The purpose of this study was to examine the differences and similarities between Italy and Spain in regard to emerging adults' perceptions of identity status, autonomy, attachment, and life satisfaction. The goal was to verify whether a Mediterranean model of transitions from adolescence to adulthood exists. Three hundred and forty undergraduate students (171 Italians and 169 Spanish) ranging in age from 19 to 22 completed measures of identity status, emotional autonomy, attachment style, and life satisfaction. Multiple correspondence analyses provided a graphic synthesis of results. The results indicate that no common model of young adult development exists in Spain and Italy and that Italian youth have a more complex quality of development compared to their Spanish peers.
本研究的目的是考察意大利和西班牙在新兴成年人对身份认同状态、自主性、依恋及生活满意度的认知方面的异同。目标是验证从青春期到成年期的地中海式转变模式是否存在。340名年龄在19至22岁之间的本科生（171名意大利人，169名西班牙人）完成了身份认同状态、情感自主性、依恋风格及生活满意度的测量。多重对应分析提供了结果的图形综合展示。结果表明，西班牙和意大利不存在共同的青年成人发展模式，且与西班牙同龄人相比，意大利青年的发展质量更为复杂。
