Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects that parenting self-efficacy perceptions of fathers have on the peer relations of their 5–6-year-old children. This study was conducted on 200 5–6-year-old preschool children and their fathers. The results of the analysis concluded that there was a low-level negative and significant relationship between the fathers’ parenting efficacies and the aggression, exclusion, hyperactivity–distractibility, and victimisation levels of their children. The results concluded that the parenting self-efficacy level has the best predictor effect on victimisation among the peer relationship variables. Father training programmes should be organised by the preschool teaching departments of universities, and it should be ensured that the fathers of children aged 0–6 participate in these programmes. Training should be offered to fathers of children attending preschool education institutions by these institutions. Different father training programmes should be organised in accordance with arising needs.
