This study aims to investigate whether there is a relationship between the perception of family authority and the level of family sense of belonging among young people. Data were collected from 217 students who continue their education in the department of child development at the associate and undergraduate levels at Kırıkkale University. “Family Sense of Belonging Scale" was used to measure the sense of belonging, and "Parental Attitude Scale" was used to measure the perception of family authority. According to the results obtained from the research, a significant difference was found between the oppressive-extremely controlling parental attitudes and the democratic and liberating parental attitudes in the sub-dimension of self-belonging. In addition, a significant difference was found between the oppressive-extremely controlling parental attitude and the democratic and liberating groups in general family sense of belonging. Over-controlling parental attitudes decrease self-relatedness and general family belonging relatively compared to other dimensions. It was determined that the protective-demanding parental attitude was the most common perception among the participants, followed by the democratic parental attitudes. It was concluded that the general family belonging of the participants was high, and especially the self-affirmation was higher than the sub-dimension of family sense of belonging. It was concluded that the perception of family sense of belonging was highest in family structures where the best understood member of the family was the mother, and the perception of family belonging was the lowest in the participants who got along best with their grandparents.
