Parents of adolescents commonly face separation-related issues associated with children's increasing independence and imminent leave-taking. The aims of this investigation were (1) to develop a reliable and valid measure of parental emotions associated with separation and (2) to validate the measure by relating it to other attributes (attachment relationship quality, parent-child communication, and parent-adolescent differentiation) assessed in mothers, fathers, and their adolescents. The newly constructed, 35-item Parents of Adolescents Separation Anxiety Scale (PASAS) was administered to 686 parents of teenagers in grades 6, 8, 10, and 12 or college-bound freshmen and seniors. Factor analyses supported formation of two subscales: Anxiety about Adolescent Distancing (AAD) and Comfort with Secure Base Role (CSBR); both subscales showed distinctive patterns of change with child age. Parents' reports indicated that healthy adult attachment styles were associated with lower AAD and higher CSBR scores; children of parents who had higher AAD scores reported lower quality of attachment to both mothers and fathers.
青少年的父母通常会面临与孩子日益增强的独立性和即将离家相关的分离问题。本调查的目的是：（1）开发一种可靠且有效的测量父母与分离相关情绪的方法；（2）通过将该测量方法与母亲、父亲及其青少年所评估的其他属性（依恋关系质量、亲子沟通和亲子分化）相关联来验证该测量方法。新构建的包含35个条目的青少年父母分离焦虑量表（PASAS）被施测于686名六年级、八年级、十年级和十二年级的青少年父母或即将进入大学的大一和大四学生的父母。因素分析支持形成两个子量表：对青少年疏远的焦虑（AAD）和对安全基地角色的舒适度（CSBR）；两个子量表都显示出随孩子年龄变化而变化的独特模式。父母的报告表明，健康的成人依恋风格与较低的AAD和较高的CSBR得分相关；AAD得分较高的父母的孩子报告对母亲和父亲的依恋质量较低。
