Adolescents' future orientation and their family environment
Abstract
The future orientation is particularly important for the development of human activities
and forming a relatively stable way of life. In contemporary Polish literature on
psychology the problem of future orientation is relatively rarely considered, particularly
from the point of view of its developmental determinants. The main aim of this study
was to recognize the role of the family environment for forming the future orientation in
adolescence. The research was carried on 200 girls and boys aged 16-18 and 360 adults -
parents of the adolescents studied. The main research tools used in the study were the
following: an essay on the subject "I and my future" and a questionnaire which studies
atmosphere at home and parenting strategies. The results show that the family environment
influences the formation of future orientation of the adolescents in many ways.
A coherent and harmonious family atmosphere is conducive to the formation of the profamily
orientation, and bad one threatens making close emotional ties with other people
and involvement in intimate relation in adult life. The parenting strategies influence the
structure of future orientation of adolescents. An influence of particular importance is
exerted by the amount of time given over to a child by his/her parents, taking into consideration
his/her opinions when a decision concerning family life are made and the
widely understood support given to adolescent by the parents in difficult situations.
