Abstract
Urban adolescent microsystems are challenging spaces that cause stress for teens. This study evaluates the difference between what adolescents report are their actual stressors versus what parents perceive are their teens' stressors. Results show there is a reality disconnect between parents and teens as it relates to adolescent stress experiences.
