Adolescent Future Orientation
Future orientation, or the image individuals have of the future, provides the grounds for setting goals and planning, and therefore is considered an important adolescent developmental task. This chapter introduces future orientation research by describing its evolvement from a thematic approach focusing on the content of future domains to a model consisting of three components, discusses its universal and cross-cultural meanings, and reports a re…
Introduction
Future Orientation in Cultural Transition
Using adolescents' narratives and survey data presented in earlier studies, we draw upon Berry's model of four acculturation strategies () to examine adolescents' narratives regarding the future orientation domains of education-and-career and marriage-and-family (Seginer, ) by three groups of nonimmigrant minority adolescents in Israel: Muslim, Druze, and ultra-Orthodox Jewish. The narratives of adolescents from the three communities studied here…
Future Time Perspective and Motivation
Classroom climate, parental educational involvement, and student school functioning in early adolescence
How mothers affect adolescents' future orientation
To expand our knowledge of the effect of parents on adolescents' future orientation we developed a seven‐step model which describes the indirect effect (via adolescents' self‐esteem) of the future orientation that mothers construct for their adolescent children on adolescents' future orientation. Mother‐constructed and adolescent‐constructed future orientation each consists of three components: motivational, cognitive representation, and behavior…
Future Orientation
Future orientation in times of threat and challenge
Drawing on the importance of future orientation for adolescent development this analysis presents a model describing how future orientation is affected by high challenge (or resilience) in the face of political violence. The analysis consists of three parts. The first two present future orientation conceptualization and the psychological processes underlying threat and challenge/resilience, respectively. Consequently, the third part outlines an i…
Adolescent family and peer relationships
Peer relations are perceived to be more strongly related to family relationships for Israeli Arab and Druze adolescents than for Israeli Jewish adolescents growing up in a neighboring but socioculturally different society. However, when family relations are poor, Jewish adolescents draw greater support from peers than do Arab and Druze adolescents
Parents' Educational Involvement
The objective of this review is to examine research on home-based and school-based parental involvement and generate new research questions by employing Bronfenbrenner's ecological framework consisting of the micro-, meso-, exo-, and macrosystems. This analysis shows that, although both family-based and school-based parental involvement are positively related to educational outcomes, their examination in the ecological framework prompts considera…
How The Future Orientation of Traditional Israeli Palestinian Girls Links Beliefs about Women's Roles and Academic Achievement
A model in which future orientation links perceived fathers' and girls' beliefs about traditional women's roles and academic achievement was tested on data collected from traditional Israeli Palestinian girls ( N = 295) attending a Moslem all-girl senior high school. LISREL analyses estimated two empirical models pertaining to educational and family future orientation. The estimated models showed that fathers' perceived beliefs were directly link…
Family Environment, Educational Aspirations, and Academic Achievement in Two Cultural Settings
This study tested a four-step model consisting of family background, perceived parental support and demandingness, educational aspirations, and academic achievement. The model was estimated on data collected from eighth graders ( N = 686) growing up in two cultural settings: transition to modernity (Israeli Arabs) and Western (Israeli Jews). LISREL analyses performed separately for the four ethnicity-by-gender groups showed good fit of the model …

Defensive Pessimism and Optimism Correlates of Adolescent Future Orientation
This study examined the links between academic and social defensive pessimism and optimism strategies and adolescents’future orientation in two prospective domains: education and military service. Analyses of data collected from Israeli 11th graders indicated (a) the prediction concerning domain specificity was corroborated so that academic strategies were significantly linked to prospective education components, and social strategies to prospect…
Adolescents' Perceptions of Relationships With Older Sibling in the Context of Other Close Relationships
This study examines adolescents' perceived relationships with older sibling in the context of adolescent-parent and adolescent-peer relationships. Toward this end, self-report data of 147 11th grade adolescents, who listed an older sibling as their closest sibling were analyzed. These analyses indicated that:(a)adolescents' relationships with older siblings were similar to self-reported relationships with others, fathers, and peers;(b)a rival hyp…
Adolescent passage to adulthood
Sibling Relationships in Early Adolescence
Adolescent sibling relationships is a relatively unexplored area. To establish parameters of adolescent sibling relationships, an exploratory study of the relationships between early adolescent girls and their older sisters was conducted among Israeli Arab adolescents (N = 28). Analysis of open-ended interviews pointed out the special caregiving functions served by older sisters. Examination of these findings in light of American data on early an…

Cross-Cultural Variations of Adolescents' Future Orientation
This study addresses sociocultural variations of adolescents' subjective image of the future, or future orientation. Analysis of the responses-bf Israeli Druze, Arab and Jewish male adolescents (N = 152) to an open-ended, future orientation questionnaire partly supports the hypotheses that Druze adolescents will express fewer concerns regarding the future (salience), describe their concerns with less detail and concreteness (specificity) and that…
Adolescents' Attitudes Toward Women'S Roles
To examine Israeli Jewish and Arab adolescents' attitudes toward women's roles, 319 Jewish and 276 Arab adolescent males and females from private, highly prestigious high schools responded to an attitudes toward women's roles questionnaire. The hypotheses that Jews (modern), females, and older (12th grade) adolescents express more liberal attitudes toward women's roles than do Arabs (transition to modernity), males, and younger (9th grade) adoles…
