Perfectionism shapes the way adolescents perceive family acceptance over time
Previous theory and research linked perfectionism to contingent self-worth and conditional acceptance, but little research directly investigated how adolescents' perfectionism and their perceived family acceptance shape each other over time. The present study is the first to investigate the reciprocal longitudinal relations between adolescents' perfectionism and their perceived family acceptance. The study examined a sample of 264 adolescents (ag…
The relationship between education, agency, and socialization goals in a sample of mothers of preschoolers
The Ecocultural Model of Development states that parents’ cultural model mediates the relationship between their educational level and their socialization goals. Cultural models refer to beliefs shared by members of a community, and they result from the combination of two dimensions: agency and interpersonal distance. Moreover, both agency and interpersonal distance are made up of explicit and implicit components. In the present study, we focused…
The Struggle to Find Meaning: A Mixed Methodology Study on Meaning-Making and Identity
Recent reviews underscored the need for a better link between different identity models in order to enhance our knowledge of identity development. In the present study, we used a mixed methodology design to investigate how the integration of process-oriented and narrative life-story approaches can be used to better understand the complexity of identity pursuits. Participants were 84 Romanian emerging adults ( M age = 23.24 years; SD age = 2.11 ye…

This study examined mothers’ responses to foster emotional competence from a cultural perspective. Fifty‐one European American, 52 Turkish, and 40 Romanian mothers of 2‐year‐old children provided open‐ended responses to vignettes of anger‐, sadness‐, fear‐, and happiness‐eliciting situations. Mothers’ responses were compared between the family models of independence (United States) and psychological interdependence (Turkey, Romania) to understand…
Individual Differences in Infants' Emotional Resonance to a Peer in Distress: Self–Other Awareness and Emotion Regulation
In this study, relations between emotional resonance responses to another's distress, emotion regulation, and self‐other discrimination were investigated in infants three‐, six‐, and nine‐months‐old. We measured the emotional reactions to the pain cry of a peer, along with the ability to regulate emotions and to discriminate between self and other body movements. We found evidence that infants do regulate their emotional resonance responses to an…
