Abstract: To test the mediating effect of adolescents' self-control and regulatory focus between different parenting styles and adolescents' resilience, this study invited 922 adolescents (Mean age=14.99 years, SD=1.90, including 367 boys) to complete the S-EMBU (Swedish acronym for Egna Minnen Betraffande Uppfostran[My memories of upbringing]) for Chinese (S-EMBU-C), Regulatory Focus scale, Self-control scale and Connor-Davidson Resilience scale for the investigation. The results indicated that:(1) Resilience of adolescents can be predicted by parenting styles, self-control and regulatory focus of resilience; (2) The positive parenting style can influence adolescent's resilience directly (β=0.18,p <0.001), and also indirectly affects resilience through adolescent self-control (β=0.07,p <0.001) and promotion focus (β=0.21,p <0.001), respectively. Furthermore, the positive parenting can indirectly affects resilience through a chain mediator of self-control and promotion focus (β=0.02,p <0.05), and through a chain mediator of self-control and prevention focus (β=0.02,p <0.01); (3) The negative parenting style can influence adolescent's resilience directly (β=0.14,p <0.01), and negative parenting style can influence adolescent's resilience negatively and indirectly by prevention regulatory focus of adolescent (β=-0.04,p <0.01). These findings suggested that self-control and regulatory focus have a chain mediating effect between the parenting styles and resilience of adolescents.

Key words: parenting style, self-control, regulatory focus, resilience, adolescent
