Abstract

This research was conducted with the aim of comparing parent-child relationships among women with and without running away from home. The research method was causal-comparative (post-event). This research was conducted in 2023 in Iran. The studied population includes all women who have experienced running away from home and have referred to one of the centers in one of the provinces. The statistical sample consisted of 60 people (30 people with experience of running away from home and 30 people without experience of running away from home) from the members of the aforementioned statistical community, who were selected by available sampling method. The instrument used was Finney and Schaubel's parent-child relationship questionnaire. For data analysis, descriptive and inferential statistics (multivariate analysis of variance and t-test of two independent samples) were used using SPSS version 26 software. The results showed that the average father-child relationship and mother-child relationship of women with experience of running away from home was significantly lower than women without experience of running away from home.
