The separation-individuation, evolutionary, maturational, and expectancy violation-realignment perspectives propose that the relationship between parents and adolescents deteriorate as adolescents become independent. This study examines the extent to which the development of adolescents' perceived relationship with their parents is consistent with the four perspectives. A latent transition analysis was performed in a two-cohort five-wave longitudinal study design covering ages 12-16 (n = 919, 49.2% female) and 16-20 (n = 392, 56.6% female). Generally, from 12 to 16 year adolescents moved away from parental authority and perceived increasing conflicts with their parents, whereas from 16 to 20 years adolescents perceived independence and improved their relationships with parents. Hereby, we also identified substantial patterns of individual differences. Together, these general and individual patterns provide fine-grained insights in relationship quality development.
分离-个体化、进化、成熟以及期望违背-重新调整等观点认为，随着青少年变得独立，父母与青少年之间的关系会恶化。本研究考察了青少年所感知到的与父母关系的发展在多大程度上与这四种观点相一致。在一项两队列五波纵向研究设计中进行了潜在转变分析，该研究涵盖了12至16岁（n = 919，女性占49.2%）和16至20岁（n = 392，女性占56.6%）的青少年。总体而言，12至16岁的青少年逐渐摆脱父母的权威，并感觉到与父母的冲突日益增加，而16至20岁的青少年则感受到了独立性，并改善了与父母的关系。据此，我们还识别出了显著的个体差异模式。这些总体模式和个体模式共同为关系质量发展提供了细致入微的见解。
