Behaviour Problems and Relationships with Family and Peers during Adolescence.

Buysse, W. H.

Journal of Adolescence, v20 n6 p645-59 Dec 1997

Using a socio-ecological perspective, examines the influences of adolescents' social networks, personal resources, and environmental risks on adolescents' behavior problems across three samples of youth (N=155). Findings show that social support can operate as a protective agent or as a risk factor, depending on other characteristics of subsystems involved. (EMK)
