This study examines the influence of family, peer, and biological contributors to dating involvement among early adolescents (11-14 years of age; n = 244). Further, we assess how parental monitoring may be modified by pubertal maturation and older sibling risky behavior. Data on delinquent peer affiliation, pubertal maturation, parental monitoring, older sibling risky behavior, and dating involvement were gathered through observations and surveys from adolescents, mothers, older siblings, and teachers. Results indicate that lower levels of parental monitoring and higher levels of older sibling risky behavior were related to adolescents' dating involvement through delinquent peer affiliation. Pubertal maturation was directly related to dating involvement for early daters. Findings emphasize the value of examining social and biological factors, in concert, over time.
本研究考察了家庭、同伴和生物因素对青少年早期(11-14 岁;n=244)约会参与的影响。此外,我们还评估了青春期成熟和年长兄弟姐妹的冒险行为如何改变父母的监督。通过对青少年、母亲、年长兄弟姐妹和教师的观察和调查,收集了关于不良同伴关系、青春期成熟度、父母监督、年长兄弟姐妹的冒险行为和约会参与的数据。研究结果表明,较低水平的父母监督和较高水平的年长兄弟姐妹的冒险行为与青少年通过不良同伴关系参与约会有关。青春期成熟与早期约会者的约会参与直接相关。研究结果强调了随着时间的推移,同时考察社会和生物因素的重要性。
