Moretti, Marlene M.; Wiebe, Vaneesa J. – Merrill-Palmer Quarterly, 1999
Examined the relationship between adolescents' detection of self-discrepancies and internalizing and externalizing problems. Found that self-discrepancy, independent of actual-self positivity, predicted internalizing and externalizing problems. For girls, discrepancy with parental standards predicted functioning, and discrepancy with independent…
