Adolescence is a critical developmental stage characterized by significant changes in selfperception and social relationships. This study investigates the relationship between fatherchild attachment and self-confidence in adolescents. Utilizing a quantitative approach, data
were collected from 90 adolescents through standardized scales measuring self-confidence
and father-child attachment. Descriptive statistics revealed that the empirical mean score for
self-confidence was 89.5 (SD = 12.2), while the mean score for father-child attachment was
80.2 (SD = 12.1). Correlation analysis demonstrated a significant positive relationship
between father-child attachment and self-confidence (r = 0.403, p < 0.001), indicating that
stronger attachments contribute to higher self-confidence. The coefficient of determination
(R² = 0.162) suggests that father-child attachment accounts for 16.2% of the variance in selfconfidence. These findings underscore the importance of fostering secure father-child
relationships to enhance adolescent self-confidence
