Journal of Youth and Adolescence, v29 n3 p319-35 Jun 2000
Studied the relationship between parental and friends' social support in 2,918 adolescents aged 12 to 24 years, focusing on emotional problems. Results indicate that parents' and friends' support seem to be relatively independent support systems. Parental support remains the best indicator of emotional problems during adolescence. (SLD)
