Four identity dimensions (Commitment Making, Identification with Commitment, Exploration in Depth, and Exploration in Breadth)
were used to derive identity statuses by means of cluster analysis in a sample of late adolescents. This strategy resulted
in both a qualitative refinement and a quantitative extension of Marcia's (1966) model. Five clusters were retained. Four
of those (the Achievement, Moratorium, Foreclosure, and Diffused Diffusion Cluster) bore a striking resemblance to Marcia's
original identity statuses in terms of their definition and their associations with criterion variables. Adolescents in the
fifth cluster, the Carefree Diffusion Cluster (low to moderate on both commitment dimensions and low on both exploration dimensions),
scored as high as the 2 high Commitment Making clusters (i.e., the Achievement and Foreclosure Cluster) on several indicators
of adjustment. Personality characteristics further differentiated these clusters in accordance with theory. The advantages
of expanding the identity status paradigm, through additional distinctions that pertain to both commitment and exploration,
are discussed and practical implications are outlined.

The aim of the present study was to examine a model positing that association with deviant peers mediates the relation between
adolescent perceived parenting behaviors (maternal monitoring and involvement), the interaction of these parenting behaviors,
and delinquency in a sample of 135 urban African American adolescents (13–19 years of age). Regression analyses revealed a
monitoring by involvement interaction among African American females, suggesting that maternal monitoring may effectively
reduce delinquency among African American female adolescents, and that this reduction may be enhanced by increased maternal
involvement. Among African American males, only the relation between association with deviant peers and delinquency was supported,
suggesting that maternal parenting behaviors may, in isolation, be insufficient in the prevention of delinquent behaviors
in African American male adolescents. The results suggest that the pathways from parenting to association with deviant peers
and delinquency may differ in males and females, and the salience of certain parenting behaviors may differ across gender.

The direct and mediated effects of socioenvironmental risk on internalizing and externalizing problems among Latino youth
aged 10–14 were examined using prospective analyses. Participants in this study were 464 Latino mother and child dyads surveyed
as part of the Welfare, Children & Families: A Three City Study. It was hypothesized that socioenvironmental risk (i.e., maternal psychological distress, maternal parenting stress, neighborhood
disadvantage, and perceived financial strain) would influence later adolescent adjustment by interrupting important family
processes and interfering with opportunities for adolescents to develop appropriate social competence. Using path analyses,
the mediational model was compared across high and low acculturation groups. With two exceptions, the models for the high
and low acculturation groups were equivalent. Results supported a mediated effect between early socioenvironmental risk and
later adjustment problems for the low acculturation group through family routines and adolescent social competence. Among
families high in acculturation, socioenvironmental risk effects were partially mediated through family routines and adolescent
social competence. Finally, a path from gender to maternal monitoring was present in the low acculturation group model but
not the high acculturation group model.

The transition to high school has been identified as a potentially difficult time in adolescents’ lives. Reductions in both
academic and social functioning often accompany this transition. While these effects have been documented in urban youth,
the move to high school has not been extensively studied in rural minority youth. Toward that end, the academic grades and
substance use in ninth grade of 447 (184 male and 263 female) African-American adolescents from two rural counties in a state
in the deep South were examined in relation to configurations of adaptation from sixth through eighth grade. Results indicate
that individual with consistently positive patterns across middle school had higher grades and lower rates of substance use
compared to individuals with persistent difficulties or those that transitioned to problem behavior. Many individuals who
improved in their patterns of adaptation had relatively high grades, but also rather high rates of substance use in the ninth
grade.

Children born to adolescent mothers have heightened vulnerability for exposure to multiple stressful life events owing to factors associated with teenaged parenthood such as poverty and low levels of maternal education. This study investigated whether early exposure to negative life events such as parental divorce, residential instability, and deaths in the family predicted children’s socioemotional and behavioral functioning at age 10. Hierarchical regression analyses suggested that negative life events—which were reported by 94% of the sample—were associated with less favorable developmental outcomes, with social support serving as a buffer between exposure to these events and children’s anxiety, internalization, externalization, and maladaptive behaviors.This research was supported by NIH grant # HD-26456.

