Binge eating and binge drinking behaviors: Individual differences in adolescents' identity styles
No full textConsidering the significant negative consequences that are directly related to binge eating and drinking behaviors, many studies have explored the reasons why adolescents engage in them. This study examined the differences in the development, maintenance, and co-occurrence of "binge" behaviors associated with adolescent's identity style and the level of commitment. One thousand four hundred Italian adolescents completed self-report measures assessing binge behaviors and identity styles. Overall, results show that diffused adolescents were more likely to be engaged in binge eating and binge drinking behaviors than others, validating the idea that the achievement of a consolidated ego identity is important for enhancing well-being. © The Author(s) 2013

Genitori-adolescenti: autonomia e connessione
No full textL’adolescenza è un’età densa di repentini cambiamenti, in cui si intrecciano difficoltà di tipo affettivo, emotivo e relazionale. In questo complesso scenario, le scelte dell’adolescente possono esercitare influenze pervasive sulla sua salute, sul suo benessere psicosociale e sull’adattamento all’ambiente in cui vive. Il volume affronta il tema del benessere psicosociale dell’adolescente in un’ottica multidisciplinare, integrando teorie classiche e modelli recenti, confrontando i risultati di ricerche nazionali e internazionali, analizzando l’intreccio di fattori individuali, relazionali e ambientali, quali: lo sviluppo cerebrale e i processi decisionali; la qualità delle relazioni familiari; la conquista dell’autonomia; le caratteristiche delle reti amicali; le modalità di utilizzo di Internet; le condotte antisociali e il bullismo; l’insorgenza di comportamenti a rischio e la loro prevenzione; il contesto sociale e urbano in cui cresce l’adolescente
The role of parental control and coping strategies on adolescents’ problem behaviors
Full text linkThe current study was aimed at contributing to the understanding of the role of perceived parental monitoring, psychological control, and coping strategies on adolescents’ problem behaviors, in terms of anxiety and drinking behavior. Participants were 541 high school students, 17 to 19-year old (M = 17.09, SD = 0.80) high school students in Sicily and Calabria (Italy). Participants completed self-report measures assessing parental monitoring, psychological control, coping strategies (i.e., Task-Oriented, Emotion-Oriented, and Avoidance-Oriented). Results of the path analysis showed that coping strategies play a mediating role in the association between parental psychological control and both adolescents’ anxiety and drinking behavior. Furthermore, a direct positive association was reported from parental psychological control and anxiety, while a negative direct association was reported from parental monitoring to drinking behavior. Results of this study provide a comprehensive model that showed that the different coping strategies could explain the psychological mechanisms that underline the associations between two different kinds of parental control (psychological control and monitoring) and both internalizing and externalizing adolescents’ form of maladjustment (e.g. anxiety and drinking behaviors). Overall, coping strategies seem to be a fruitful target for the prevention programs for adolescents’ anxiety and drinking behaviors
Associations between perceived parental psychological control and internalizing difficulties in emerging adulthood: The role of identity
No full textOur study investigated the associations among two expressions of perceived parental psychological control (dependency-oriented parental control [DPC] and achievement-oriented parental control [APC]), identity, a
nd internalizing difficulties among college attending emerging adults. In particular, our aim was to examine the potential role of identity in the pathways linking both DPC and APC to internalizing difficulties. Our
participants included 495 Italian college students (49% males), between 19 and 28 years of age (mean=23.37 years, standard deviation=2.35). Our findings highlighted the existence of associations between APC, identity , and internalizing difficulties. Specifically, APC was negatively related to identity that, in turn, was related to both anxiety and depressive symptoms. Moreover, APC showed direct effects on internalizing difficulties, whereas DPC had neither direct nor indirect effects on the outcomes. Overall, our findings highlighted the importance of examining the different contribution of the two forms of parental psychological control to emerging adults’ internalizing difficulties via identity
