The statistical population consisted of all mothers with preschool children in Shahroud in the academic year of 2017-2018. Using convenient sampling method, 30 mothers were selected and then randomly assigned into two experimental groups (15) and control (15). The experimental group was taught parenting skills in 8 sessions of 90 minutes, while the control group did not receive any training. The instruments used for data collection were Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) (Godman, 2001) and Pentecost-Paternal Relationship Scale (Pianeta, 1994). Data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance
Results: Findings showed that parenting skills training had a significant effect on reducing emotional and behavioral problems and its components such as attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder, coduct problems, peer problems, and desirable social behaviors. In addition, the present study confirmed the effectiveness of parenting skills training on parent-child relationship and the components of conflict, proximity and dependency (P <0.001).
Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that parenting skills training improve mothers' knowledge of how to communicate positively with their child, how to reinforce positive child behaviors, and how to manage high-risk situations. Therefore, the intervention program used in this study was able to improve the emotional-behavioral problems and the parent-child relationship.
