摘要:AbstractIn an examination of the relationships between personality characteristics, perfectionism of mothers and the emotional problems of their daughters, two hundred high school students and their mothers were asked to answer Terry-short, Neo-FFI, and Dass-21 questionnaire. To analyze data, Pierson Correlation and Stepwise Regression were used which showed that the relationship between mothers’ negative perfectionism and daughters’ emotional problems was negatively significant. It was observed that mothers’ perfectionism was a predictor of their daughters’ emotional problems. Results demonstrated that neuroticism, extroversion, agreeableness, and conscientiousness of mothers were related to their daughters’ emotional problems. Furthermore, neuroticism and agreeableness were found to be the predictors of daughter's emotional problems.
