This document describes a study that examined different types of close friendships among Israeli 10th graders. The study identified three main types of close friendships based on how pairs of friends interacted during a problem-solving task: interdependent friendships, where friends respected each other's views while also being close; enmeshed friendships, where friends prioritized consensus over individual preferences to maintain closeness; and disengaged friendships, where each friend emphasized their individuality. The study also looked at how friendship conceptions varied across these types.

Adolescent Internalizing Symptoms and the “Tightknittedness” of
Friendship Groups
Sonja E. Siennick and Mayra Picon
Florida State University
Adolescents with depression have lower peer status overall, but tend to befriend each other. We examined the
“tightknittedness” of their friendship groups by testing whether adolescent friendship groups’ average levels of or vari-
ability in internalizing symptoms predict group cohesiveness. We used four waves (9th–12th grades) of survey and
social network data on 3,013 friendship groups from the PROmoting School-Community-University Partnerships to
Enhance Resilience study. Friendship groups with higher average depressive symptoms were less cohesive; groups
with higher average anxiety symptoms had greater reciprocity. Groups with greater variability in depressive symptoms
had greater density; variability in anxiety symptoms was not consistently associated with cohesion. The friendship
groups of depressed adolescents appear less cohesive than the “typical” adolescent friendship group.
When compared with their peers, adolescents with
more depressive symptoms have fewer friends,
have less stable friendships, and are more often
victimized and rejected by their peers (Chan &
Poulin, 2009; Kochel, Ladd, & Rudolph, 2012; Rose
et al., 2011; Stice, Ragan, & Randall, 2004). Yet
depressive symptoms also are a basis for friend-
ship formation, such that adolescents experiencing
these symptoms tend to be friends with each other
(Cheadle & Goosby, 2012; Hogue & Steinberg,
1995; Schaefer, Kornienko, & Fox, 2011). This
means that even if they have lower status in their
larger peer networks, many adolescents with
depressive symptoms do have friends, and those
friends often have depressive symptoms them-
selves. Thus many youth with depressive symp-
toms are likely embedded in friendship groups of
adolescents with similar symptoms. Yet we do not
know whether these friendship groups are as cohe-
sive as the groups formed by youth without
depressive symptoms, or whether they are
structurally weaker and thus not comparable sub-
stitutes, at least in terms of cohesion, for typical
friendship groups. Most studies of depressive
symptoms and peer networks have focused on
dyadic interactions or on individual adolescents’
status within entire social networks, rather than on
friendship groups.
This study examined whether friendship groups
comprised of adolescents with more depressive
symptoms are smaller and “looser,” or less tight-
knit, than groups characterized by fewer depres-
sive symptoms. It also examined whether groups
whose members vary more in their levels of
depressive symptoms are smaller and less tight-
knit. Finally, it distinguished between symptoms of
depression and symptoms of anxiety, which stud-
ies suggest may have opposite effects on friendship
cohesion (Rose et al., 2011). To our knowledge, this
is the first paper to describe the internal cohesive-
ness of friendship groups with members who have

This document summarizes two bodies of literature related to social skills in adolescents: studies on the relationship between peer interactions and peer acceptance, and research examining characteristics of same-sex teenage friendships. While limited by reliance on self-reports, the studies consistently identify positive behaviors like cooperation and helping others, and negative behaviors like aggression, associated with peer acceptance and rejection. The document argues social skills training could be improved by assessing and teaching skills around cooperation, loyalty, activity initiation, and intimacy in friendships, as well as explicitly addressing behaviors linked to peer rejection. Programs should also evaluate friendship formation and specific skill acquisition.
This document summarizes research on the relationship between college-aged youngest siblings and their older siblings. It reviewed literature showing that birth order impacts how siblings interact and the roles they take on. Research found that youngest siblings often feel closer to their mothers than other siblings and value support from their older siblings. The purpose of the study was to understand how these relationships change as siblings age by interviewing college students about their relationships with older siblings.
This document summarizes an academic paper titled "Argument as an Act of Friendship" presented at the OSSA Conference Archive in 1997. The paper argues that argument is commonly viewed negatively as a combative process focused on winning, but it can actually be a friendly act that promotes mutual understanding and growth when approached with care, trust, and openness between participants. The paper reviews characterizations of argument in common textbooks and outlines an alternative view of argument as a developmental process aligned with concepts of friendship, care for others, and an emergent self formed through social interaction.
An Exploratory Investigation Of Jealousy In The FamilyLuisa Polanco
This document summarizes a research study that explored jealousy within family relationships. The study found that over half of respondents reported experiencing a jealousy incident involving a family member, most commonly a sister. Respondents reported feeling hurt, upset, or angry in response. While discussion was a common coping strategy, increased independence was also reported. Jealousy incidents were associated with marginally lower relationship satisfaction. The study provides preliminary insights into the experience and expression of jealousy within families.

Attachment And Romantic Relationships The Role Of Working Models Of Self And...Joshua Gorinson
This document summarizes research on attachment theory and its role in romantic relationships. It begins by outlining Bowlby's attachment theory and how it provides a framework for understanding individual differences in romantic relationships. It describes how internal working models of self and other develop from early caregiving experiences and influence how people view themselves and navigate close relationships. The document then reviews research showing links between attachment orientations (anxiety, avoidance, security) and relationship functioning, such as satisfaction, commitment, caregiving. It argues that insecure working models undermine smooth relationships by coloring how people see themselves and others.
The document describes a study that aimed to 1) examine the relationships between peer pressure, conformity, and popularity and how they predict risk behaviors, and 2) develop and validate shorter measures of peer pressure and conformity for use in large-scale testing of adolescents. The study developed and validated short 10-item scales of peer pressure and conformity in a sample of 148 adolescent boys and girls. Results showed the new scales had good internal consistency. Peer pressure and conformity were found to be stronger predictors of risk behaviors like substance abuse than measures of popularity or general conformity. The new short scales of peer pressure and conformity were found to be equally or more predictive of risk behaviors than existing longer scales.
This document outlines a study on relationship rules between genders. It includes an abstract, introduction discussing relevant literature, aim to compare views of relationship importance between genders, hypothesis that females will be more truthful, methods using a questionnaire, procedure of administering the questionnaire, and sections for results, discussion, conclusion, and references. The introduction discusses factors like proximity, exposure, familiarity, similarity, attractiveness, and reciprocal liking in relationship formation. The aim is to see which gender finds relationships and their maintenance/repair more important. The hypothesis is that females will be more truthful and work harder at maintenance/repair.
The document discusses how family, peers, and education influence adolescent development. It notes that families provide foundational support, while peers become increasingly important as adolescents spend more time with friends. Education also shapes adolescents by impacting future opportunities and emotional well-being. Research discussed found that having friends aids school adjustment and motivation, and that peers influence prosocial behaviors. The quality of these relationships and experiences during adolescence can significantly impact development.

