10. Summary of the results of the thesis: The research results show that children in Bac Kan province have an average level of parentification and psychological recovery. The comparison results between groups on the level of parentification show that there are significant differences according to the area of ​​residence, ethnicity, grade level, number of children's siblings, and the education level of the father and mother. Regarding the psychological recovery of children, the comparison results between groups show that there are differences according to gender, in which boys have a higher level of recovery than girls. In addition, psychological recovery also has differences according to the area, and the number of children's siblings. The research results also show that parentification focusing on parents and parentification in the role of siblings do not predict the impact on children's resilience. The aspect of awareness of the benefits of experiencing parentification is a predictor of the impact on psychological recovery. From the research results obtained, the thesis gives some recommendations to help improve psychological recovery in children when experiencing parentification, to form and develop good personality.

11. Summary of the findings of the thesis: The research shows that children in Bac Kan have moderate levels of parentification and psychological resilience. The results of the comparison between groups regarding the level of parentification showed significant differences based on residential area, ethnicity, grade, number of siblings, and the educational level of both father and mother. Regarding children's psychological resilience, the comparison between groups shows differences based on gender, with boys demonstrating higher resilience than girls. Additionally, psychological resilience is also varied according to residential area and the number of siblings. The research results also indicate that parent-focused parentification and sibling-focused parentification did not predict children's resilience. However, the perceived benefits of parentification were found to be a predictive factor in psychological resilience. Based on the research findings, the thesis proposes several recommendations to enhance children's psychological resilience during experiences of parentification to form and develop good personality.
