The study was conducted on 729 students of whom 344 were men and 384 were women with a mean age of 21 years. The self-report scales used gathered data around demographics, recalled parental acceptance-rejection, adult attachment, interpersonal style, and psychological well-being. The results showed that adult attachment mediates the relationship between perceived parental acceptance-rejection and psychological well-being with the effect of the dysfunctional detachment having a greater effect than the destructive overdependence. Finally, the only interpersonal style that proved to act as a mediating factor was the healthy dependency. Findings contribute to the further understanding of the degree, but also of the way in which the acceptance-rejection by parents during childhood can affect the psychological  well-being of the individual in later stages of lifespan.</em></p>}, journal={ELEUTHERNA}, author={Ψωμά Σοφία and Γιοβαζολιάς Θεόδωρος}, year={2021}, month={Oct.}, pages={47–76} }
