Co-parenting is the relationship between two adults who are responsible for the care of a child or adolescent. It can be influenced by personality characteristics of each member of the dyad. These constructs can be associated with psychological symptoms in adolescent children. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between personality, co-parenting, and psychological symptoms in adolescents, examining the co-parenting’s mediating role. This was a quantitative, explanatory, and cross-sectional study conducted with one member of the co-parenting dyad, responsible for an adolescent aged 12-16 years. 217 participants responded to the Reduced Markers of the Big Five Personality Factors, The Coparenting Inventory for Parents and Adolescents, the Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire, and the Sociodemographic Questionnaire. Structural Equation Modeling was used for data analysis. Co-parental cooperation acted as a partial mediator between parents’ personality factors and psychological symptoms in children, highlighting the importance of working with parents in a clinical setting.
