The objective of present study was to investigate the effectiveness of “Positive Parenting Program training” on interaction of parent-child mothers of school-age children of Ahvaz. This study was an experimental research with pre-test, post-test and control group. Statistical population included all mothers of primary schools in Ahvaz. From among these mothers, 30 mothers were selected by purposing sampling. Then, they were randomly put in two groups of 15 persons each (an experimental group and a control group). The experimental group was exposed to an eight sessions training of positive parenting program but the people in control group received no program. The Parent Child Relationship Scale (PCRS) of Pianta (1994) was the research measurement tool. The obtained information by multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA), was analyzed by using the 20th version of statistical software of SPSS. The results of multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) indicated that at least in one of the components of parent-child interaction, there is a significant difference between the experimental and control group (P<0/001). The results also showed that the training of positive parenting program had positive and significant effect on conflict, dependence and total positive relationship (P<0/001). The results indicated that the training of positive parenting program will improve the parent-child interaction.
