Adolescent-to-parent violence is known as one of the important challenges in the family system, which is influenced by several factors. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between parenting styles and adolescent-to-parent violence with the mediating role of emotional and behavioral problems. The statistical population included all parents with children aged 12 to 17 in Amol city in 2024, from which 499 people were selected using the convenience sampling method. To collect research data, the Parenting Styles and Dimensions Questionnaire, Child-to-Parent Violence Questionnaire, and Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire were used. The data were analyzed using covariance-based structural equation modeling with the SPSS and AMOS 18 software. The findings from structural equation modeling showed that parenting styles have a significant effect on adolescents' emotional/behavioral problems. Parenting styles did not show a direct effect on adolescent-to-parent violence, but the direct effect of adolescent emotional/behavioral problems on adolescent-to-parent violence was positive and significant. The results indicate that emotional and behavioral problems in adolescents as a mediating factor between parenting styles and adolescent-to-parent violence and that by diagnosing and intervening promptly with these disorders and modifying parenting styles, action can be taken to prevent violence against parents.
