KUHAR Metka orcid.org/0000-0001-8311-1272 ; Faculty of Social Sciences, Ljubljana

Abstract

The study sets out to shed light on ways in which parents
(communicatively) assert authority vis-à-vis their adolescent
children in situations challenging parental authority, the
perceived most probable outcomes of these situations, and
attitudes towards ideal outcomes. To this aim four
(situationally specific) vignettes are analyzed. The sample
consisted of 194 first born children aged 11 to 18, and both
of their parents living in Slovenia. The relevance of findings
is generalized beyond the existing sample.
