It's Not Academic, You're in the Army Now: Adjustment to the Army as a Comparative Context for Adjustment to University.
Wintre, Maxine Gallander; Ben-Knaz, Revital
Journal of Adolescent Research, v15 n1 p145-72 Jan 2000
Investigated the presumed efficacy of authoritative parenting in influencing adjustment during basic training to the Israeli army, a more authoritarian environment. Found that authoritatively reared children were at a disadvantage with regard to successful adjustment to the army. They were more depressed, experienced greater stress, and had lower self-esteem compared to soldiers from authoritarian and permissive backgrounds. (Author/KB)
