Abstract:
This study examined mother-daughter communication in two tasks. Adolescents (N = 41) from two age levels (mean age = 13.45 and 20.50 years) participated with their mothers in solving math questions and decorating a mirror. Their utterances were coded into fifteen categories based Condon, Cooper and Grotevant (1984). The results showed that the communications of adolescents differed according to their age level. Older adolescents (college students) associated with their mothers on equal terms while accomplishing the tasks. In contrast, younger adolescents (junior high school students) were supported by their mothers. These differences were also evident in the mothers' data.
