The aim of the present study was to investigate the correlation between lifestyle and parenting style with resiliency and mental health of veterans' spouses.
Instruments & Methods: This descriptive-correlational study was carried out on 170 people of veterans' spouses in Ardakan city in 2018. The subjects were selected by convenience sampling method. Data were collected by the Miller-Smith lifestyle assessment inventory, Baumrind's parenting style inventory, Connor-Davidson resilience scale, and Goldberg and Hillier health questionnaire. Data were analyzed through SPSS 21 software using Pearson correlation coefficient method.
Findings: There was a significant correlation (p=0.001) between the lifestyle with resiliency (r=0.559) and mental health (r=-0.277). Also authoritarian parenting style had a negative significant correlation (r=-0.125; p=0.042) with resilience, and positive significant correlation (r=0.094; p=0.048) with mental health. The correlation between powerful parenting style and mental health was negative and significant (r=-0.133; p=0.024).
