Download or read book Examining the Parent Young Adult Relationship During the Transition to College The Impact of Mismatched Expectations About Autonomy on College Student Adjustment written by DenYelle C. Baete Kenyon and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study examined individuation and expectations for autonomous behavior (EAB) with incoming college freshmen and their parents. To test the theory that greater mismatch between young adults and their parents about EAB would be associated with more negative adjustment to college, Collins' (1990) Expectancy-Violation Model was applied. Data were initially collected with online questionnaires from incoming college freshmen and one of their parents before the transition to college. Follow-up data (W2) were collected three months later to assess adjustment to college. Individuation was measured with the Late Adolescence Individuation Questionnaire; EAB and reports of actual autonomous behavior were assessed with a measure based on the Psychological Separation Inventory. College student adjustment was measured with indicators of psychological well-being (i.e., psychosomatic symptoms, depressive symptoms, positive affect) and adaptation to college (i.e., college self-efficacy, satisfaction with college, and anticipated fall college grades). Open-ended data were collected from young adults and their parents describing topics of autonomy behavior where they perceived disagreement. A MANOVA indicated that there were significant differences between the four individuation groups (a) individuated (high connectedness and high separateness), (b) pseudoautonomous (low connectedness and high separateness), (c) dependent (high connectedness and low separateness), and (d) ambiguous (low connectedness and low separateness) on the young adults' adjustment to college. Post-hoc planned comparisons revealed that college students in the"individuated"group were consistently better off than those in the"ambiguous"group. Some support was found for the hypothesis that a higher discrepancy (a) between parent and young adult EAB and (b) between young adults' reports of expected versus actual autonomous behaviors was associated with lower W2 young adult well-being. Quality of parent-young adult communication was found to moderate some of these associations. Qualitative data somewhat supported the quantitative results, as well as illustrated unique areas for disagreement on EAB. Jointly, these quantitative and qualitative findings suggest that young adults' level of individuation from parents and a mismatch between parents' and young adults' perceptions of future autonomous behavior may impact college students' psychological well-being during the transition to college.

Book excerpt: Parentification - the assumption of responsibility for the welfare of family members by children and adolescents - is increasing as a result of various forces both inside and outside of the family. Evidence suggests that pathological parentification of children has serious consequences for them, and for succeeding generations, as do other forms of maltreatment.; This work is an exploration of the forces at work in families with parentified children - and the treatment strategies that hold the promise of interrupting a cycle of destructive behaviour.; The author begins by guiding the reader from conceptualization to possible causes and manifestations of parentification, facilitating a clear understanding of how and why this scenario is common. The second part of the book builds on this foundation to introduce methods of assesment, treatment, and prevention. This part of the text includes insights into the professional, ethical and personal challenges faced by therapists who themselves have a history of pathological parentification.

Book excerpt: What are the developmental effects on children who must fulfill the family role of parent? Editor Nancy D. Chase defines parentified children as children who are compelled to perform the role of parent at the expense of their own developmentally appropriate needs and pursuits. With uncanny sensibilities, these children are attuned to their parents moods, wishes, vulnerabilities, and nuances. This volume is a comprehensive study of parentification in the family, covering both theoretical as well as clinical topics by a group of distinguished contributors. Students, academics, and professionals in family studies, social work, child abuse, developmental psychology, school psychology, and family therapy will find Burdened Children an excellent resource on this phenomenon.

Book A Phenomenological Study of Guilt in the Separation and Adjustment Process of the Female  Only Child  Freshman College Student

Download or read book A Phenomenological Study of Guilt in the Separation and Adjustment Process of the Female Only Child Freshman College Student written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The separation-individuation process is a lifelong journey. It involves the gradual separation from ones parents to a more independent life. For many Caucasian, middle class young adults, leaving home and transitioning to college is the most overt statement of parental separation and increased independence. Only children are faced with a unique challenge in this separation process. The family system of the only child is unique in that only children often are more interconnected with parents and may experience strong feelings of dependency. Therefore, as an only child separates from her parents, she is faced with the unique challenge of living with the enlargement of her living system as she copes with the strong emotions associated with separation and the subsequent relinquishment of the responsibility she feels for her parents' wellbeing. This qualitative dissertation explores the meaning of guilt in the separation and adjustment process for five female, only child, freshman college students. An open-ended interview protocol, analyzed horizontally and vertically, produced clusters of meanings leading to the essential set of meanings for this group of participants. While making a positive overall adjustment, many participants faced marked feelings of loss and guilt during the initial separation from their parents. Many participants described profound fears and guilt about injuring their parents through their choice to separate and attend college. Future research on the differential experience of male, only child, Caucasian freshman college students is recommended.
