Abstract
I examined the relationship between father-child bonding and conflict resolution during emerging adulthood, using the Turkish version (Kapçı & Küçüker, 2006) of the Parental Bonding Instrument – Paternal Form (PBI; Parker, Tupling, & Brown, 1979), and the Conflict Resolution Questionnaire (McClellan, 1997). Participants were 672 students at Kirikkale University in Turkey. Results indicated that father-child bonding affected both constructive and destructive conflict resolution positively at a low level. These findings provide information with regard to the direction and intensity of the relationship between these variables, and are discussed with respect to the literature.
