Ծնողական վերաբերմունքով պայմանավորված դեռահասի քոփինգի ուսումնասիրումը լրիվ և ոչ լրիվ ընտանիքներում / The Study of Adolescent Coping Determined by Parental Behavior in Full and Incomplete Families

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to study the characteristics and orientations of coping behavior of teenagers in difficult situations caused by parental attitudes, when they live in full and incomplete – in this case divorced families. The parental family is the most important system for the development of the child's personality, for the formation of individual characteristics, the socio-psychological peculiarities of which determine the social and psychological "fate" of the younger generation. The previously adopted positions, stereotypes that the welfare of incomplete families is weak, and inferior to that of full families, are accepted controversially by modern society. And contemporary science tries to approach to these problems in a new way, to give them new interpretations and new qualities. That's why the studies aimed at identifying the differences in the formation and manifestation of children's psychological characteristics caused by parent-child relations in complete and incomplete families are important and valuable. Our task is to identify adolescents' coping strategies in the context of parent-child relationships, for which we applied the "Parents' behavior and adolescents' attitude towards them" and "Coping behavior in difficult situations" methodologies. As a result of our research, it became clear that there is still a difference between the coping orientations of adolescents from single-parent and two-parent families. And most importantly, the analysis of inter-conditional relationships showed that the choice of strategic actions to overcome the difficulties of children from single-parent families depends on the behavior of divorced parents and their attitude towards the teenager.
