“…When examining the discriminatory power of the alexithymia construct, Zimmermann (2006) found that both alexithymia and disrupted family structure emerged as strong predictors of juvenile delinquency. Empirical links between alexithymia and behavioral problems in youth have also been reported in other studies on risk-taking behaviors (Brejard, Bonnet, & Pedinielli, 2005), substance abuse (Dorard et al, 2008), and adolescent violence (Marohn, 1992).…”

The 20-item Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20; Bagby, Parker, & Taylor, 1994; Bagby, Taylor, & Parker, 1994) is the most widely used self-report measure of the alexithymia construct. The TAS-20 comprises 3 factors that assess difficulty identifying feelings, difficulty describing feelings, and externally oriented thinking. Although the instrument is being increasingly used with adolescent respondents, the psychometric properties of the TAS-20 have not been systematically evaluated in preadult populations. In the present study, we examined measurement invariance of the factor structure, internal reliability, and mean levels of responses on the TAS-20 in groups of younger adolescents (aged 13-14 years), middle adolescents (aged 15-16 years), and older adolescents (aged 17-18 years), as well as in a comparison group of young adults (aged 19-21 years). Formal readability analysis of the TAS-20 assessment was also conducted. Results revealed systematic age differences in the factor structure and psychometric properties of the TAS-20, with the quality of measurement progressively deteriorating with younger age. Much of this effect could be attributed to the reading difficulty of the scale. The use of the TAS-20 with teenage respondents is not recommended without appropriate adaptation and further psychometric validation. Several adaptation strategies are discussed.

“…Ainsi, plus les sujets auront un niveau de conscience émotionnelle faible, en particulier dans sa dimension soi, associé à une forte recherche de nouveauté, plus ils auront tendance à s'engager dans des conduites à risques. Ce résultat vient soutenir ceux issus d'une précédente recherche réalisée sur un échantillon plus modeste [4], ainsi que les observations cliniques mettant en relief les difficultés des adolescents « preneurs de risques » à rendre compte de leurs éprouvés subjectifs. Ces résultats appellent à plusieurs réflexions concernant les limites de cette étude.…”

As hypothesized, temperamental dispositions of novelty seeking and harm avoidance, associated with weak emotional awareness, were associated with risk-taking. They may be considered as vulnerability factors for adolescents to engage in risk-taking behaviors. Several propositions may explain our results. First, risk-taking might be considered as an attempt to struggle against a sensation of emptiness due to a lack of emotion. Second, it may tend to replace emotion by sensations, which could be more controlled. Third, it could be an attempt - without success - to construct the complexity of subjective emotional experience.
