What changes when a teenager can choose how to help someone?
This article examines how encouragement of adolescent choice relates to prosocial behaviour across personality differences. The family question centres on who owns a decision and how a young person experiences adult support.
Who was studied?
Participants across four studies using cross-sectional, longitudinal and experimental designs.
Age / stage: Adolescence
Read with three questions
- What does the article establish about how encouragement of adolescent choice relates to prosocial behaviour across personality differences?
- Which conclusions relied on experimental comparisons and which relied on associations?
- How closely does the population described here match the family or setting you have in mind? The population to compare is participants across four studies using cross-sectional, longitudinal and experimental designs.
Keep the limits in view
The experiments and observational studies answer different questions. Only comparisons actually manipulated in an experiment can support a causal interpretation.
