To explore the relationship between parental helicopter parenting and subjective well-being of college students and the mediating role of self-control and depression in it, a sample of 948 college students were enrolled in the present study to fill out the Helicopter Parenting Scale, The Self-Control Scale, the Depression Self-Rating Scale, and the Subjective Well-Being Scale. The results showed that: 1) Parental helicopter parenting significantly and negatively predicted college students’ subjective well-being. 2) Depression played an independent mediating role between parental helicopter parenting and college students’ subjective well-being. 3) Self-control and depression had a chain-mediated effect on parental helicopter parenting and college students’ subjective well-being. This study reveals the effect of parental helicopter parenting on college students’ subjective well-being, which provides implications for improvement of college students’ subjective well-being.
