The research method was quasi-experimental, employing a pretest–posttest design with two experimental groups and one control group. The statistical population consisted of all mothers with adolescent children, from whom, based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, 30 mothers with adolescents—along with their 30 adolescent daughters—were selected through purposive sampling. They were then randomly assigned to two experimental groups and one control group (each group consisting of 15 mothers and their adolescents). Only the mothers received direct parenting training, while all participants, including the mothers and their adolescents, were assessed at three stages of the study using the research instruments. The research instruments included the Parenting Stress Index developed by Abidin (1990) for the mothers and the Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale developed in 2003 for the adolescents. While members of the control group were placed on a waiting list, mothers in the experimental groups received wise parenting training over eight 90-minute sessions. The data were analyzed at two levels: descriptive (mean and standard deviation) and inferential (repeated measures analysis of variance). The results indicated that both methods had equally significant effects on the variables related to parents and adolescents in this study. Therefore, based on these findings, it can be concluded that the wise parenting training package can be effective in improving parenting stress and adolescents’ resilience.</p> https://journals.kmanpub.com/index.php/psychnexus/article/download/4775/8628
