Identity processes and quality of emotional autonomy: The contribution of two developmental tasks on middle-adolescents’ subjective well-being
This study examined the concurrent and predictive relationships between identity-related processes of commitment and exploration, emotional autonomy quality-related constructs of separation and detachment, and subjective well-being, measured through life satisfaction. Four hundred and sixty-one middle-adolescents (227 boys, 234 girls) completed measures of identity, emotional autonomy quality, and satisfaction within different domains. Results showed concurrent and predictive positive relations between commitment, separation and satisfaction with self, and negative relations between exploration, detachment, and satisfaction with self. Results also showed that the relation between satisfaction with self and detachment was different for adolescents who had high levels of commitment and low levels of exploration. Findings suggest a moderator role of high commitment and low exploration in the relation between detachment and self-satisfaction

Homophobic bullying among adolescents: The role of insecure-dismissing attachment and peer support
The study aimed to investigate the relationship between attachment style and homophobic bullying in adolescence, focusing on the role of peer support. Participants were 334 adolescents and young-adults (141 boys and 193 girls) aged from 15–20 years (M = 16.50; SD = 0.87). Participants completed the Homophobic Bullying Scale, the Relationship Questionnaire, and the Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment. The results demonstrated that boys manifested a higher level of homophobic bullying than girls and girls reported higher level of peer’s support than boys. Regression analyses displayed that insecure-dismissing attachment positively predicted homophobic bullying in adolescence. However, security and safety among peers are positive predictors of homophobic bullying and communication among peers is a negative predictor. Results also showed a moderator effect of peer support in the relationship between insecure-dismissing attachment and homophobic bullying, such that at higher levels of insecure-dismissing attachment, homophobic bullying tended to be higher when peer support (trust on peers) was low and to be lower when social support from peers was high. Theoretical and practical implications are provided

Detachment from parents, problem behaviors, and the moderating role of parental support among Italian adolescents
Abstract
This study examined the relationship of emotional detachment from parents, parental support and problem behaviors, and focused on the unique and common contribution that detachment and parental support made to internalizing and externalizing behavioral problems. A total of 461 young adolescents, 13 to 14 years old (M = 13.4; SD = .44), 234 boys and 227 girls, completed self-reporting measures of detachment, parental support, and internalizing and externalizing problems. Data showed that detachment was related positively to internalizing problem behaviors. Results revealed that parental support played a moderating role in the relationship between detachment and internalizing problems, such that, at higher levels of detachment, internalizing problems tended to be lower when parental support was high
