Parental Role Perceptions of Ghanian and American Adolescents

McIntire, Walter G.; And Others

Journal of Marriage and the Family, 36, 1, 185-189, Feb 74

The Parsons and Bales instrumental-expressive role differentiation model of family structure was evaluated cross-culturally. Adolescents from the United States and Ghana described their perceptions of components of their parents' role performance. Sex and cultural differences were found which did not support the Parsons and Bales conceptualization. (Author)
