Adolescents' and Parents' Changing Conceptions of Parental Authority
Smetana, Judith; Crean, Hugh F.; Campione-Barr, Nicole
New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, n108 p31-46 Sum 2005

Too much parental control over personal issues in early adolescence leads to feelings of psychological control, but increasing autonomy over personal issues in later adolescence leads to better adjustment.