Data from the Fragile Families and Child-Well-being Study were used to examine predictors of involvement among fathers of
young children (N=2,215) born to adolescent and young adult mothers (ages 14–25; N=2,850). Participants were interviewed immediately following their baby's birth and at 3-years postpartum regarding co-parental
relationship quality, fathers’ caretaking behavior (“father involvement”), and fathers’ provision of material support for
the child (“in-kind” support). Early postnatal and 3-year postpartum parental relationship quality and father-child cohabitation
predicted 3-year father involvement while early father involvement did not. The race of fathers, specifically African American,
was associated with lower levels of father involvement. For in-kind support, 3-year father-child cohabitation and 3-year relationship
quality were both positively associated with provision of in-kind support. Father's income was not a significant predictor
but mother's involvement with a new partner at the 3-year follow-up was marginally significant. Lastly, the race of fathers,
specifically African American and Latino, was associated with provision of less in-kind support.

The current study compared levels of family processes, internalizing behaviors, and externalizing behaviors as well as developmental processes, namely the associations among family processes and measures of internalizing or externalizing behaviors, in native Swiss, 2nd and 1st generation immigrant adolescents (N=3,540). Findings provided evidence that both 2nd and 1st generation immigrant youth experienced higher rates of internalizing symptoms (depression and anxiety) than native Swiss youth. Comparisons of how individual family processes were associated with internalizing and externalizing behaviors provided evidence of few differences across groups. Thus, developmental processes were largely invariant by immigrant status. Although the immigration process may increase the risk for internalizing and some externalizing behaviors, it does not seem to affect how key family processes are associated with measures of adolescent adjustment.Professor of Human Development and Family Studies at Auburn University.

Hierarchical regression analyses were used to identify factors that functioned as either promotive or protective factors against
the impact of ecological risk on the psychological adjustment of 112 African American and 94 European American adolescents
(13–19 years of age). Indicators of ecological risk, promotive/protective factors, and adjustment were assessed concurrently
via adolescent self-report questionnaires. Supportive parenting emerged as a promotive factor for both African American and
European American adolescents for academic achievement, competence, and problem behaviors. Additionally, school connectedness
served as a promotive factor for both African American and European American adolescents with competence as the criterion.
However, in analyses with problem behaviors as the criterion, school connectedness intensified the effect of ecological risk
for European American adolescents. Of the three hypothesized positive factors (supportive parenting, ethnic identity, and
school connectedness), only ethnic identity emerged as a protective factor for problem behaviors and this effect was only
observed for European American adolescents.

Identity Formation in Early and Middle Adolescents From Various Ethnic Groups: From Three Dimensions to Five Statuses 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We used three identity processes (i.e., commitment, in-depth exploration, and reconsideration of commitment) from a recently
developed model of identity formation to derive empirically identity statuses in a sample of 1952 early and middle adolescents.
By means of cluster analysis, we identified five statuses: achievement, foreclosure, moratorium, searching moratorium, and
diffusion. Specifically, we found an intra-status differentiation within moratorium, unraveling the positive and negative
facets of this status documented in prior literature. The five clusters could be meaningfully distinguished on a number of
variables, such as personality features, psychosocial problems, and parental relationships. These findings indicated that
a valid distinction in identity statuses could be made in early and middle adolescence. Finally, age and ethnic background
strongly affected the distribution of the participants among the five identity statuses. Implications and suggestions for
future research are discussed.

