Evidence suggests that the quality of family relationships is associated with health locus of control in family members. The present study aimed to determine the correlation between the health locus of control and adolescent-parent attachment. In this descriptive, analytical cross-sectional study, at each of these 10 schools, 40 students aged 14 and 15, will be randomly selected among Behbahan middle schools. 400 students were selected. Rotters Locus of Control Scale and the Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment (IPPA) were used for data collection. Data were analyzed using SPSS software and Pearson correlation coefficient, t-test and ANOVA statistical techniques. Findings showed that the mean and standard deviation of attachment level to father (95.97±19.66), mother (99.62±15.60) friends (93.78±17.59) were all high. Between source of health control (intrinsic, affective, and luck), parental attachment and peers have predictive power (beta=0.263, p≤0.001). According to the findings, to increase attachment to parents, it is better that Intervention should also be carried out on the father and the mother and health Locus control will be increased.