This document summarizes a study that investigated the relationships between self-awareness, the ability to take another's perspective, satisfaction with interpersonal relationships, and loneliness. 61 adults participated in the study. The study found that self-awareness was positively correlated with satisfaction in interpersonal relationships. It also found no significant differences between men and women in self-awareness or perspective-taking ability, but that women reported more positive relationships and less loneliness than men. The study aims to provide insight into how factors like self-awareness and perspective-taking relate to relationship satisfaction and loneliness.

1. Less autonomy and more relatedness in early adolescence would lead to later starting of romantic relationships and better quality romantic relationships, including more supportive and less negative romantic relationships during late adolescence.
2. Early adolescents with high levels of relatedness to parents and low to moderate levels of autonomy in family decision making would report later starting of romantic careers and more positive romantic relationships five years later than would other youth.
The study sample involved seventy-six middle-class adolescents (half female, half male) of the African American race of the final wave of the study. These adolescents were in various phases of their lives with some in their junior or senior year of high school, some in the process of enrolling in college, some already enrolled in college, some employed, and some in the military. It is important to note that nearly one hundred percent of these adolescents described themselves as being single. With the middle-class parents who were included, majority of them had some college instruction, over half grossed over seventy thousand dollars a year, and about half were in steady marriages for longer than the time the study was conducted.
This research was a qualitative method because it gave a thorough understanding of the research topic; it used the population’s point of view; and it focused on the opinions and behaviors of the population.
There were three waves. For the first wave, an interview was given. Wave three involved questionnaires five years after the first wave. No information was specified about wave two.
Data collected focused on autonomy and relatedness on different levels. Measures that were used during research included interviews and questionnaires/surveys. The type of data that was collected within the interview was the evaluation of autonomy and relatedness. There were numerous questionnaires/surveys given to the subjects.
Those that were used included a scale for family decision making for the autonomy aspect of research, the Trust and Communication subscales of the Parent-Peer Attachment Inventory, the Romantic History Survey, and the Network of Relationships Inventory.
The scale that was used for family decision making assessed just that. The Trust and Communication subscales of the Parent-Peer Attachment Inventory measured closeness and connection to parents. The Romantic History Survey determined romantic involvement. The Network of Relationships Inventory calculated positive social support and undesirable interactions.

University of Southern California
This study examines hypotheses of attitude transmission across three ideological domains
(gender roles, politics, religion) to access the adequacy of direct socialization, status
inheritance, and reciprocal influence models in a developmental aging perspective. Data
are from 2,044 individuals, members of three generation families, grouped to form
parent-youth (G2-G3) and grandparent-parent (GJ-G2) dyads. Results suggest, first, that
there is little convergence of parent-child attitudes with age when viewed cross-sectionally.
Second, status inheritance processes do account for a substantial amount of observed
parent-child similarity, but parental attitudes continue to significantly predict childrens'
orientations after childhood. Third, child influences on parental attitudes are relatively
strong and stable across age groups, while parental influence decreases with age, although
the exact pattern of influence varies by attitude domain.
For many years, social theorists have considered
the role of the family in maintaining continuity in
social ideologies over time (Engels [1884], 1967;

This study examined the development of emotion recognition abilities in individuals with autism compared to typically developing controls. In Experiment 1, children ages 5-7 were shown brief video clips of facial expressions varying in subtlety and were asked to identify the emotions. Children with autism performed worse than controls. Experiment 2 tested three age groups (8-12 years, 13-17 years, and adults) on the same stimuli. Whereas control performance improved with age, individuals with autism showed similar performance across age groups. The results suggest that individuals with autism have more difficulty recognizing subtle emotions compared to controls, and they do not show the same developmental improvement in this ability seen in typical individuals.

The question was:
Attachment, temperament, Erikson's stages, trait theory, the Big Five - the chapter covered a lot of theories about how personality develops throughout the lifespan. These include developmental stages as well as factors, both inherited and environmental, that contribute to how we interact with the world. Considering the information in the chapter, which ideas support the notion of a stable personality? Which give more emphasis to environmental factors (e.g., caregiving) and life events? How do you use this information to make sense of the nature of personality development?
Your answer was: (or mine)
Several arguments have been made trying to discuss the stability of an individual’s personal traits throughout his/her lifetime. Although the notion of stability lies on the definition of individual personality which focuses on the day to day habitual pattern of behaviors, way of thinking and the reactions of certain occurrences, stability does not concentrate on the unchanging instances. The behaviors of the adults tend to be more stable as compared to that of kids since the young generation are encountering several issues in the environ that in one way or the other changes their personality. Time interval, sex, ethnicity, education, and secular trends are some of the ideas that work in support of the notion of a stable personality.
Most personality attributes change in predictable ways through the lifespan. The big five personality traits are directly associated with individuals’ environmental values. Traits that are correlated with a positive outcome such as conscientiousness increases with age. Personality traits are attributes that are becoming more stable with age. This stability is well affected by the surrounding environment. Active person-environment transactions occur where individuals interact with different environments and experiences that are consistent with the characteristics of their personality. Individuals gain more autonomy to select their own environment as the transition from their childhood to adulthood.
The nature of personality development is continuously changing throughout the individual lifetime. For instance, considering the sex difference of people, boys are mostly tough-minded individuals and always work towards winning, whereas girls are quite and major their focus on the personal appearance that is why girls have a sense of art in their lifetime. therefore, implies that the differences among individuals play an important role in the development of personality.

