青年心理学の観点からみた「第二反抗期」(<特集>若者のこころに迫る : 今、第二反抗期は?)

抄録

This paper attempts to illustrate the conflicts between adolescents and their parents in the perspective of adolescent psychology. Traditional adolescent psychology has indicated that the conflicts are normative in adoloscents' separation from their parents. However, contemporary emipirical studies have suggesuted that it is shown if familial system is inadequate to the increament in their autonomy and that adolescents-parents attachment promotes their independence. The self-reporoted descriptions by Japanese university and college students suggest that the conflicts are not always attributed to familial inadequacy and that familial inadequacy does not always bring the conflicts. Thus the third model is suggested.
