Hence, 200 parents of children with cancer were selected from a number of hospitals in Tehran through convenient sampling. Regression analysis revealed that the factors, conflicts in child-parent relationship, parents’ depression, child's female gender, and positive aspects of child-parent relationship were predictive of internalizing behaviors. Also, child-parent relational conflicts and deficits in expressing emotions in family were predictive of externalizing behaviors in these children.