Unit Three: Interpersonal Communication in Action
Eric L. Morgan and Greg G. Armfield
What Is Interpersonal Communication?
Communication between a customer and a salesperson, a doctor and a patient, a mother and a daughter, two partners who are in a fight, two partners who are in love, two friends talking on a park bench who join in conversation with a third friend who stops by and sits down, an e-mail from a soldier to his girlfriend. All these scenarios are examples of interpersonal communication. Scholar Brant Burleson (2010) defines
interpersonal communication
as “a complex, situated social process in which people who have established a communicative relationship exchange messages in an effort to generate shared meanings and accomplish social goals” (p. 151). Burleson (2010) further explains that people form a communicative relationship when “the recipient recognizes the source’s intention to convey an internal state, and the source recognizes the recipient’s intention to interpret” (p. 152).
Burleson’s definition of interpersonal communication has several implications. First, Burleson’s definition is different than traditional definitions in that it does not limit interpersonal communication to that which occurs in a face-to-face relationship or a dyadic context where only two people are present. For example, interpersonal communication still occurs over e-mail and phone, and even the presence of other people does not halt interpersonal communication. Second, interpersonal communication is not always effective. In other words, communicators do not always have shared understanding about the intentions and interpretations of messages. This is what makes the study of interpersonal communication so fascinating. Interpersonal scholars are often interested in studying relationships, not because the communication is so good and harmonious but rather to gain an understanding of a problematic issue in a relationship. To learn more about these problems, scholars can focus their study on certain communication episodes such as conflicts, support messages, influence attempts, or expressions of affection. Third, to be in a communicative relationship does not require that one is in a close, intimate relationship. Interpersonal communication can include the study of public, short-term relationships where the interactants do not know each other well (e.g., a grocery clerk and a customer). However, interpersonal scholars have devoted extraordinary time to studying how people communicate in close, intimate relationships given that such relationships impact our well-being so deeply.
The goal of this chapter is to explore interpersonal communication scholarship in just one type of relationship—the development and maintenance of romantic relationships. Anthropologists and evolutionary psychologists argue that humans have a fundamental need for social connection and are compelled to form romantic pair bonds (Fisher, 1992; Schmitt, 2008). Th.

8.1 Problem Solving with Adults
Standard 1 of NAEYC's Early Childhood Program Standards and Accreditation Criteria (2005a) states, "The program promotes positive relationships among all children and adults to encourage each child's sense of individual worth and belonging as part of a community and to foster each child's ability to contribute as a responsible community member" (p. 9). The rationale for the standard is that positive relationships and a positive, nurturing, sensitive climate are essential for the development of emotional regulation, constructive interactions, and overall learning in children (NAEYC, 2005a). Children develop a positive sense of self, and they are encouraged to respect and cooperate with others.
However, problems, conflicts, disagreements, and distrust can—and often do—develop. These can occur between the family and the program, between staff within the programs—staff to staff, directors and staff, staff and consultants—and between children in the program. When this occurs, caregivers need to engage in problem solving. While no family or early care and education program is ever totally without conflicts and issues to solve, the goal is, firstly, to create an environment where constructive problem solving can take place and, secondly, to be able to constructively solve problems.
Feelings
Conflicts, confusion, and disagreements can cause intense feelings among those involved. To address conflicts and disagreements, we must try to determine where these feelings come from. In the heat of the moment, this will probably not be possible, but once we have had time to reflect, we need to look at the feelings that disagreements and problems produce.
We all have feelings, and it is very important to accept and appreciate these feelings. We need to reflect on our feelings and on why certain things make us feel a certain way. Feelings are complex, subjective experiences that involve physical and mental aspects of self—they can be felt, expressed, acted on, and thought about (Greenspan & Greenspan, 1985). All feelings have value and are useful—even ones we view as negative. Feelings are how we react to experiences, and they help us organize and make sense of our world. The great works of art, music, drama, and dance are based on feelings—some pleasant, and some dark and tragic.
We learn about feelings from our childhood experiences. When children are young, adults label the child's emotions: "That bang scared you!" "The dog's bark upset you!" Part of this socialization process is to help children know how to respond to the environment—for safety, to develop appropriate reactions to the environment, and to teach children culturally appropriate responses to their feelings. Other feelings, such as those of love, trust, fear, excitement, and surprise, are natural responses to the environment that help us feel good about ourselves and the social environment (Rogers, 1980).
Another way we learn about feelings is through social r.
Attachment Theory in Human DevelopmentLacey Desper
Attachment theory proposes that the relationship with primary caregivers in early childhood shapes adult relationships. Two studies examined this. Zayas et al. found that greater maternal sensitivity at 18 months predicted lower avoidance in adult relationships, while greater maternal control predicted greater avoidance. Collins conducted three studies showing adult attachment styles predict relationship quality and partner choice. While differing in methods, both provide empirical support linking early caregiving to adult social behaviors, supporting attachment theory's role in human development.

This document provides information on making a family genogram including defining what a genogram is, its importance, and how to create one. A genogram is a graphic representation of a family tree that displays relationships and tracks attributes through generations. It was developed in clinical settings to describe physical, social, and emotional connections between family members. The document reviews basic genogram symbols and provides steps for constructing a genogram including gathering family information and documenting relationships.
This document summarizes research on the effects of over-involved parenting on teenagers. It finds that most teenagers feel that over-involved parenting hinders their autonomy. Teenagers desire more independence and space to make their own decisions. However, some research also finds benefits to positive parental involvement like high expectations and open communication. Authoritative parenting, which enforces rules but is also nurturing and democratic, may be most effective. Cultural differences also impact parenting styles. Overall parenting, while providing support and guidance, should avoid being overprotective and allow teenagers opportunities to develop independence and self-confidence through their own experiences.

Attachment And Romantic Relationships The Role Of Working Models Of Self And...Joshua Gorinson
This document summarizes research on attachment theory and its role in romantic relationships. It begins by outlining Bowlby's attachment theory and how it provides a framework for understanding individual differences in romantic relationships. It describes how internal working models of self and other develop from early caregiving experiences and influence how people view themselves and navigate close relationships. The document then reviews research showing links between attachment orientations (anxiety, avoidance, security) and relationship functioning, such as satisfaction, commitment, caregiving. It argues that insecure working models undermine smooth relationships by coloring how people see themselves and others.
The document describes a study that aimed to 1) examine the relationships between peer pressure, conformity, and popularity and how they predict risk behaviors, and 2) develop and validate shorter measures of peer pressure and conformity for use in large-scale testing of adolescents. The study developed and validated short 10-item scales of peer pressure and conformity in a sample of 148 adolescent boys and girls. Results showed the new scales had good internal consistency. Peer pressure and conformity were found to be stronger predictors of risk behaviors like substance abuse than measures of popularity or general conformity. The new short scales of peer pressure and conformity were found to be equally or more predictive of risk behaviors than existing longer scales.
This document outlines a study on relationship rules between genders. It includes an abstract, introduction discussing relevant literature, aim to compare views of relationship importance between genders, hypothesis that females will be more truthful, methods using a questionnaire, procedure of administering the questionnaire, and sections for results, discussion, conclusion, and references. The introduction discusses factors like proximity, exposure, familiarity, similarity, attractiveness, and reciprocal liking in relationship formation. The aim is to see which gender finds relationships and their maintenance/repair more important. The hypothesis is that females will be more truthful and work harder at maintenance/repair.
The document discusses how family, peers, and education influence adolescent development. It notes that families provide foundational support, while peers become increasingly important as adolescents spend more time with friends. Education also shapes adolescents by impacting future opportunities and emotional well-being. Research discussed found that having friends aids school adjustment and motivation, and that peers influence prosocial behaviors. The quality of these relationships and experiences during adolescence can significantly impact development.

