affect.” Secondly, the adolescents’ perceptions of most aspects of maternal parenting practices and maternal attachment were significantly correlated with their subjective well-being; the only exception was the maternal parenting practices of “monitoring,” which was not correlated with “negative affect.” Finally, the adolescents’ perceptions of maternal parenting practices of “warmth/ inductive reasoning” and maternal attachment of “trust/ communication” had significant positive effects on the aspects of “satisfaction with life” and “positive affect.” In addition, the adolescents’ perceptions of maternal attachment of “alienation” had significant negative effects on “satisfaction with life.” Furthermore, the adolescents’ perceptions of maternal parenting practices of “harsh corporal punishment” and maternal attachment of “alienation” had significant effects on “negative affect.” |
