In this study, the relationship between the psychological control perceived by the adolescents from their parents and their subjective well-being was investigated. The study group consisted of 565 adolescents in the 10-14 age group attending secondary school. “Adolescent Subjective Well-Being Scale” and “Psychological Control Scale” were used for data collection. Nonparametric tests were applied in data analysis. This research shows that adolescents who areat the age of 14 and above have low positive feelings and higher perception of parental psychological control. It has been remarked that adolescents with notable academic success have higher subjective well-being while adolescents with average or low academic performance have higher perceptions of parental psychological control. A meaningful negative relationship was detected between parental psychological control scores and adolescent well-being scores; Meaning that higher parental psychological control causes lower adolescent subjective well being.