Rethinking Timing of First Sex and Delinquency 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Harden KP Mendle J Hill JE Turkheimer E Emery RE 《Journal of youth and adolescence》2008,37(4):373-385
The relation between timing of first sex and later delinquency was examined using a genetically informed sample of 534 same-sex
twin pairs from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health, who were assessed at three time points over a 7-year
interval. Genetic and environmental differences between families were found to account for the association between earlier
age at first sex and increases in delinquency. After controlling for these genetic and environmental confounds using a quasi-experimental
design, earlier age at first sex predicted lower levels of delinquency in early adulthood. The current study is contrasted
with previous research with non-genetically informative samples, including Armour and Haynie (2007, Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 36, 141–152). Results suggest a more nuanced perspective on the meaning and consequences of adolescent sexuality than is commonly
put forth in the literature.

Correlations between adolescent and parent reports of adolescent problems are low in magnitude. In community samples adolescents
tend to report more problems than parents and in clinical samples adolescents tend to report fewer problems than parents. Indices of agreement may be biased if some adolescents in a given sample report more problems and
others report fewer problems than parents. In the current study, order and mean agreement between adolescent and maternal
reports of adolescent internalizing and externalizing problems, taking into account the direction of disagreement, was examined
in a community sample of 133 young adolescents and their mothers. Two-thirds to three-quarters of adolescents reported more
problems than mothers. Accounting for the direction of discrepancies resulted in improved agreement between adolescents and
mothers and differing patterns of predictors of discrepancies. Additionally, the results demonstrate the need to control for
relations between adolescent-reported problems and discrepancies when exploring predictors of discrepancies.

In order to investigate the relationship between aspects of child rearing and adolescent self-concept, 130 males and females in grades 7, 8, and 9 completed Schaefer's Children's Report of Parental BehaviorInventory (CRPBI) and Coopersmith's Self-Esteem Inventory. Correlations between the Acceptance/Rejection dimension of the CRPBI and the various self-esteem subscores were positive. Correlations between the self-esteem scores and the Psychological Autonomy/Psychological Control dimension of the CRPBI were negative. The correlations were stronger for perceptions of mothers' as opposed to fathers' child-rearing practices. Analyses of variance indicated that ninth-graders perceived their parents as less accepting than seventhor eighth-graders. High self-esteem adolescents perceived their parents as more accepting, as using less psychological control, and as not being overly firm in making and enforcing rules and regulating the adolescents' behavior. The results support the contention that optimal self-concept development takes place in an atmosphere of acceptance that allows the adolescent autonomy and the opportunity to learn competencies.This study is based in part on a Master's thesis submitted by the first author to the Graduate School, Syracuse University, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the M.S. degree.Department of Psychology, Syracuse University.

The National Household Education Survey, a nationally representative data set (N=4,306 high school students and one parent of each), was analyzed to describe characteristics of adolescents, the nature of
their service activities, and academic, behavioral and civic outcomes associated with service (voluntary compared to school-required
and by type of service). Participation in any service is associated with positive outcomes whether service is voluntary or
required. Adolescents who worked directly with individuals in need had better academic adjustment; those who worked for organizations
had better civic outcomes than adolescents who performed other types of service. Findings are discussed in terms of their
significance for adolescent development, educational policy, and the use of large national data sets to examine service participation.

The present study examined cultural orientation as a protective factor against tobacco and marijuana smoking for African American
young women (ages 18 to 25). African American college students (N=145) from a predominantly White university were administered subscales from the African American Acculturation Scale-Revised
(AAAS-R); the shortened Individualism/Collectivism (INDCOL) Scale; a Tobacco and Drug Use Survey; and a background survey.
Multiple logistic regression was conducted using cultural orientation variables as predictors and smoking status (i.e., tobacco
and marijuana) as the criterion. It was expected that young women who endorsed traditional African American cultural characteristics
(i.e., religious beliefs, health, family values, and socialization) and were collectivistic in their community (i.e., cultural
interdependency) and familial (i.e., familial interdependency) interactions would be less likely to smoke. Results show that
traditional religious beliefs and practice was protective against tobacco smoking for this sample of young women. Familial
interdependency (e.g., supportive exchanges between friends, and consultation and sharing with parents), and traditional religious
beliefs and practices surfaced as protective factors against marijuana smoking. Traditional health beliefs and practices was
a risk factor for both tobacco and marijuana smoking. The implications signal the need for smoking prevention and cessation
programs to focus on interpersonal factors which may strengthen African American young women’s religious and familial bonding.

