Abstract

There has been extensive research on cultural differences in ATTACHMENT phenomena in recent years. The present study aims to explore the perception of Iranian mothers of DESIRABLE AND UNDESIRABLE CHARACTERISTICS in their childhood and adulthood, as one of the related components of ATTACHMENT.This research replicates that of Rothbaum et al. (2007) and intends to compare and contrast the results in the Iranian context with those displayed in the Japanese and American CULTUREs. This research is a qualitative study.30 Iranian mothers of 3-5 year-old children attending nursery schools in Tehran participated in this study.Mothers were asked individually through a semi-structured interview about characteristics which they like and dislike for their children to have in their childhood and adulthood. Results were analyzed by a qualitative method and show that positive mood and naughtiness in childhood, and socially desirable behaviors, good academic achievement and independency in adulthood were the most frequently mentioned desirable characteristics. Maladjustment, negative mood (bad temper) and isolation in childhood, and aggression, negative mood and socially undesirable behaviors in adulthood were the most frequently mentioned undesirable characteristics.The Iranian results were also com-pared with the results of the Rothbaum et al. (2007) report, and revealed cultural similarities as well as differences in this field. Faith, modesty and patience as desirable characteristics, and disability in expressing demands, low academic achievement and pertinacity as the undesirable characteristics were found as new categories in this study, which were not reported by American and Japanese mothers. These results are discussed in the context of the Iranian CULTURE.
