There is growing importance of the Parental Bonding Instrument (PBI) in clinical practice and research on parenting and parental bonding. Since the development of this diagnostic tool (Parker et al., Brit. J. Med. Psycho.1979; 52:1-10), a number of validation studies have been done in various cultures. The aim of the present study was to translate the measure into Bangla and validate in Bangladeshi culture. A total of 200 adolescents participated in the study. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) of the data from 191 participants (who provided complete responses) identified a two-factor (Care and Overprotection) structure of the PBI with 17 items. The two factors together explained 44.18% of the total variance. The factors showed moderate to very high internal consistency (Cronbach's α=0.863 for Care; 0.622 for Overprotection), and very strong convergent and discriminant validity as evident by their correlations with the measures of cognitive distortions and antisocial behaviors. In line with the original tool we defined four types of parenting style, such as Affectionate constraint, Affectionless control, Optimal parenting, and Neglectful parenting. This study opens the door of future research on parenting practices and parent-child relationships in Bangladesh.
父母关系量表（PBI）在临床实践以及育儿与亲子关系研究中的重要性日益凸显。自该诊断工具问世以来（帕克等人，《英国医学心理学杂志》，1979年；52卷：1 - 10页），已在多种文化中开展了多项效度验证研究。本研究旨在将该量表翻译成孟加拉语，并在孟加拉文化中进行效度验证。共有200名青少年参与了本研究。对191名参与者（提供完整回答者）的数据进行探索性因素分析（EFA），确定了一个包含17个条目的PBI两因素结构（关爱和过度保护）。这两个因素共同解释了总方差的44.18%。这些因素显示出中等至非常高的内部一致性（关爱维度的克朗巴哈α系数 = 0.863；过度保护维度的克朗巴哈α系数 = 0.622），并且通过与认知扭曲和反社会行为测量指标的相关性，显示出非常强的聚合效度和区分效度。与原始工具一致，我们定义了四种育儿方式，即深情约束型、冷漠控制型、最佳育儿型和忽视型育儿。本研究为孟加拉国未来关于育儿实践和亲子关系的研究打开了大门。
