Abstract (2. Language): 
Emotional well-being, which is usually ignored, is the key factor for the success and happiness. It is especially important for adolescent students who pass through the most critical period in life. Main objective of this experimental study was to define the effects of three workshops with parents on communication with children on the positive changes of adolescent students’ emotional well-being. This research was realized in a secondary school located in a district of Ankara. Two groups of the 8th grade students (each group 50 students, mean age 14±1years), who were selected as sample, filled in an inventory for adolescents’ relations with parents, and in a scale for emotional well-being before and after the workshops with parents. Results showed that irrespectiveness, impatience, disapproval, pressure, rough and insufficient way of speaking of parents were the highest difficulties of the adolescent students for their emotional well-being. After workshops, adolescents stated that the offensive words, attitudes and behaviours used in the communication by their parents were replaced with positive alternatives. Also, emotional well-being scores have significantly increased. This study, which is the first kind of its kind in Turkey, yielded in important scientific and practical results. The intervention method was found to be effective. The relationships between adolescents and parents changed and affected adolescents’ emotional well-being positively.
Abstract (Original Language):

Araştırma Ankara’da bir orta dereceli okulda gerçekleştirilmiştir. Örneklem olarak seçilen sekizinci sınıf öğrencilerinden iki grup öğrenci (her biri 50 öğrenci, yaş ortalaması 14±1 yıl) ergenlerin aile ile ilişkileri envanterini ve duygusal iyilik ölçeğini öntest ve anne-babalarla iletişim çalışmalarından sonra sontest olarak doldurmuşlardır. Sonuçlar anne-babaların ilgisizliği, sabırsızlığı, onaylamamaları, baskıcı davranışları, kaba ve yetersiz konuşma şekilleri ergen öğrencilerin duygusal iyiliği açısından üst düzeyde zorluklar olduğunu göstermektedir. İletişim çalışmalarından sonra ergenler, anne –babalarının kullandığı incitici sözlerin, tutumların ve davranışların yerini olumlu seçeneklerinin aldığını belirtmişlerdir. Ayrıca, duygusal iyilik skorları da anlamlı olarak yükselmiştir. Türkiye’de türünde ilk olan bu çalışma önemli bilimsel ve patrik sonuçlar ortaya koymuştur. Müdahale yöntemi etkili bulunmuştur.
