Introduction: Public health is a multi-component construct, one of the constituent components of which is the mental and psychological aspect, and plays a significant role in maintaining the integrity of health. Today it is more relevant to study these psychological aspects, such as self-esteem, psychological well-being, level of adaptation, resilience, and the study of their impact on the healthy functioning of an individual. It is also important to study the formation of these psychological factors and the variables affecting them. The present work was aimed at studying the role of self-esteem and its influence on the level of adaptation, along with other psychological components, and researching the influence of parenting style on the formation of self-esteem. Methodology: As part of the qualitative research, 6 female and 3 male persons were interviewed. Results: An adequate (upper limit of the average estimate) self-esteem has a positive effect on the level of adaptation because the subjects with this type of assessment have maintained a realistic attitude and healthy criticism towards themselves. The authoritative parenting style contributes to the formation of adequate self-esteem, while the authoritarian parenting style has a negative impact on the formation of self-esteem. Conclusion: It is necessary to raise the level of awareness of the population regarding parenting style, and the management of this problem and the development of targeted programs should be the responsibility of schools and relevant State structures.
