Data were collected using structured questionnaires consisting of widely-used and empirically validated measures of the variables of study. Results indicated that age (r = -.14; p<.05), sex (r = -.15; p <.OS), and bullying (r = -.35; p<.01) were significantly but negativelv related to paternal bonding. Results further indicated that onlv paternal bonding (r = .14; p<.05) was significantly related lo mental well-being. In other words, the greater the adolescent's paternal bonding the better his/her mental well-being, and . vice versa. Interestingly, bullying was not associated with mental well-being (r = -.05; p>.05). Also, maternal bonding was not significantly associated with mental well-being (r = - .02: p>.05). These results were discussed and the need measures a1med at enhancing adolescents' well-being as well as the need for more research in the area was highlighted