This document summarizes a study that investigated the relationships between self-awareness, the ability to take another's perspective, satisfaction with interpersonal relationships, and loneliness. 61 adults participated in the study. The study found that self-awareness was positively correlated with satisfaction in interpersonal relationships. It also found no significant differences between men and women in self-awareness or perspective-taking ability, but that women reported more positive relationships and less loneliness than men. The study aims to provide insight into how factors like self-awareness and perspective-taking relate to relationship satisfaction and loneliness.

1. Less autonomy and more relatedness in early adolescence would lead to later starting of romantic relationships and better quality romantic relationships, including more supportive and less negative romantic relationships during late adolescence.
2. Early adolescents with high levels of relatedness to parents and low to moderate levels of autonomy in family decision making would report later starting of romantic careers and more positive romantic relationships five years later than would other youth.
The study sample involved seventy-six middle-class adolescents (half female, half male) of the African American race of the final wave of the study. These adolescents were in various phases of their lives with some in their junior or senior year of high school, some in the process of enrolling in college, some already enrolled in college, some employed, and some in the military. It is important to note that nearly one hundred percent of these adolescents described themselves as being single. With the middle-class parents who were included, majority of them had some college instruction, over half grossed over seventy thousand dollars a year, and about half were in steady marriages for longer than the time the study was conducted.
This research was a qualitative method because it gave a thorough understanding of the research topic; it used the population’s point of view; and it focused on the opinions and behaviors of the population.
There were three waves. For the first wave, an interview was given. Wave three involved questionnaires five years after the first wave. No information was specified about wave two.
Data collected focused on autonomy and relatedness on different levels. Measures that were used during research included interviews and questionnaires/surveys. The type of data that was collected within the interview was the evaluation of autonomy and relatedness. There were numerous questionnaires/surveys given to the subjects.
Those that were used included a scale for family decision making for the autonomy aspect of research, the Trust and Communication subscales of the Parent-Peer Attachment Inventory, the Romantic History Survey, and the Network of Relationships Inventory.
The scale that was used for family decision making assessed just that. The Trust and Communication subscales of the Parent-Peer Attachment Inventory measured closeness and connection to parents. The Romantic History Survey determined romantic involvement. The Network of Relationships Inventory calculated positive social support and undesirable interactions.

ATTITUDE SIMILARITY IN THREE-GENERATION FAMILIES:
SOCIALIZATION, STATUS INHERITANCE,
OR RECIPROCAL INFLUENCE?*
JENNIFER GLASS VERN L. BENGTSON
University of Notre Dame CHARLOTTE CHORN DUNHAM
University of Southern California
This study examines hypotheses of attitude transmission across three ideological domains
(gender roles, politics, religion) to access the adequacy of direct socialization, status
inheritance, and reciprocal influence models in a developmental aging perspective. Data
are from 2,044 individuals, members of three generation families, grouped to form
parent-youth (G2-G3) and grandparent-parent (GJ-G2) dyads. Results suggest, first, that
there is little convergence of parent-child attitudes with age when viewed cross-sectionally.
Second, status inheritance processes do account for a substantial amount of observed
parent-child similarity, but parental attitudes continue to significantly predict childrens'
orientations after childhood. Third, child influences on parental attitudes are relatively
strong and stable across age groups, while parental influence decreases with age, although
the exact pattern of influence varies by attitude domain.
For many years, social theorists have considered
the role of the family in maintaining continuity in
social ideologies over time (Engels [1884], 1967;

This study examined the development of emotion recognition abilities in individuals with autism compared to typically developing controls. In Experiment 1, children ages 5-7 were shown brief video clips of facial expressions varying in subtlety and were asked to identify the emotions. Children with autism performed worse than controls. Experiment 2 tested three age groups (8-12 years, 13-17 years, and adults) on the same stimuli. Whereas control performance improved with age, individuals with autism showed similar performance across age groups. The results suggest that individuals with autism have more difficulty recognizing subtle emotions compared to controls, and they do not show the same developmental improvement in this ability seen in typical individuals.

The question was:
Attachment, temperament, Erikson's stages, trait theory, the Big Five - the chapter covered a lot of theories about how personality develops throughout the lifespan. These include developmental stages as well as factors, both inherited and environmental, that contribute to how we interact with the world. Considering the information in the chapter, which ideas support the notion of a stable personality? Which give more emphasis to environmental factors (e.g., caregiving) and life events? How do you use this information to make sense of the nature of personality development?
Your answer was: (or mine)
Several arguments have been made trying to discuss the stability of an individual’s personal traits throughout his/her lifetime. Although the notion of stability lies on the definition of individual personality which focuses on the day to day habitual pattern of behaviors, way of thinking and the reactions of certain occurrences, stability does not concentrate on the unchanging instances. The behaviors of the adults tend to be more stable as compared to that of kids since the young generation are encountering several issues in the environ that in one way or the other changes their personality. Time interval, sex, ethnicity, education, and secular trends are some of the ideas that work in support of the notion of a stable personality.
Most personality attributes change in predictable ways through the lifespan. The big five personality traits are directly associated with individuals’ environmental values. Traits that are correlated with a positive outcome such as conscientiousness increases with age. Personality traits are attributes that are becoming more stable with age. This stability is well affected by the surrounding environment. Active person-environment transactions occur where individuals interact with different environments and experiences that are consistent with the characteristics of their personality. Individuals gain more autonomy to select their own environment as the transition from their childhood to adulthood.
The nature of personality development is continuously changing throughout the individual lifetime. For instance, considering the sex difference of people, boys are mostly tough-minded individuals and always work towards winning, whereas girls are quite and major their focus on the personal appearance that is why girls have a sense of art in their lifetime. therefore, implies that the differences among individuals play an important role in the development of personality.

What Is Interpersonal Communication?
Communication between a customer and a salesperson, a doctor and a patient, a mother and a daughter, two partners who are in a fight, two partners who are in love, two friends talking on a park bench who join in conversation with a third friend who stops by and sits down, an e-mail from a soldier to his girlfriend.

However, problems, conflicts, disagreements, and distrust can—and often do—develop. These can occur between the family and the program, between staff within the programs—staff to staff, directors and staff, staff and consultants—and between children in the program. When this occurs, caregivers need to engage in problem solving.

