Adolescents' perceptions of their relationships with their parents predict the quality of these relationships as well as adolescent psychosocial outcomes. Despite this, adolescent attitudes towards parents are often assessed using self-report measures, partly due to a lack of interview or observational tools available, and there is a recognised need for more qualitative research on the underlying beliefs, attitudes, and expectations which shape adolescents' perspectives on their relationships with parents (Lester, 2013; Smetana, 2010). In three studies, this thesis explored adolescents' unique perceptions of their relationships with their parents and how these perspectives are related to adolescent psychosocial outcomes.Study 1 was an individual participant data meta-analysis of the relationship between adolescent-parent discordance in reports of parenting and adolescent outcomes using polynomial regression. The interaction of adolescent and parent reports of parenting was not significantly related to adolescent psychosocial outcomes, suggesting that adolescents' and parents' differing perspectives on their relationship may be due to their unique attitudes, beliefs, and expectations as opposed to maladaptive family dynamics.In Study 2 and 3, using an observational assessment tool and qualitative analytical methods, this thesis was able to provide unique information about how adolescents are impacted by their relationships with their parents, as compared to existing research. Study 2 explored the usefulness of a novel method-the Family Affective Attitudes Rating Scale (FAARS)-of coding adolescent narratives about their parents and the adolescent-parent relationship. This study found that adolescents whose attitudes towards parents are high in warmth and low in criticism report better outcomes, suggesting that adolescents' perspectives of the quality of adolescent-parent relationships are linked to their well-being.Study 3 qualitatively analysed these narratives to explore common themes regarding adolescents' beliefs about their parents. Adolescents were generally positive towards parents,valued closeness and emotional support from them, looked to them to role model valued traits, and generally respected parent rule setting. Mentions of conflict were often absent from the speech samples and were most likely to occur when parents were seen as stubborn and to not have adolescents' best interests at heart.Overall, the results from the studies in this thesis suggest that adolescents' perspectives on their relationships with their parents provide unique information as compared to parents' reports and are linked to developmental outcomes. Accordingly, it is important that researchers explore how parenting behaviours and relationship dynamics are perceived by adolescents and not just the level at which they exist, when examining how adolescent outcomes are linked to the family environment. For this reason, researchers and clinicians would benefit from adopting a wider variety of assessment methods and research methodologies when examining the beliefs, attitudes, and expectations that shape adolescents' perceptions of their relationships with their parents.
