Relationship between Perceived Father Involvement and Early Adolescent's Subjective Well-Being

摘要

The aim of this research is to investigate the relationship between perceived father involvement and early adolescent's subjective well-being. Participant in this research were 162 early adolescents 12-15 years old. Nurturant fathering Scale (NFS) dan Father Involvement Scale-Reported (FIS-R) by Finley and Schwartz (2004) is used to measure father involvement. For measuring subjective well-being, we used Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS) from Diener (1985) and Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) by Watson, Clark, and Tellegan (1988). We used the Pearson correlation to measure correlation between variables. The result indicated that domain father nurturance and domain reported father involvement is positively significant related to positive affect, and also found that domain father nurturance is negatively significant related with negative affect.
