Lifespan Development

The symposium seeks to better understand the determinants and consequences of overprotective parenting during adolescence. This is done by zooming in through a consideration of adolescents’ responses to overprotection, and by zooming out through a consideration of individual-level and context-level factors that may explain why parents engage in overprotective parenting.