Contributions of 3 dimensions of parenting (psychological control, warmth, and behavioural control), marital conflict, and attachment style (anxiety and avoidance) to adjustment from early to middle adolescence were assessed. Mediation of marital conflict effects by parenting, and of parenting effects by attachment were examined. Adolescents (n = 175) initially age 13 years reported parenting practices, attachment styles, school grades, self-esteem, and internalizing and externalizing problems twice (T1, T2) 2 years apart. T1 marital conflict was associated with lower self-esteem, more externalizing symptoms, and lower academic achievement at T2, all but the latter mediated by parental warmth. T1 parental psychological control was associated with increases in internalizing symptoms over time, an effect not mediated by attachment insecurity, which contributed independently. T1 parental warmth was associated with decreases in externalizing symptoms and increases in self-esteem over time, the latter mediated by attachment security.Professor of Psychology, Concordia University, Montreal, QC, Canada, H4B 1R6.

Although numerous cross-national studies have assessed life satisfaction among adults, similar studies using adolescent samples
have been rare. To address this shortage of research, a total of 1338 youth adolescents from two individualistic nations (Ireland,
USA) and two collectivistic nations (China, South Korea) were administered the Multidimensional Students’ Life Satisfaction Scale (MSLSS: Huebner, 1994) to assesses general life satisfaction and satisfaction with family, friends, school, self, and living environment. Responses
were analyzed to assess potential cross-national differences in (a) mean levels of life satisfaction, and (b) response styles,
specifically acquiescence and extreme responding. Mean scores revealed positive ratings by adolescents from all four nations
across all domains, with the exceptions of satisfaction with school experiences (Ireland, South Korean, USA), living environment
(China, South Korea), self (South Korea), and general life satisfaction (South Korea). Results also revealed significant response
style differences across all MSLSS domains. Significant gender and gender-by-nation effects were observed for both mean score
and response style differences, although the effect sizes were small. The implications of these findings were discussed, particularly
with respect to “individualistic” vs. “collectivistic” cultural differences.

A large volume of research has investigated interrelations among adolescent risk behaviors. Although several theoretical accounts
have been proposed, researchers have not directly examined hypotheses for why risk behaviors are linked. In the present paper, a distinction is drawn between predictive factors that explain variance
in risk behaviors and “linkage factors” which may provide an explanation for why risk behaviors are interrelated. The relevance
of linkage factors to risk behavior research, theory, and practice is described. Further, a simple to use and easy to interpret
analytic technique for exploring linkage-related issues is illustrated. Using this technique, hypotheses regarding the role
of predictors in explaining linkages among risk behaviors can be tested directly. The proposed line of inquiry will provide
valuable input for intervention efforts and theoretically relevant information concerning linkages among adolescent risk behaviors.

This study used hierarchical linear modeling to compare longitudinal patterns of adolescent religious service attendance and
club attendance, and to contrast the longitudinal relations between adolescent adjustment and religious service versus club
attendance. Participants included 1050 students (47% girls) encompassing a school district in Canada, who completed the survey
first in grade nine and again in grades 11 and 12. Results demonstrated that patterns of religious service attendance over
time were quite different from other clubs. Religious attendance was uniquely associated with several indicators of positive
as well as negative adjustment. Club involvement, conversely, was only associated with positive adjustment––particularly for
individuals who reported sustained involvement over time. Findings suggest that religious services may provide some unique
experiences––both positive and negative––over and above what may be provided in other clubs, and that sustained, rather than
sporadic participation in clubs, may be especially important for adolescent adjustment.
