• TITLE: The Dialogue and the Relationship with Parents and Friends: A Research on Italian Adolescents’ Representations

  AUTHORS: Giulia Savarese

  KEYWORDS: Adolescent, Communication, Family, Group of Peers

  JOURNAL NAME: Psychology, Vol.7 No.4, April 28, 2016

  ABSTRACT: The goal was to understand what representations Italian adolescents have about the dialogue and the relationship with their parents and with the peer group, as well as to evaluate any differences. We interviewed 400 Italian adolescents, 200 males and 200 females, aged between 14 and 19 years. The instruments used were an ad hoc questionnaire and a free story. The results show significant differences in the communicative/relational support by parents and by the peer group, especially in relation to the confidences of their personal problems, the choice autonomy and the behaviors that encourage independence.