The document reviews basic genogram symbols and provides steps for constructing a genogram including gathering family information and documenting relationships.
This document summarizes research on the effects of over-involved parenting on teenagers. It finds that most teenagers feel that over-involved parenting hinders their autonomy. Teenagers desire more independence and space to make their own decisions. However, some research also finds benefits to positive parental involvement like high expectations and open communication. Authoritative parenting, which enforces rules but is also nurturing and democratic, may be most effective. Cultural differences also impact parenting styles. Overall parenting, while providing support and guidance, should avoid being overprotective and allow teenagers opportunities to develop independence and self-confidence through their own experiences.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

ABSTRACT
Friendships between individuals can be found
throughout lifespans. This study examined an interaction between
adolescents who consider themselves close friends. Inspection of
friends' interaction when working on a joint task may allow the
classification of close friendships in adolescence. In addition
friends were asked about their jojr.t daily activities to allow the
detection of possible characteristics of interaction across
friendship types. The study also examined adolescents' conceptions of
friendship across various possible types of friendship. Subjects
(N=90) included 23 pairs of female and 22 pairs of male Israeli 10th
graders who identified themselves as friends. Analysis revealed three
main patterns of adolescents' close friendships: interdependent,
enmeshed, and disengaged. The three types reflect different qualities
of relationships at the dyadic level which transcend the behavior of
individuals. In the interdependent type friends were close to each
another and they also respected each other's personal views and
preferences. In the enmeshed type friends were very close to each
another, it was very important to them to act in consensus, and they
suppressed individual preferences for a greater sense of closeness
and unity. In the disengaged type each partner emphasized
individuality and separateness while working on a joint task.

