In a sample on 243 adolescents, it was investigated whether idealization is a necessary consequence for adolescents experiencing parental divorce. Earlier studies emphasized the negative effects of parental divorce on the development of children and adolescents. Due to historic changes in family structure, however, parental divorce has to be conceptualized in more positive terms. In the study presented, idealization of the non-custodial father was only found in a clinical subsample of adolescents, whereas the father-adolescent relationship in non-clinical adolescents from divorced families did not differ significantly from the quality of relationship described by non-clinical adolescents living in two-parent families. The function of idealization in coping with negative affects such as aggression and affliction is discussed, in particular for those adolescents in the clinical sample who rarely have contact with their non-custodial fathers, and the contributions of fathers to hold up this idealization outlined. Idealistic conceptions in adolescents of divorced parents are especially problematic, since adolescents are expected to become disengaged of their parents and develop a mature and realistic perception of them.
在一个由243名青少年组成的样本中，研究了理想化是否是经历父母离异的青少年必然会产生的结果。早期研究强调了父母离异对儿童和青少年发展的负面影响。然而，由于家庭结构的历史性变化，必须从更积极的角度对父母离异进行概念化。在本研究中，只有在青少年的一个临床子样本中发现了对非监护父亲的理想化，而来自离异家庭的非临床青少年中，父子关系与生活在双亲家庭中的非临床青少年所描述的关系质量没有显著差异。讨论了理想化在应对诸如攻击性和痛苦等负面影响方面的作用，特别是对于临床样本中很少与非监护父亲接触的青少年，并概述了父亲在维持这种理想化方面所起的作用。离异父母的青少年中的理想化观念尤其成问题，因为青少年应该与父母脱离关系，并对他们形成成熟和现实的认知。
