Can young people feel more separate from parents while continuing to trust them?
A comparison across five age groups distinguishes emotional separation from perceived parental trust.
Who was studied?
Young people in Japan reporting on emotional separation and trust in parents
Age / stage: 12–25 years
Read with three questions
- Can young people feel more separate from parents while continuing to trust them?
- Whose observations or reports were used, and what competing explanations are compatible with them?
- Which features of the study population (young people in Japan reporting on emotional separation and trust in parents) would matter when applying the findings in another setting?
Keep the limits in view
Different age groups in Japan were compared, rather than the same young people observed throughout adolescence. An age-group contrast need not reflect within-person change.
