A mixed-method case study of Readers’ Theatre with African immigrant and refugee students
Readers' Theatre, a drama-based literacy intervention, has been studied for its academic benefit with the socio-emotional impacts largely neglected. In the current study, the Principal Investigator partnered with a summer Readers' Theatre intervention for public middle school students. Following, students completed a self-concept measure and participated in an interview on the experience. This study presents results of the first-and-second-genera…
Adolescents’ Sexual Encounters With Either Romantic or Casual Partners and the Quality of Their Romantic Relationships Four Years Later
Adolescent sexual behavior was examined within a health perspective. Assuming a developmental perspective, the current study investigated the associations between sexual behavior in either stable relationships or in casual encounters, and the quality of romantic relationships and affect 4 years later. Data were collected from 144 Israeli adolescents aged 16-18 years (mean age 16.57 years). Participants completed diary data over a period of 10 day…
Does Role Balance Influence the Effect of Personality on College Success? A Mediation Model
While the relationship between individual factors, including personality dimensions, and tertiary academic outcomes is well established, the mechanisms by which these factors influence academic success have been less fully explored. This study tested one potential mechanism, the developmental task of role balance, by which personality may influence college success. During emerging adulthood, young people simultaneously explore and establish both …
Romantic Relationship Dissolution in Emerging Adulthood
Relationship dissolution is a common occurrence in emerging adulthood but has received relatively less empirical attention than relationship formation and maintenance. This special issue includes six empirical studies that examine factors that contribute to romantic relationship dissolution during this developmental stage, its consequences, and factors related to postbreakup adjustment. Samples are drawn from the Canada, Israel, and the United St…
Betrayals in Emerging Adulthood
Infidelity is associated with considerable distress and discord in dating relationships. The current mixed methods study examined both the written narratives and survey responses of 104 (59.6% women) emerging adults to investigate reasons for engaging in infidelity (i.e., sexual and emotional infidelity). Emerging adults' reasons for engaging in infidelity were attributed primarily to their primary relationships and/or their romantic partners not…
The Symbolic Nature of Trust in Heterosexual Adolescent Romantic Relationships
Breaking Up in Emerging Adulthood
Using a unique sample of individuals who have and have not attended college, the present mixed-methods study examined narratives of 113 (47% women) emerging adults’ motivations for initiating breakups with romantic partners. Findings indicated that emerging adults’ motivations for ending their romantic relationships were largely due to their relationships and/or their romantic partners not fulfilling their needs for interdependence. Additionally,…
Adolescents' understandings of infidelity
This study explored younger adolescents' (aged 14–17 years; N = 204; 50% girls) understandings of infidelity and whether these understandings differed for girls and boys. Analyses revealed that younger adolescents' understandings of infidelity included an array of physical, affective, cognitive, and verbal behaviors with an extradyadic partner. No gender differences were found. In addition, younger adolescents' understandings of infidelity were c…
I Learned Things That Make Me Happy, Things That Bring Me Down”
Early romantic relationships have been described as the “learning context” and “training ground” for future intimate relationships; however, research has yet to examine the lessons that individuals take away from such relationships. In the present mixed-methods, longitudinal study, 348 adolescents and emerging adults (53% girls/young women) between the ages of 15 and 23 years were asked to reflect on and report the lessons they learned from roman…
Adolescent Romantic Relationships
In this article, we review theoretical and empirical advances in research on romantic relationships between age 10 and the early twenties. First, we describe key themes in this area of research. Next, we briefly characterize the most influential theoretical formulations and distinctive methodological issues. We then describe research findings regarding pertinent social and developmental processes. We summarize the extensive findings on relationsh…
The validity of physical aggression in predicting adolescent academic performance
Background. Aggression has a long history in academic research as both a criterion and a predictor variable and it is well documented that aggression is related to a variety of poor academic outcomes such as: lowered academic performance, absenteeism and lower graduation rates. However, recent research has implicated physical aggression as being predictive of lower academic performance.Aims. The purpose of this study was to examine the role of th…
Keeping quiet
This study examined the relationships between self-silencing and relational and individual functioning among adolescent romantic couples. Adolescent couples ( N = 211) completed questionnaires and participated in a videotaped conflict interaction. High self-silencers reported conceding more to their partner during a conflict, poorer global communication within their romantic relationships, and greater experiences of depressive symptomatology. Par…
Self-Silencing and Rejection Sensitivity in Adolescent Romantic Relationships
No strings attached
The purpose of this article was to identify the circumstances associated with casual sex encounters, as well as to identify the link between casual sex, depressive symptoms, and infidelity among college students. We found that casual sex was a fairly common occurrence related to early sexual transition, engaging in first sex with a casual sex partner, drug use, and alcohol consumption. Casual sex occurred more often between "friends" than with st…
Kissing is good
Interaction and Relationship Quality in Late Adolescent Romantic Couples
This study examined the association between late adolescent romantic couple members' interaction and their overall relationship quality. Stepwise regression analyses were used to predict couple members' global self-reports of relationship quality from their own ratings of their interaction. Positive and negative behaviors, as well as patterns of interaction, were associated with relationship quality, with different patterns of association emergin…
Power and Psychological Well-Being in Late Adolescent Romantic Relationships
Discrepancies in Adolescent Romantic Couples' and Observers' Perceptions of Couple Interaction and their Relationship to Depressive Symptoms
Divergent Realities and Perceived Inequalities
We examined mothers', adolescents', and observers' discrepancies in perceptions of family interaction guided by two approaches to discrepancies: divergent realities approach, which explores discrepancies in different peoples'perceptions of the samefamily member's interaction, and perceived inequality approach, which focuses on one individual's perception of discrepancies between family members' interaction. We used a video-recallprocedure to asse…
Adolescents' Affective Experience of Family Behaviors
Argues that a new definition of affect that focuses on the subjective understanding of interpersonal events, can be used to expand models of how observed family behaviors are related to adolescent psychosocial outcomes. A method for examining adolescents' subjective understanding of family behaviors, the video-recall method, is illustrated in a study of rural adolescents and their families
