Abstract

This study examined cultural moderation of maternal-paternal parenting style differences and their relationships to outcomes of undergraduates in two countries (196 from Turkey and 231 from the USA). Parenting style gender differences were not the same in the two countries, nor were the relationships between parenting styles and students’ self-esteem.
