TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated a multi-mediation model of the relationship between bullying behavior, peer victimization, personal identity, and family characteristics to adolescent depressive symptoms in 194 high school students, 12-18 years of age.

TL;DR: Findings highlighted the importance of considering limited emotional variability during conflict interactions in the development, prevention, and treatment of internalizing problems of mothers and adolescents.

TL;DR: The authors examined the correlates of hypermaturity (i.e. 12-year olds with a personality profile resembling the profile of an average 20-year-old) and immaturity, and found that girls with high levels of hyper-maturity exhibited higher levels of internalizing problem behaviour and conflict with parents, while hypermat maturity in boys was only associated with internalizing problems.

TL;DR: The current study underscores the importance of distinguishing normativeness and distinctiveness when examining personality profile stability and the degree to which a personality profile of an individual matches the average personality profile within the sample at a certain point in time.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare identity formation in juvenile delinquent and clinically referred boys to identity formation of boys drawn from the general population, and find that the latter have weaker identity in both the ideological and interpersonal domains than the former.
