Jewish Women's Psychological Well-Being: The Role of Attachment, Separation, and Jewish Identity
Goldberg, Julie L.; O'Brien, Karen M.
Psychology of Women Quarterly, v29 n2 p197-206 Jun 2005
The purpose of this study was to examine the contributions of attachment, separation, and Jewish identity to psychological well-being in a sample of 115 late adolescent Jewish women. Results from multiple regression analyses demonstrated that attachment to parents, separation from parents, and Jewish identity collectively accounted for variance in psychological distress, as measured by anxiety, depression, self-esteem problems, and interpersonal problems. Thus, late adolescent Jewish women's psychological functioning may be fostered by therapeutic interventions addressing their relationships with parents and Jewish identity.
