Family Transitions during the Adolescent Transition: Implications for Parenting.

Freeman, Harry S.; Newland, Lisa A.

Adolescence, v37 n147 p457-75 Fall 2002

Explores how family transitions affect parenting practices in a sample of adolescents. Adolescents from all family types reported significant declines in behavioral control, but not parental responsiveness. Findings suggest that adolescent individuation may overshadow family-type differences during middle adolescence. (Contains 50 references and 3 tables.) (GCP)
