Abstract

This study focuses on the effects of different partner quality, parent-child relationship and parenting styles on adolescents' mental health. A total of 153 subjects from the ninth to eleventh grades of an international school in Beijing were selected to complete the questionnaire, and the data obtained were statistically analyzed using spss. The results of the study showed that parent-child relationship has an important effect on adolescents, and parenting style is more important in some qualities, so parents should get along with their children reasonably.