3. Adolescents' Close Riendship Types
and Friendship Reasoning
Friendships between individuals can be found throughout the life span. For
young children, friendship provides a partner or a playmate with whom time
is spent and interesting activities can be pursued (Ginsberg, Gottman &
Parker, 1986; Howes, 1981). With age, though common activities continue
to reflect an important aspect of friendship; friends are also willing to help
each other (Wright, 1984). Willingness to help between friends reflects the
closeness of their relationship (Berndt, 1986). The willingness to help is
related, according to Youniss (1980), to the individual's recognition that
peers are different and each may need the other's help on some occasion.
Through the experience of reciprocated help, friends move into mutual
understanding. Friends get better acquainted with each others'
preferences, opinions and wishes. They learn to solve problems together
and to compromise differences. Intimaty is the logical outcome of these
developmental steps (Youniss, 1980). Friends allow themselves to be fully
open to each other, to disclose personal secrets, and to exchange ideas
within a secure and accepting environment. Studies indicated that
adolescents emphasize self disclosure, openness and affection as crucial
components of their friendships (Betridt, 1986; Bigelow, 1977; Furman &
Bierman, 1983; Hunder and Youniss, 1982), Intimate and affective feelings
are the hallmark of friendship am _stinguish between "common" friends
and "close" friends (Oden, Flerzberger, Nangoine & Wheeler, 1984). It is
3
4. particularly during the earlier years of adolescence that the need for
intimacy with a friend emerges (Sullivan (1953) and not until this age are
peers perceived as more important companions than parents (Bummester
& Furman, 1987).
A question may be raised as to whether a "close" friendship consists of one
clear facet, a relationship where partners report on their intimacy and
closeness; or whether there are different types of "close" relationships.
Selman (1980) presents a developmental model of friendship. According to
Selman two sequential stages of adolescent friendship can be characterized.
At the initial stage friendship is characterized by mutual support and
understanding where an intimate relationship is maintained. At the latter
stage friends are able to balance between the sense of intimacy, closeness to
each other and respect for the other's individuality. Following Selman's
contention, two types of close friendship during adolescence may be
hypothesized. In the first type of relationship, a high level of support and
mutual understanding between friends is the focus. In the higher type,
intimacy and support between friends is combined with respect for the
other's individuality.. Friendship has been studied by investigating children's
and adolescents' general beliefs about friendship (Bigelow, 1977; Furman &
Bierman, 1983; Hunter & Youniss, 1982; Keller & Wood, 1989; Selman,
1980) or in their descriptions of their actual friendships ',Berndt, 1986;
Burmester & Furman, 1987; Sharabany, Gershoni & Hoffman, 1981).
However, a relationship is defined as a series of interactions between two
people occurring over time (Hinde, 1979). In friendship studies even when
interaction between friends was measured, often the object of observation
was the behavior of one or both friends in the relationship.
4
5. Relationship on the dyadic or group level has been extensively studied in the
field of family systems. Family theorists have emphasized two main
dimensions operating in the family system: fhe emotional relatedness
between family members and individual striving for development and
independence (Minuchin, 1974; Wynne, 1958). Reiss (1981) formulated a
theory on the varieties of family consensual experience, namely the nature of
their closeness. On the basis of research, Reiss formulated the main
dimensions that characterize family interaction during a joint problem
solving task. The first dimension is configuration (problem solving
effectiveness), the contribution of the family in enhancing problem solving
when the entire family works as a group. The second dimension is
coordination referring to the will, determination and capacity of family
members to solve problems in a similar manner. Using these dimensions,
Reiss suggested a family typology consisting of three main paradigms:
a Environment-se Live paradigm. When a problem is presented to the
family, each member is aware of the need to use and explore all the
possible stimuli and information in order to solve the problem. They
also make full use of each other as belonging to a group to achieve the
best solution. They react to one another objectively and are free to
accept or reject solutiOns of others. 'The solution is not immediate,
but the end of a long process of evaluating all the available information.
There is no pressure to accept a particular solution of any member.
The information which each member presents is an aid in clarifying
the problem and they attempt to reach the optimal solution. The final
5
6. solution is a balance of individual perceptions and the contribution of
all of the family members in order to achieve the optimal solution.
b. Consensus-sensitive paradigm. In families of this type it is most
important for the family to be cohesive and in full agYeement with one
another. Every member is sensitive to the opinions of the other and
does not express ideas that may clash with or hurt another member.
In this manner the family strives to reach a quick solution to the
problem without disagreements. The best solution is of secondary
importance; what is most important for them is to remain united and
work cooperatively. The over-emphasis on cohesion prevents them
from examining all the facts and presses for a united solution, even if
it is not the most effective.
c. Distance-sensitive paradigm. Problem solving in this type of family is
perceived as a way for each member to express his/her independence
of the others. The acceptance of any other opinion is evidence of
weakness. Each member relates to the problem without using any
information provided by other family membei 3. Some members work
quickly and impulsively, while others methodically examine all the
data. In these families the optimal solution takes a secondary place.
What is most important for them is that each demonstrate control and
independence from the cthers.
Reiss' family typology is not conceptually different from other family
typologies (Olson, Sprenkle & Russel, 1979). The merit of Reiss' approach
is that it is experimentally based compared to others which are rather based
on clinical experience with families.
6
7. Application of these family paradigms would suggest the following possible
types of adolescent close friendships. The first type would be a relationship
where friends are close to one another: intimacy and self disclosure mark
this relationship. However, closeness is not achieved at the expense of each
partner's independence. This type recalls the highest level of friendship
according to Selman's (1980) theory and parallels Reiss' Environment
Sen.sitive paradigm. The second type would be a friendship where intimacy
and closeness between partners is over-emphasized. This may recall
Selman's Level 3 friendship and parallels Reiss' Consensus Sensitive
paradigm. The third possible type would be a friendship where partners
over-emphasize their individuality reflecting Reiss' Distance Sensitive
paradigm. Although it does not seem logical to assume the existence of a
"close" friendship where partners prefer separateness. However, since such
a disengaged type of relationship is found in families, it may be reasonable to
look for it among adolescents' friendships as well.
The present paper has two objectives:
First, this study aims to exaniine an interaction between adolescents who
consider themselves close friends. Inspection of friends' interaction when
working on a joint task may allow the classification of close friendships in
adolescence. In addition, friends will be asked about their joint daily
activities to allow the detection of different possible characteristics of
interaction across friendship types. The second objective of the study is to
examine adolescents' conceptions of friendship across various possible types
of friendship. Selman (1980) suggested a hierarchial sequence of friendship
reasoning. In addition, levels of friendship reasoning are assessed across
8. various aspects representing unique features of the friendship concept.
These aspects relate to the following issues: motivation for having a close
friehd, the meaning of trust and jealousy between friends as well as of
conflict resolution, and the termination of friendship. Selman has shown
friendship reasoning to develop with age (Gurruchari & Selman, 1982;
Selman, 1980). Thus, the second question in this study tests whether salr.::
age adolescents, representing different types of close friendship, will show
different levels of friendship reasoning in general, and in the various aspects
of their concept of friendship.
Method
Sub ects
Tenth graders (15-year-olds) from a senior high school in a northern suburb
of Tel-Aviv, representing students from the lower middle class to the upper
middle class spectrum, were included in the study. Home room teachers
were asked to identify pairs of same sex close friends in their classes.
Subsequently, popular and active students were also asked to identify pairs
of lose friends. Finally, identified subjects were individually interviewe
about their having a close friend. Pairs of reciprocated close friendships
were included in the study. Following this procedure, 45 pairs of close
friends (23 pairs of girls and 22 pairs of boys) were included in the study.
Procedures InstrumentF. and Scorng
Pa1rs of close friends were jointly given the Reiss Card Procedure and were
individually interviewed concerning their joint activities. The Selman
9. (1980) F'riendship Interview was also individually administered. In half of
the cases the joint problem solving task was administered before individuals
were interviewed. In the other half the procedure was reversed.
The Reiss Card-Sort, Problem Solving Procedure. The problem-solving
procedure which is reported in detail by Reiss (1981) was given to both
friends. This procedure consists of a set of cards that show a row of letters
of varying order and length. Subjects are told to sort the cards in any way
they wish and in as many piles as they choose, up to seven. Cards can be
sorted according to a pattern system or according to a variant of a length
system. The task is divided into two phases. First, friends sort the cards
individually without speaking to each other. Second, friends are permitted
to talk to and to consult with one another while sorting the cards, but are
not instructed whether or not they are to reach agreement. They sort two
cards at a time and the tester permits them to go on to the next two cards
after both are finished. The possible patterns for each of the two phases are
similar in form, but not identical.
The dimensions postulated by Reiss to characterize family interaction are
represented by four measures of family behavior, produced by objective
recording during the procedure. The configuration dimension is
represented by two measures which indicate the pair's effectiveness in
solving the card-sort problem: in the individual sort and the joint sort (INIT
COMPLEXITY) (JNT COMPLEXITY). The inter-friend sort similarity measure
(SORT SIM) and the standard deviation of members' trial ending times
(TIME SD) constitute the coordination dimension. ( A low TIME SD reflects
friends' tendency to finish each trial together). This procedure has been
10. used in the past with families, groups and parents, and made it possible to
identify clearly types of families.
Daily Activities Interview. Individuals were asked to describe their common
activities with their close friends. They were asked about type, frequency
and location of their meetings and activities. Also, they were asked to
describe how often they meet in dyads, with the close friend, or in a group.
Their closeness was verified by questions like whether they sleep at each
other's homes, swap clothing or touch each other in playful activities.
Friendship Conceptions Interview: Subjects were given Selman's (1980)
hypothetical friendship dilemma. The written dilemma was presented and
subjects were instructed end encouraged to write down their opinions in
detail. The issues explored were (1) Motivation: "Friendship is important to
me because..." (2) Trust: 'Trust between friends means ..." (3) Jealousy: "If
Dan will be jealous of Gad because of his interaction with Eitan it will cause
their friendship to ..." (4) Conflict: "Sometimes conflicts occur between
friends because ..." and (5) Termination of Friendship: "A close friendship
term-inates when...". Adolescents' answers were scored by two raters
according to a scoring manual by Selman and Jaquette (1977).
Stability of Friendship. Three months a ter this interview, subjects were
contacted by phone and were asked about the identity of their best friend in
order find out about friendships that had terminated.

