“…Cependant, le faible engagement parental constitue la dimension primordiale dans le développement de symptômes dépressifs chez les jeunes et cette dimension est associée autant à la dépression chez les filles que chez les garçons. Ces résultats corroborent ceux de quelques études antérieures proposant une relation entre l'engagement parental et les troubles intériorisés, et entre le style parental désengagé et les troubles intériorisés (McFarlane, Bellissimo et Norman, 1995). Ainsi, les parents chaleureux, sensibles et engagés diminuent le risque d'apparition de symptômes de dépression chez leurs adolescents.…”

“…Dans la présente étude, la dépression chez les jeunes apparaît comme reliée à un trop faible encadrement parental. Or, les études antérieures proposent plutôt qu'un contrôle parental excessif soit en relation avec la dépression chez les adolescents (McFarlane et al, 1995), et ce, particulièrement chez les filles (Friedrich et al, 1988). Les recherches devront investiguer davantage la dimension de l'encadrement ou du contrôle en relation avec la dépression.…”

Dans cette étude, l’association entre les dimensions du style parental démocratique et la présence de symptômes de dépression et de troubles du comportement est examinée chez des adolescents de milieu scolaire en regard du sexe. Ensuite, l’association entre ces problématiques et le risque d’abandon scolaire est évaluée. Un échantillon de 761 élèves, âgés de 11 à 15 ans de trois régions du Québec, ont complété les mesures lors de cours ordinaires. Les résultats confirment que la dépression caractérise davantage les filles alors que les troubles du comportement sont davantage présents chez les garçons. Même s’il est lié à ces deux problématiques, le risque d’abandon scolaire se rattache plus aux symptômes de dépression que les troubles du comportement. Le faible engagement parental prédit la présence de symptômes dépressifs, alors qu’un faible encouragement à l’autonomie et un faible engagement parental prédisent les troubles du comportement chez les garçons.This study examines the association between a democratic parental style and the presence of both depression symptoms and behaviour problems in adolescents in school. The association between these measures, gender, and risk for school dropout is examined. A study of 761 students, aged 11 to 15 years, from three Quebec regions responded to various measures during class time. The results confirm that depression is present most often in girls, whereas behaviour problems were most often noted for boys. Although these factors were associated with risk for school dropout, this risk is more strongly predicted by depression symptoms than by behaviour problems. The authors found that weak parental commitment could be used to predict the presence of depression symptoms, while little parental encouragement for autonomy and weak commitment could be used to predict behaviour problems in boys.En este estudio se examina la asociación entre el estilo parental democrático y la presencia de síntomas de depresión y de problemas de conducta según sexo de alumnos adolescentes. Luego son evaluadas la relaciones entre estas problemáticas y el riesgo de abandono escolar. Para ello, se han realizado evaluaciones en cursos regulares sobre una muestra de 761 alumnos de 11 a 15 años de tres regiones del Quebec. Los resultados confirman que la depresión es mas frecuente en las niñas mientras que los problemas de comportamiento son mas frecuentes en los varones. Mismo si asociado a esas dos problemáticas, el riesgo de abandono escolar es mas predecible por los síntomas de depresión que por los problemas de comportamiento. Un pobre compromiso parental indica la presencia de síntomas depresivos, mientas que poco estímulo a la autonomía combinado con poco compromiso parental predicen problemas de conducta en los varones.In dieser Studie wird der Zusammenhang zwischen einem demokratischen Erziehungsstil der Eltern und Depressionssymptomen sowie Verhaltensstörungen bei Jugendlichen im Schulmilieu auf geschlechtsspezifischer Grundlage untersucht. Außerdem wird erörtert, in wieweit diese Problemati...

“…Future research should distinguish between aspects of positive and negative parenting by the legal guardian and home environment instead of parent/guardian status. Some studies in different samples have found that factors such as family conflict, quality of foster care, and parenting style may be more important in influencing a range of negative outcomes (Fergusson et al, 2007;Kessler et al, 2008;McFarlane, Bellissimo, & Norman, 1995).…”

The present study examined community/tribe, peer/family, and individual correlates of suicidal behaviour in a representative on-reserve sample of First Nations Bivariate logistic regression analyses were used to examine the relationships between a range of factors and lifetime suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, and any suicidality. A multivariate logistic regression analysis identified those correlates most strongly related to any suicidality. Findings showed that several correlates were found to be associated with an increased likelihood of suicidal behaviour, including being female, depressed mood, abuse/fear of abuse, a hospital stay, and substance use. Results of this study will likely be of importance in informing First Nations and government policy related to the implementation of suicide prevention strategies in Manitoban First Nations communities.Correlates of Suicidality iii Acknowledgements

“…Extensive literature exists on the negative influence of disruptive family events on adolescent well-being (McFarlane et al 1995). For example, in a series of studies, Shek (1997aShek ( -c, 1998bShek ( , 2002a has demonstrated negative correlations exist between LS and both parental and child indicators of parent-child conflict and poor family functioning among Chinese adolescents and their parents.…”

Youth Life Satisfaction: A Review of the Literature

2008

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

A central construct within the positive psychology literature is life satisfaction. Whereas adult life satisfaction has been studied extensively, the life satisfaction of children and adolescents has only received attention more recently. This article provides a review of the extant research on youth life satisfaction. Empirical studies (n = 141) on life satisfaction among youth are reviewed. The review details how life satisfaction among youth relates to various other important emotional, social, and behavioural constructs. Evidenced by the review are the conditions that foster positive life satisfaction and the implications of positive life satisfaction among youth. Future directions in life satisfaction research among youth are briefly discussed.Keywords Life satisfaction Á Adolescent Á Children Á Subjective well-being Á Happiness Á Review Recently the burgeoning field of positive psychology has re-illuminated the need for psychology to address areas associated with optimal functioning and happiness. From the time of Aristotle (1925), the pursuit of happiness and the achievement of the 'good life' has been a major concern among philosophers and theologians, and was included as a foundational mission of psychology (Seligman 2002b;Seligman and Csikszentmihalyi 2000). Within the field of psychology the study of 'happiness' generally falls under investigations of subjective well-being (SWB) (see Diener 1984;Diener 1994;Diener et al. 1999, for reviews). The SWB construct is a tripartite category of phenomena, which includes: emotional responses (i.e. positive affect (e.g. joy, optimism) and negative affect (e.g. sadness, anger)), domain satisfactions (e.g. work satisfaction, relationship satisfaction), and global judgements of life satisfaction (LS) (Diener et al. 1999). In the research literature the components of SWB are often used interchangeably with each other and considered synonymous with term 'happiness' (Diener 1994;Seligman 2002a); despite that the term
