Abstract

The objective of this paper is to study the relationship between Perception of paternal Rejection–Acceptance and Control on Moral Intelligence and Distress Tolerance of the residents of Isfahan City. A Total of 195 men and women of 20-30 years of age were selected through random sampling. The Parental Acceptance-Rejection/Control Questionnaire (Adult PARQ), MCI and Distress Tolerance Scale (DTS) were used. Path Analysis as well as descriptive-correlational research method were employed. The findings of the research indicate that the direct path between perception of parental rejection and acceptance with moral intelligence, perception of paternal rejection and perception of maternal control with distress tolerance as well as moral intelligence with distress tolerance is significant. On the other hand, perception of parental rejection and acceptance through moral intelligence has very low indirect impact on distress tolerance. The findings also show the impact of perception of parental rejection and acceptance on moral intelligence. Distress tolerance also is influenced by perception of maternal rejection and paternal control as well as moral intelligence.
