Abstract
This study aims to empirically examine the relationship between father’s involvement in parenting and the psychological well-being of emerging adults. This study involved 263 respondents who were in the emerging adulthood phase. The data were collected using a purposive sampling technique through a Google Form questionnaire. The measuring instrument for psychological well-being was the Indonesian version of the Psychological Well-Being Scale, which consists of 29 items based on Ryff’s theory. Father involvement was measured using the Perceived Father Involvement (PFII) scale, consisting of 36 items based on the theory of Saliha and Jayan. Data were analyzed using the JAMOVI application with Spearman’s rho correlation technique. The results of the analysis indicate a positive and significant relationship between father involvement and psychological well-being in emerging adults. Furthermore, father involvement in parenting explains 18% of the variance in psychological well-being.
