本研究提出了青春期中后期自主性的综合四因素模型。在两项独立研究中，部分重叠的青少年个性化和家庭功能量表相互关联。第一项研究的数据取自 9-12 年级高中生样本 (N = 601)，而第二项研究的数据则取自大学一年级学生样本 (N = 374)。两项研究中所有量表和派生子量表的验证性因素分析揭示了一个由 4 个不同但相关的因素组成的模型，即联系性、分离性、分离性和代理性，所有这些因素在不同的青少年自主理论中都占据着核心地位。关联性和分离性，以及较小程度上的关联性和分离性，彼此成反比关系。代理机构与其他 3 个因素之间的相关性要低得多。研究结果针对文献中存在的关于自治的不同观点以及“自治”一词进行了讨论，“自治”一词仅应用作总括术语。还概述了情绪自主量表概念基础的含义。
This study presents a comprehensive 4-factor model of autonomy in middle and late adolescence. Partially overlapping sets of scales on adolescent individuation and family functioning were correlated with each other in 2 independent studies. Data for the first study were taken from a sample of high school students in Grades 9-12 (N = 601), whereas the data for the second study were derived from a sample of 1st-year university students (N = 374). Confirmatory factor analysis on all of the scales and derivative subscales in both studies revealed a model that comprised 4 different but related factors, that is, Connectedness, Separation, Detachment, and Agency, all of which occupy a central place in different theories of adolescent autonomy. Connectedness and Detachment, and to a lesser extent Connectedness and Separation, were inversely related to one another. Correlations between Agency and the 3 other factors were much lower. Results are discussed with respect to the different views on autonomy that exist in the literature, and with respect to the term "autonomy," which should be used as an umbrella term only. Implications for the conceptual basis of the Emotional Autonomy Scale are also outlined.
