“…If the parents do not renegotiate their restrictions and rules, the asynchrony between parents and their children becomes stronger. Sometimes parents' "over-management" of their children's activities may be perceived by adolescents as inappropriate as well as intrusive (Galambos, Barker, & Almeida, 2003), especially in 6 STRUCTURAL RELATIONS BETWEEN SOURCES OF PARENTAL KNOWLEDGE families with distinctively coercive parenting where adolescent-parent conflict is high (Sorkhabi & Middaugh, 2014). Consequently, adolescents may try to escape such intrusiveness and react by getting involved in behaviors that parents do not approve of, which, in turn, may help the adolescents to regain their sense of autonomy (Kakihara, TiltonWeaver, Kerr, & Stattin, 2010).…”

“…Open communication between parents and their children is a fundamental element of interdependence between family members, where adolescents' active agency in parent-child communication may contribute to parents having information about their adolescent children's activities. Also, in families where parents' demands of and support to adolescents are high, parents' rules and regulations may be perceived as relevant and helpful, and not intrusive (Sorkhabi & Middaugh, 2014).…”

Structural relations between sources of parental knowledge, feelings of being overly controlled and risk behaviors in early adolescence.

Permanent link to this version:http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:hj:diva-37206In this study, we have investigated parental knowledge and its sources, namely adolescent disclosure, parental control, and parental solicitation; and how they relate to adolescents' feelings of being overly controlled, and to three types of adolescent risk behaviors, namely bullying, substance use and delinquent behavior. This was studied in a sample of 1520 Swedish early adolescent boys and girls (M age = 13.0). A structural equation path model showed that adolescent disclosure and parental control were positively associated with parental knowledge, which in turn related to all three risk behaviors. Adolescent disclosure was related to lower levels of risk behaviors, while parental solicitation was linked to higher levels of adolescent engagement in risk behaviors, especially for boys, through feelings of being overly controlled. The findings support the idea of a functional role of open communication, as well as adequate levels of autonomy granting, for managing boys' and girls' risk behavior.

“…Authoritative parenting as a set of parenting practices and an overall approach to or style of parenting has consistently been found to be the most effective style for fostering positive adolescent outcomes across cultures and demographics (Hoeve, Dubas, Gerris, van der Laan, & Smeenk, ; Kordi & Baharudin, ; Smetana, ; Smetana & Ahmad, ). Recent conceptualizations of authoritative parenting distinguish this parenting style from others by its promotion of adolescent autonomy as opposed to psychological control; parental knowledge derived from adolescent self‐disclosure as opposed to intrusive monitoring tactics; demandingness in a “rational and reasoned way that accounts for adolescents' perspective or circumstance” (Sorkhabi & Middaugh, , p. 1232), which Baumrind () called “confrontative parental power assertion and discipline”; adolescents' viewing of their parents' authority as legitimate as influential in outcomes; and parental warmth, emotional support, and responsiveness to adolescents' needs (Karavasilis, Doyle, & Markiewicz, ; Smetana, ).…”

There is both the necessity and the capacity for unification across the discipline of family science. This article offers another step toward a comprehensive, integrated body of theory and research shared across our discipline. Specifically, we address how family systems thinking has been reflected in attachment, parenting, and adolescent identity literature, and we present bidimensional models and integrated spectrums emphasizing how levels of differentiation, adolescent internal working models of attachment, parenting styles, and adolescent identity statuses are conceptually intertwined as systemic intrapsychic and interpersonal processes. These theories and concepts, when considered as an integrated whole, invite theoretical complexity that advances the understanding of family processes and guides new research questions. We propose that family systems theory is a holistic framework that is ideal for integrating these concepts in a way that goes beyond highlighting their common factors. We conclude with the benefits and barriers to comprehensive integration across family science.

“…Plusieurs études ont également montré que les adolescents étaient plus enclins à dévoiler des informations lorsque les parents adoptaient un style parental soutenant l'autonomie (Roth, Ron, & Benita, 2009), ou un style démocratique (« authoritative ») caractérisé par un niveau élevé de contrôle comportemental et de sensibilité aux besoins de l'enfant (p. ex., Almas et al, 2011 ;Sorkhabi & Middaugh, 2014 ;Wissink, Dekovic, & Meijer, 2006). De plus, dans d'autres recherches, les adolescents interrogés révélaient plus d'informations lorsqu'ils percevaient leurs parents comme ouverts à la communication (p.…”

La connaissance parentale des activités de temps libre des adolescents est largement reconnue comme un facteur protecteur pour l’ajustement psychosocial des adolescents. Les parents savent (ou ignorent) ce que leurs adolescents effectuent hors de la supervision parentale parce que leurs enfants partagent (ou dissimulent) des informations sur leurs activités ou leurs amitiés. Ainsi, durant cette période développementale marquée par un besoin accru d’indépendance, les adolescents utilisent plusieurs stratégies (p. ex., libre divulgation, secrets, mensonges) pour gérer les informations détenues par leurs parents. L’objectif de cet article est de passer en revue ces différents moyens, de présenter leur fonction développementale et de discuter de leurs conséquences sur l’adaptation psychosociale des adolescents et sur la relation avec leurs parents. Cet article propose également de s’interroger sur les raisons pour lesquelles les adolescents choisissent de divulguer ou de cacher des informations, notamment en abordant successivement leurs motifs personnels et les caractéristiques de la relation avec leurs parents.