Results
Pairs' performance or( the Reiss Card Sort Procedure was computed.
According to criteria suggested by Reiss (1981) pairs were classified and
three friendship types emerged, Twenty six of the 45 pairs revealed a high
level of configuration and coordination. This resembles Reiss' environment
sensitive family type and was termed Interdependent Friendship. Ten pairs
were low on configuration and high on coordination, resembling Reiss'
consensus sensitive type. This type was termed Enmeshed Friendship. The
last 9 pairs were low on configuration and low on coordination. These pairs
resemble Reiss' distance sensitive family and were termed Disengaged
Friendship.. Means and standard deviations on the four card sort measures
across friendship types are shown in Table 1.
Insert Table 1 about here
Pairs of boys and girls were almost equally distributed across friendship
types.
Daily Activities across Friendship Types:
Interviews revealed similar activities to characterize friends' behavior across
friendship types. Friends meet 2-3 times per week after school. They
speak on the phone at least once a day. They meet either at one of the
11
12. 10
friends' home or somewhere outside home. They go together to the beach,
to a movie, or to parties. Friends also study together. It is not very common
to sleep over at a friend's home but it is quite common to ex.thange
educational material, items of clothing or records. However, when asked
whether the two friends go out by themselves or in a large group, a clear
distinction among friends from the three friendship types emerged. As can
be seen in Table 2, pairs of the Interdependent Type go out in dyads as well
Insert Table 2 about here
as in groups. Adolescents in 1_'Aimeshed pairs show a higher tendency to go
out in groups whereas adolescents of Disengaged pairs show a higher
tendency for going out as a dyad. No play-fight behavior was found among
girls. However, boys of both the Enmeshed and Disengaged types reported a
low incidence of rough and tumble play. When reporting they tended to add
that their fights were not serious. Boys .of the Interdependent type openly
reported on rough and tumble play.
Adolescents' written answers on the Selman Friendship Reasoning interview
was analyzed by uvo raters. Due to the nature of the written arswers it was
not possible to rate adolescents' level on the different friendship issues
according to Selman's scoring system. Therefore, the analysis was
12
13. 11
conducted In two modes. First, each adolescent's comprehensive written
answert were rated according to Selman's scoring system. Reliability
'between two raters was .87. Adolescents' level of friendship reasoning of
'e Interdependent type was 2.53. The friendship level of the Enmeshed
type was 2.40 and of the Disengaged type 2.22, F (2.87) = 2.69, p = .07. As
can be seen, adolescents of the Interdependent type reveal the highest level
of friendship reasoning while adolescents of the Disengaged type reveal the
lowest. Adolescents of the Enmeshed type are mid-range on their level of
friendship reasoning. The difference between the two extremes of the
Interdependent and the Disengaged is significant (t = 2.43 p<.05). The
second mode of analysis was conducted following Youniss' (1980, p. 192)
method. Adolescents' reasoning responses on the five friendship issues
Were content-analyzed and distribution of the various categories across the
three friendship types was tallied. As can be seen in four out of five
friendship issues, adolescents of different friendship types exhibit different
reasons for friendship. Disengaged adolescents' motivation for a close friend-
Insert Table 3 about here
ship is mainly aimed at preventing loneliness and having an intimate
relationship, they do not emphasize mutual help. As Table 3 shows,
adolescents of the Enmeshed type raise ail four reasons for having a friend.
Reasons of adolescents of the Interdependent type for having a close friend
are: joint activities, help/support and intimacy. These adolescents do not
show the tendency to look for a friend out of the fear of loneliness.
I 13
14. 12
Trtr- was similarly perceived by adolescents across friendship types.
Adolescents mainly describe "trust" as mutual support and sharing of
secrets. Jealousy was generally perceived to effect either separation
between close friends, or change/development of the friendship.
Adolescents of the Disengaged type tend to perceti.ie Jealousy as a reason for
separation. Adolescents of the Interdependent type show a tendency to
perceive Jealousy as a reason for re-evaluation of the relationship with a
chance for change or development. Differing opinions are a reason for a
fight between Disengaged friends. Interdependent friends accept differing
opinions and only when an 1,,sue of trust is questioned a fight between
friends may occur.
Three reasons for termination of a friendship were raised by adolescents
across friendship types: a fight between friends, mistrust, or when persons
start to change, for instance when a third person (a boy/girl friend) enters.
Disengaged adolescents tend to perceive a fight as the main reason for
termination of friendship and hardly mention change or development as a
cause in the end of a relationship. Enmeshed adolescents hardly mention
fights, according to their perception mistrust may be the main reason for
termination of a friendship. Interdependent adolescents explicitly raise the
three various reasons for termination of a friendship but they emphasize
change/development more than expected.
Thus, it can be summarized that adolescents of the various types of close
friendship raise different reasons for the motivation for having a friend,
differently describe dynamics of friendship processes, and emphasize
different reasons for termination of a.friendship.

Stability of Friendship Types:
Three montl_s following their first interview and testing, adolescents were
reached by telephone. Adolescents were asked to report on the state of
their friendship. As can be seen in Table 4, the majority of friendships (75
c

