Intellectual giftedness is commonly associated with a high level of intellectual functioning, an identification process whereby individuals are labeled as "gifted," and adjustments in schools such as grade skipping. During adolescence, all these factors are prone to reduce peer connectedness and school life satisfaction. The aim of the…

Kunyu, David K.; Schachner, Maja K.; Juang, Linda P.; Schwarzenthal, Miriam; Aral, Tugçe – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2021
Despite evidence that acculturation hassles (such as discrimination and language hassles) relate to poorer adjustment for adolescents of immigrant descent, we know less about the psychological processes underlying these associations. In this study, we test whether reduced psychological needs satisfaction in terms of a lower sense of belonging,…

Peer relationships form a key developmental context.
