Communication Patterns and Alliances between Parents and Adolescents during a Structured Problem-Solving Task.

Jory, Brian; And Others

Journal of Adolescence, v19 n4 p339-46 Aug 1996

Observed the influence of gender on communication patterns and reciprocal alliances within the context of a controlled problem-solving task. Found that families with boys engaged in more active bargaining than families with girls. Sons made offers for alliances to mothers at almost twice the rate of daughters. (RJM)
