    (2022) Guclu, Cansu Hazal; Ozdogan, H. Kubra; Cok, Figen
    Life skills have an inclusive effect on various emotional and social aspects of emerging adults' development. Helicopter parenting is quite common among today's parents towards their children at various ages including emerging adult children. The relationship between life skills and psychological variables such as emotional regulation, helicopter parenting and autonomy supportive behaviours is important for emerging adults. The aim of this study is to examine the role of self-regulation, emotional regulation, autonomy supportive behaviours and helicopter parenting on emerging adults' perceived level of life skills. For this purpose, 451 emerging adults (21.7 % male and 78.3 % female) between the ages of 18 and 27 (M = 21.3, SD = 1.92) participated in this study from a comprehensive university from central Turkey. Students' Perception for Life Skills Questionnaire, Helicopter Parenting and Autonomy Supportive Behaviours Scale, Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale and Self-Regulation Questionnaire were administered to volunteer participants. Stepwise regression analyses revealed that perceived life skills predicted by self-regulation (beta = .45, t = 10.872, p = .000) and autonomy supportive behaviours (beta = .14, t = 3.43, p = .001). Results are presented and discussed under the light of life skills and related variables.
