dc.description.abstractThe communication of the parent with the child is also very important for both the parent and the child. The first people to communicate with their children and try to show them life are their parents, that is, their parents. If the family environment or atmosphere is the basis of relationships and communication, it will positively affect the psychological and emotional development of children and the development of good behavior. Locus of control, on the other hand, is the tendency of a person to perceive events that affect him, whether good or bad, as the result of his characteristics and behaviors, or as the work of forces other than himself, such as luck, fate, luck, and powerful others. General self-efficacy, which is the mediator role, is defined as the characteristics of the parent's communication with the child, the parent-specific emotion regulation strategies, and the belief that an individual can successfully perform the behaviors necessary to produce the desired results under certain conditions. Thus, this locus of control was built on the concepts of general self-efficacy, and parent-child communication and aimed to examine the relationship between these concepts in a model. It is predicted that general self-efficacy will play a mediating role in the relationship between locus of control and parent-child communication. In addition, significant differences of these concepts with various demographic variables were evaluated. The sample of the study consists of a total of 412 parents. The data were collected through online platforms and surveys; the Locus of Control Scale, General Self-Efficacy, and Parent-to-Child Communication Scale were used. As a result of the regression analyzes made in the SPSS program it was found that locus of control had a significant predictive effect on the parent's communication with their child, and general self-efficacy had a significant mediating role in the relationship between locus of control and parent's communication with their child. Recommendations are presented within the framework of the literature related to the findings obtained.en_US
