We analyzed 3 waves of panel data from a study (Flourishing Families Project) of 500 families with children who were 10-13 years old at Time 1. This study includes information from the perspective of the child and his/her mother and father over a 4 year period for two parent families and from the child and his/her mother for single parent families. Findings supported our hypothesis that parents’ sense of connectedness to their adolescent child, and the child’s sense of attachment to each parent support the adolescent’s healthy separation over time .We provide evidence for novel methods of assessing family processes, by using multiple perspectives to view change in parent-adolescent relationships over time for families with young adolescents. 2012-08-24 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1343408961 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1343408961 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
