Abstract

 Family satisfaction is one of the determinants of mental health and satisfaction in student life. There is a question of whether parenting styles and agreeableness can affect university students' satisfaction with their families. The aim of this study was to evaluate simple and multiple relationships of parenting styles (authoritative motherhood, authoritative fatherhood, authoritarian motherhood, authoritarian fatherhood, permissive motherhood and permissive fatherhood) and agreeableness with family satisfaction in students. The statistical population of this study included all Shahid Chamran university  students in Ahvaz.  From this population, a total of 162 students were selected by multistage random sampling. The Parental Authority Questionnaire (PAQ), the Neo Personality Questionnaire (NEO-FFI) and the Family Satisfaction Scale (FSS) were used to collect the required data. The results of simple correlation analysis showed that there were significant positive correlations between authoritative motherhood, authoritative fatherhood, permissive motherhood, permissive fatherhood and agreeableness with family satisfaction. Also, the relationships of authoritarian motherhood and authoritarian fatherhood with family satisfaction were negative.  The results of regression analysis showed that authoritative motherhood, agreeableness, authoritarian fatherhood and permissive motherhood accounted for %28 of variance of family satisfaction.
