本研究旨在探讨青少年依恋组织对青少年中期社会技能发展和犯罪行为的预测作用。对117名16岁和18岁的中度高危青少年的犯罪活动和技能水平进行了评估,并在16岁时对母亲和青少年的依恋组织和互动自主性进行了评估。青少年依恋安全预测社会技能从16岁到18岁的相对增长。而一个关注不安全感的依恋组织预测,在此期间,犯罪率会上升。此外,随着时间的推移,与高度自主的母亲互动的全神贯注的青少年在技能水平上表现出更大的相对下降和犯罪活动的增加,这表明在全神贯注的青少年中,他们可能会受到越来越多的自主性的威胁。
This study examined adolescent attachment organization as a predictor of the development of social skills and delinquent behavior during midadolescence. Delinquent activity and skill levels were assessed for 117 moderately at-risk adolescents at ages 16 and 18, and maternal and adolescent attachment organization and autonomy in interactions were assessed at age 16. Adolescent attachment security predicted relative increases in social skills from age 16 to 18. whereas an insecure-preoccupied attachment organization predicted increasing delinquency during this period. In addition, preoccupied teens interacting with highly autonomous mothers showed greater relative decreases in skill levels and increases in delinquent activity over time, suggesting a heightened risk for deviance among preoccupied teens who may be threatened by growing autonomy in adolescent-parent interactions.