percent) are sta'ole over a period of three months. However, Enmeshed
pairs show a significant tendency (45 percent) to resolve their friendship.
Interdependent pairs on the other hand show a greater than expected
tendency (85 percent) to have a stable relationship.
Discussion
,In this study thne main patterns of adolescents' close friendships were
found: Interdependent, Enmeshed and Disengaged. The three types reflect
different qualities of relationships at the dyadic level which transcend the
behavior of individuals. In the Interdependent type, friends are close to one
another and they also respect each other's 'personal views and preferences.
As shown in their friendship reasoning, Interdependent adolescents are
capable of solving misunderstandings and conflicts in such a way that their
friendship is re-evaluated and in the long run, individual opinions contribute
to the quality of the friendship and strengthens it. In the Enmeshed type,
15
16. 14
frieilds are very close to one another. It is vety important for them to act in
c
consensus and they suppress individual preferences for a greater sense of
closeness and unity. In the Disengaged pair, each partner emphasizes
his/her own individuality and separateness from the other while working on
ajo;int task. These adolescents probably cannot tolerate differing opinions.
DisI agreement may cause a fight between the two Disengaged friends (as
exptessed in their friendship reasoning) which in turn may lead to
terthination of the friendship.
The three types of friendship correspond to the well known patterns found
among families by researchers and clinicians (Constantine, 1987; Minuchin,
1974; Olson, Sprenkle and Russel, 1970; Reiss, 1981; Wynne, 1958): The
Environment Sensitive (Reiss) - Clear Boundaries (Minuchin); the Consensus
Sensitive (Reiss) - Enmeshed (Minuchin), and the Distance Sensitive (Reiss)
gisengaged (Minuchin) family types. Inspection of friendship reasoning
miy further highlight the dynamics of friendship in adolescence and across
typ`es. As can be seen (Table 3) adolescents across types emphasize intimacy
as a reason for having a close friend. The- need for intimacy probably reflects
the transition to adolescence in -general. (Berndt, 1985; Bukowski,
Newcomb & Hoza, 1987; Sullivan, 1953). It is the dilemma of how to
coordinate between intimacy, daily activities and supporting and helping one
another that differentiates between friendship types. Interdependent
friends are not afraid that rough and tumble play between themselves will
escalate into a fight. Also, they are corrfortable going out within a larger
grpup of friends and probably do not think that being in a larger g oup may
r....reate distance between the two close friends. Thus, Interdependent
friends know how to integrate intimacy with ongoing activities.
16
17. 15
Enmeshed friends also try to integrate the various activities with their
growing need for intimacy. Their tendency for closeness fits with the
dev6lopmental trend since adolescents display a strong preference for
equality over competition with friends (Berndt, 1985). In order to
strengthen their friendship, they try to refrain from conflicts and they do
not consider a fight - a conflict - as a possible cause for resolution of a
friendship: From their perspective a sense of mistrust or jealousy is rather
considered as a strain on their closeness that may terminate friendship.
Disengaged adolescents look for a close friend in order to assuage each
others' loneliness and fulfil the need for intimacy. However, they probably
have a great fear of losing the close friend. Therefore, these adolescents
employ different strategies to avoid any stress on the relationship. They
prefer to go out in a dyad and not in a larger group, so that the sense of
friendship is optionally and continuously maintained. However, they keep a
eertain distance to avoid differing Opinions and conflicts which according to
their reasoning may lead to termination of the friendship. Disengaged
friends paradoxically prefer being "distant" in order to preserve their
friendship-closeness.
Conceptually, the types of close friendships found in this study recall some
of Karpel's (1976) modes of relationships. The Interdependent type of
friendship is similar to Karpel's Dialogue which represents the mature stage
of a relationship. In this type of relationship the poles of "I" and "We" are
integrated in such a way that they nourish and foster one another.
Individuation (the differentiated "I") and dialogue (the differentiated "We")
_
18. 16
are complementary parts of the overall process of both partners'
simultaneous self-delineation in the relationship. The more highly indiv7
iduated the partners, the better prepared they ate for a dialogic relation-
ship !Karpel, 1976; p. 77,78). The Enmeshed and Disengaged types may
represent a transitional relational mode. In the Enmeshed type the search
is for a "soul mate", and partners move toward one another until a degree of
fusion is reached. However, as Karpel suggests, fusion is threatening to both
partners which in turn may lead to separation. It may be recalled that the
Enmeshed type was the least stable of the three types of friendships. Forty
five percent of those pairs of friends were resolved during a following 3
month period. In the Disengaged type partners "maintain contact without
fusion by establishing a pattern in which one partner keeps up a facade of
distance, while the other pursues" (p. 74). This type of interaction, as
described by Karpel, was clearly observed when Disengaged adolescents
worked on the joint task. Usually one partner tied to initiate a consultation
with his/her friend while the other insisted on working separately.
Developmentally, the Interdependent type of friendship reflects the highest
level (Level 4) of friendship conception (Selman, 1980) as individuals
understand that they rely on each other for support and for intimacy.
Nonetheless, they retain their individuality within the friendship.
Enmeshed friendships cons!st of mutual suPport and understanding which
also represents a high level of friendship reasoning (Level 3), however the
over emphasis on intimacy may lead to a possessive relationship which in
turn may interfere with individuation which is an important task in
adolescence (I3los 1969/1979). The adolescent trades off dependency upon
a parent against dependency upon a friend. Disengaged adolescents are able
18
19. i
17
to understand the meaning of cooperation, trust and intimacy.
Nevertheless, the emergence of differing views and conflicts are considered
)
as terminating the friendship (Level 2). For this reason, these adolescents
establish patterns of interaction with a low chance of conflict. Partners are
distant though they have a sense of closeness.
Adolescents in this study were similar in age and in social background, to
that individual differences in friendship reasoning cannot be attributed to
these variables (Pellegrini 1986; Selman, 1980). We should like to consider
another possible source for individual differences in friendship type
membership and level of friendship reasoning.
The friendship paradigms found in this study recall the attachment typology
(Ainsworth, Blehar, Waters & Wall, 1978), where the securely attached
infants (B-type) are able to balance between their proximity and contact to
the mother, and their exploration of the novel environment. Closeness and
individual interest are integrated. In the infants showing resistant
attachment (C-type) the wish for proximity e)dsts but the infant is not sure
how close he/she may approach the mother. Infants showing an avoidant
atachment (A-type) have probably learned that the most adaptive mode of
maintOning a relationship with the mother is being apart.

In a study by Shulman, Elicker and Sroufe (1989), close friendships
develgped by pre-adolescents with different attachment histories were
fo11ow0 for a period of 4 weeks during a summer camp. In-depth case
studies revealed that partners with a history of secure attachment to their
initial caregiver developed highly interdependent relationships with
t
19
20. 18
friends. In their relationships, they were able to establish a balance between
competent mastery of the environment, and closeness and intimacy to the
other. In the case ef a pair with a history of resistant attachment, partners
developed what may be termed a "sporadic friendship" (Howes, 1973). Two
boys revealed a real concern for one another, however this closeness was not
sustained. Their friendship would "fade away" without reason and would
later resume as if no break had occurred. Pre-dolescents with avoidant
attachment history were socially incompetent. Nonetheless, one pair of
girls with A-type attachment history developed a very close friendship,
without any ability to explore the relationship which was almost a "pure
fusion" (Karpel, 1986). Thus, It may be assumed that the basic pattern of
the early relasionship with the initial caregiver (mother) is carried over into
an intimate relationship with a peer in adolescence (Sroufe & Fleeson,
1986).
Suggestions offered in the Shulman, Elicker and Sroufe (1989) study are
mostly based on in-depth case studies. Park and Waters (1989) observed
pairs of pre-school children and their best friends. Attachment history of
the pre-schoolers was evaluated by interviewing their mothers. Park and
Waters found mostly two possible kinds of association of friends when their
attachment history was evaluated: secure-secure pairs and secure-insecure
pairs. The secure-secure pairs did not engage in less conflict compared to
the .secure-insecure pairs but used more 'strategies that reflected fair
settlement and negotiation. Hence again, it is demonstrated that a secure
attachment history is positively related to the ability to establish an
optionally negotiable friendship: a relationship in which the need of the
other is respected. Elicker (1989) reported that children with secure
20
21. 19
attachment and resistant attachment histories showed higher levels of
interpersonal sensitivity than those with avoidant attachment histories.
Types of friendship were found to relate to different friendship reasoning.
Primarily it may be suggested that heterogeneity in reasoning about
friendship (Pelligrini 1986) is related to the establishment of a different
type of close friendship. However, from a broader developmental
perspective, emphasizing continuity, it may be argued that different earlier
patterns of relationships are carried forward (Sroufe & Fleeson, 1986) and
are expressed in the type of friendship established and in the level of
friendship reasoning. Future studies, in which earlier relationships of
adolescents are known, or where their attachment is evaluated may further
highlight the question of who establishes what type of close friendship in
adolescence.
Finally, close friendships in this study were evaluated from a dyadic,
systemic perspective and family terms were applied to relationships
between friends. Application of family sjistemic approaches may contribute
to a further understanding of friendship processes in adolescence.
