Аннотация:The paper contains the findings of a study directed at exploring the psychological
features of child-parent relationships in complete and incomplete families on an Uzbekistani
sample. As the literature review shows, on the development of the relationship between
adolescents and the parent an important role is taken by the presence of the father in the family
(Sarkadi et al.,2008; Opondo et al., 2016; Kroll et al., 2016, Buckley & Schoppe‐Sullivan,
2010; Makadei, 2010). This is supported by works that show the unique importance of the
father in the development of children and adolescents (Buckley&Schoppe‐Sullivan, 2010;
Luijten et al., 2021; Nogueira Avelar E Silva et al., 2016; Keizer et al., 2019; Lewis and Lamb,
2003). The survey was conducted with 272 adolescents aged 13 to 17 years, broken down by
males (N=128; 47.1%) and females (N=144; 52.9%), to examine child-parent relationships in
complete and incomplete families. Among adolescents, 85.3% (N=232) were raised in
complete families and 14.7% (N=40) in single-parent families. Methods included
questionnaires such as the “Family Environment Scale” in the Russian-language adaptation by
S.Y. Kupriyanov and “Parent-Child Interaction” by I.I. Markovskaya. The results showed that
in full families there was more control and insistence in the parental attitudes expressed by
mothers towards their daughters. In incomplete families, there was greater emotional
acceptance between the daughter and the mother. Meanwhile, incomplete families are less
diverse both in family system indicators and in child-parent relationship patterns.
