Subjects were 298 pairs of single parent and adolescent from 15 senior high schools and vocational schools in Kaohsiung. The instruments included Chinese Codependency Assessment Tool and Index of Parenting.

The main findings were:
1.There was a significant difference between single-parent father’s and single-parent mother’s other focus/self-neglect codependency.
2.Single-parent mother and single-parent father with various number of adolescent had no significant difference in codependency.
3.Single-parent father with different social status had significant difference in low self-worth and hiding self codependency.
4. Single-parent mother with different social status had significant difference in the other focus/self-neglect codependency.
5. Single parent’s adolescent with different sex had significant difference in the other focus/self-neglect codependency.
6. Single parent’s adolescent with different birth order did not have significant difference in codependency.
7. Single parent’s adolescent studying either at the senior high school or vocational school had significant different codependency on other focus/self-neglect, and low self-worth.

The correlation between single-parent father’s and adolescents'''' medical problems codependency was positive, too.
