Abstract

The aim of this study is to characterize young adults’ memories of mother and father acceptance and rejection and to analyse different patterns of mother and father perception of acceptance and rejection for girls and boys. The research was developed in a sample of 180 Portuguese university students and the instruments used were the Adult-PARQ Father (short form) (Rohner, 2004), the Adult-PARQ Mother (short form) (Rohner, 2004) and a sociodemographic questionnaire. The preliminary results evidenced that Adult-PARQ Father and Adult-PARQ Mother (short form) (Rohner, 2004) have very good psychometric characteristics and that there is a statistically significant difference between boys and girls perceptions of mother and father acceptation and hostility-aggression.
