Scholte, Ron H. J.; van Lieshout, Cornelis F. M.; van Aken, Marcel A. G.
Journal of Research on Adolescence, v11 n1 p71-94 2001
Examined characteristics of perceived relational support from four key providers for 12- to 18-year-olds. Variable-centered factor analyses yielded five support dimensions, three specific to providers and two specific to provisions. Person-centered factor analyses identified five types of adolescents with different configurations of perceived support. These configurations were significantly related to patterns of adjustment in various domains. (Author/KB)
