The purpose of this study was to compare self-concept, gender role and emotional maturity in children with and without parental divorce experience. The research method was descriptive, causal-comparative and in terms of post-event time. The statistical population was divided into two groups including all children 12 to 18 years old with and without parental divorce experience in Tehran in the year 1398. Using random sampling method from each group, 100 children volunteered to go to schools. The city of Tehran was selected as the statistical sample. Data collection tools included 3 Beck Self-Concept Questionnaires (1990), the Short Form of Gender Conflict Role Scale (O'Neill et al., 2012), Singh's and Baharagawa's Emotional Maturity Scale (1991). The results of data analysis using independent T-test and analysis of variance (MANOVA) in SPSS-22 software showed that there is a significant difference between children with and without parental divorce on gender role and emotional maturity scales. There was no significant difference in self-concept scale (p <0.05). Therefore, concluded that Parental divorce also affects their success, limited emotional attachment, emotional stability, emotional return, personality breakdown, social incompatibility, and lack of independence for their children.
