Parentification - the process of role-reversal wherein children become functional and/or emotional caregivers to their parents - has been empirically linked to an array of long-term outcomes. Most studies reporting these outcomes have utilized college student samples and parentification has been shown to be a factor in college students' emotional and psychological difficulties. However, only a handful of studies have focused specifically on the relationship between parentification and students' adjustment to college, the results of which have pointed to lower adjustment among parentified college students. Since parentification dynamics often persist into adulthood, the current investigation sought (1) to examine not only childhood, but also current, experiences of parentification in relation to college adjustment, and (2) to examine the hypothesized moderating role of dependency style in these associations. Participants in this study were 323 undergraduate and graduate students living in the U.S. The results of primary study analyses showed significant negative associations between parentification (past and current) and students' self-reported college adjustment. A near-significant moderating effect of healthy dependency on the association between parentification and college adjustment was observed, however, in the opposite direction than originally hypothesized: findings suggest that higher levels of healthy dependency may exacerbate, rather than mitigate, the effects of parentification on college adjustment. In a series of exploratory analyses, parentification emerged as a significantly greater predictor of college adjustment than past parentification. Results also highlighted the key roles of perceived unfairness and emotional parentification in predicting college adjustment. The results of mediation analyses indicated that interpersonal dependency may serve as a mechanism through which parentification impacts college adjustment. Study findings signify a need for further research on the correlates of parentification experiences that persist into adulthood, as well as further exploration of interpersonal dependency as a potential intervening variable in the link between parentification and its sequelae.
