Book Social Goals and Strategies in Adolescent Peer Conflict Situations

Download or read book Social Goals and Strategies in Adolescent Peer Conflict Situations written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adolescence is a period of important physical, social, emotional, and cognitive changes. Peer relationships become more complex and diverse, and adolescents must learn to negotiate varying relationship dynamics, including conflict with their peers. Limited research has been conducted, however, to understand how adolescents manage peer conflict. In order to expand the focus of research regarding social goals and strategies in adolescent peer conflict, 230 college students in late adolescence (ages 18-21) responded to 15 hypothetical conflict scenarios. The goals late adolescents' endorsed for peer conflicts were meaningfully related to the strategies they chose to resolve such conflicts. One-third of the sample was found to have a distinct 'goal orientation' in response to the peer conflict vignettes. As expected, adolescents in this study with different goal orientations were found to favor different strategies, and they endorsed strategies consistent with their specific goal orientation. In contrast to studies with children, few significant gender differences were found between men and women in their overall preferences for goals or strategies in peer conflicts situations. However, when males' and females' goal and strategy preferences were analyzed across different types of relationships (i.e., best friends, roommates, and romantic partners), significant gender differences were apparent. Late adolescent males showed little difference in their endorsement of conflict goals for a best friend or romantic partner; both were equally valued whereas roommates were viewed negatively. Women, in contrast, rated their best friends with a greater sense of priority than romantic partners or roommates. Implications of the results for understanding adolescents' conflict resolution skills with peers are discussed.

Book Personal Relationships During Adolescence

Download or read book Personal Relationships During Adolescence written by Raymond Montemayor and published by SAGE Publications, Incorporated. This book was released on 1994-04-29 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Educators will find much useful information in this book. It offers insights for program and curriculum planning and suggests numerous topics for stimulating discussions with teens. It also raises provocative issues about how the developmental needs of youth can be served more effectively by families, communities, and educators. The book holds the potential to define personal relations as an integrated line of study that serves to develop theory and research beyond contextual boundaries. The contributors analyze the ways in which critical interpersonal bonds are forged and maintained. The relationships discussed are: The parent-teen connection; the impact of cultural diversity on teens' social development; same-sex friends as well as opposite-sex friends during adolescence; heterosexual, bisexual, gay and lesbian romantic relationships; adolescent crowds (or cliques); and relationships involving non-kin adults. The authors also explore conceptual issues that cut across relationships and the problem of integrating the views of both individuals in a relationship.

Book Adolescents and Conflict with Peers

Download or read book Adolescents and Conflict with Peers written by Debra Ann DeBates and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Family structure impacted self-esteem scores with students in two-parent families demonstrating significantly higher self-esteem scores. A second MANOVA using the same predictor variables and the four-conflict management styles as the outcome variables were computed. Results indicated no significant main effects or interaction effects on the combined outcome variables. The direct effects of the personality dimensions on each of the four conflict management styles and the effects as mediated by self-esteem were analyzed using structural equation modeling path analysis. A comparison of the model was conducted for males and females as well as for comparing groups based on grade point averages. Results indicated that the model had some validity for at least one conflict management style, the Compromising/Collaborating style. Significant differences between males and females and students of varying grade point averages were also discovered.

Book Family Peer Relationships

Download or read book Family Peer Relationships written by Ross D. Parke and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-10 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1992, this volume provided an up-to-date overview of recent research concerning the links between family and peer systems. Considerable work in the past had focused on family issues or peer relationships, but these systems had typically been considered separately. This volume bridges the gap across these two important socialization contexts and provides insights into the processes that account for the links across the systems – the ways in which the relationships between these systems shift across development. In addition, the variations in the links between family and peers are illustrated by cross-cultural work, studies of abused children, and research on the impact of maternal depression. In short, the volume provides not only a convenient overview of recent progress at the time but lays out an agenda for future research.
