Objective: To explore the relationship between parenting style and life of meaning, and also the mediating effects of self-esteem. Methods: A convenient sample of 316 students from 2 higher vocational schools was selected and assessed with the Purpose in Life (PIL), Egma Minnen av Bardndosnauppforstran (EMBU), and Self-Esteem Scale (SES). Results:The male students scored higher than the females in the dimension of father's penalty and strictness, father's over involvement, father's rejection and denying, father's over protection, mother's over involvement, mother's rejection and denying , mother's penalty and strictness (ft <0.01), but lower in the dimension of mother's warmth and understanding (P <0.01). The students from city scored higher in the dimension of mother's over involvement than those from country (P <0.05), but lower in the dimension of life goals (P < 0. 05). Father's warmth and understanding had positive relation to life enthusiasm (β = 0.21, P <0. 05) and avoidance (β = 0.29, P < 0.01), and mother's warmth and understanding had positive relation to life goals and future anticipates (β =0.25,0.14; P <0.05) . Self-esteem played a mediated role between father's warmth and life enthusi-asm (β =0.15, P >0. 05), father's warmness and avoidance (β =0.26, P >0.01), mother's warmth and life goals (β=0.17, P >0.05), and mother's warmth and future anticipates (β =0.09, P>0.05). Conclusion: Parenting style has significant predictive effect on some dimensions of life of meaning, and self-esteem may be a mediator.%目的:考察高职生父母教养方式与高职生生命意义感的关系,以及自尊在其中所起的作用.方法:采用方便取样,从广州市两所高等职业技术学院的高职生中抽取一、二年级学生316名,用生命意义量表(PIL)、自尊量表(SES)和父母教养方式评价量表(EMBU)进行测查.结果:男生的父亲惩罚严厉、父亲过分干涉、父亲拒绝否认、父亲过度保护、母亲过分干涉、母亲拒绝否认、母亲惩罚严厉得分均高于女生,而母亲情感温暖得分低于女生(均P＜0.01)；城镇学生的母亲过分干涉得分高于农村学生,而生活目标得分低于农村学生(均P＜0.05).父亲情感温暖能积极预测生命热忱、逃避(β=0.21、0.29,P＜0.05),母亲情感温暖积极预测生活目标、未来期待(β=0.25,0.14;P ＜0.05).自尊在父亲情感温暖与生命热忱(β=0.15,P＞0.05)、父亲情感温暖与逃避(β=0.26,P＞0.01)、母亲情感温暖与生活目标(β=0.17,P＞0.05)、母亲情感温暖与未来期待(β=0.09,P＞0.05)的作用过程中起着中介作用.结论:高职生父母教养方式与生命意义密切相关,自尊在二者关系中有着中介作用.
