Abstract:
This current correlational research design was used in the present study to examine the
relationships between parent-child bonds, personality traits, and social behaviors in young adults.
It was hypothesized that there is a relationship between parent-child bonding, personality traits,
and social behavior in young adults. The sample included 300 young people (N=300) including
men (n=180) and women (n=120) in different age groups about 20 to 30 years. Appropriate
sampling methods were used to collect data from a variety of adults. A convenience sampling
strategy was used to approach participants and collect data. A 10-item personality
inventory(Gosling et al., 2003), parental bonding instrument (Parker et al., 1979), and adult
social behavior scale (Caprara et al. 2005) were used to evaluate the relationships between
parental bond, personality traits, and social behavior in young adults. The results were calculated
using SPSS 26 Pearson moment correlation coefficient,usingHierarchical regression analysis and
sample T-Test as additional analysis. In support of this hypothesis, there was a significant
correlation between parental bonding, personality traits and social behavior in young adults,
there was a significance variance in parental bonding and Prosocial behavior on the basis of
family system and parental bonding and personality traits strongly predicting Prosocial behavior.
This research will help mental health professionals develop programs for adults to develop
prosocial behaviors and contribute to society in the service of humanity and help adults to
become kind and humble human beings
