The study followed a qualitative design, using the biographical method…
The Identity Development and Adjustment of Spanish Emerging Adult College Students: A Study Across Two Waves
The aim of this study was to explore identity development across two waves, and its relationship with adjustment, among Spanish emerging adults. The sample consisted of 400 emerging adult undergraduates (67% women, 33% men) aged between 18–29 years ( M = 20.31, SD = 2.04 in Wave 1; M = 23.66, SD = 2.08 in Wave 2) from two Spanish universities. Results indicated that identification with commitment decreased, and exploration in depth increased, ove…
Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Among Emerging Adult Undergraduates: A Longitudinal and Two-Cohort Study
Mental disorders constitute one of the population’s principal health problems, especially among undergraduates. This quantitative study compared levels of depression, anxiety, and stress in a sample of emerging adult university undergraduates from a gender perspective (1) during the initial and intermediate years of emerging adulthood and (2) in two different cohorts. A total of 383 Spanish emerging adult university undergraduates were monitored …
Family functioning and mental health before and during the Covid-19 pandemic: A two-cohort comparison of emerging adults
The aim of the present study was to analyze how family relationships changed during the COVID-19 pandemic and to determine whether the health crisis modified the association between family dimensions and emerging adult children’s mental health. A large sample of 1732 emerging adults was recruited at two different moments. In 2015, 755 emerging adults were recruited, 201 from campus A (sample 1) and 554 from campus B (sample 2). In 2020, a new sam…
Family relationships and family predictors of psychological distress in emerging adult college students: A 3-year study
During emerging adulthood, family relationships remain salient. This study examined, from a gender perspective, continuity/discontinuity and stability/instability in family relationships, in a two-time repeated-measures study with Spanish emerging adult college students. It also analyzed the implications of the quality of parent–child relationships for emerging adults’ psychological distress. A sample of 400 Spanish college students aged between …
Civic Engagement in Emerging Adulthood: Variation by Gender and SES, and Association with Personal Adjustment

Emerging adult women scored higher for civic engagement (civic awareness, civic and electoral participation) than men. Civic awa…
Emotional autonomy and adjustment among emerging adults: The moderating role of family relationships
Emerging adults build their personal maturity within the family context; however, few studies focus on the role of emotional autonomy during this stage. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between emotional autonomy and adjustment during emerging adulthood, bearing in mind the possible moderating role of parental support in this relationship. Data were collected from 1,502 Spanish undergraduate students (903 women) aged between …
Perceived Parenting Styles and Adjustment during Emerging Adulthood: A Cross-National Perspective
The aim of the present study is to determine whether the influence of parenting style on children's wellbeing is sustained during emerging adulthood. This is a stage in which young people, despite feeling themselves to be adults, often remain in the family home and continue to be financially dependent on their parents. Moreover, since parents' beliefs, attitudes and behaviors are constructed and interpreted within their cultural milieu, the study…

The IDEA questionnaire is the only validated measure for assessing the characteristics of the emerging adulthood period. A Spanish translation of the IDEA was administered to a sample of 1,435 Spanish undergraduate students. Three confirmatory factor analyses were tested: the six-factor model proposed in the original s…
Stability, change, and determinants of self-esteem during adolescence and emerging adulthood
This research studied the development of self-esteem through adolescence and emerging adulthood. It also analyzed sex differences and the role of family and peers in developmental trends in self-esteem. Data comes from a longitudinal study in which we administered the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale to 90 Spanish boys and girls at ages 13, 15, 17, and 21 years. Results showed a linear increase in self-esteem, higher for boys than for girls, during ad…
