Objective: The present study aimed to determine the relationship between mothersʾ temperament traits and childrenʾs attention deficit hyperactivity symptoms: with the mediating role of parental styles. Method: This study was a descriptive-correlation. The statistical society of this study included all mothers of ADHD students in primary school in the 2nd and 4th districts in Tehran in the academic year of 2017-2018. They were selected by purposive sampling method. For data collection, we used Cloningerʾs temperament and character questionnaire, Baumrindʾs parenting styles questionnaire, and Connerssʾs parent questionnaire. Results: The findings showed that parenting styles can mediate the relation between mothersʾ temperament traits and childrenʾs attention deficit hyperactivity symptoms. Novelty seeking had indirect effect on ADHD symptoms, and authoritative style had mediator role in this relationship (P≤0/01, β=0/32). Harm avoidance had indirect effect on ADHD symptoms, and authoritative style had mediator role in this relationship (P≤0/01, β=0/34). Persistence had indirect effect on ADHD symptoms and authoritative style had mediator role in this relationship (P≤0/01, β=0/37). Conclusion: Mothers with harmful temperament traits, in parents-child interaction demonstrate non-authoritative style that causes ADHD symptoms in their children.
