Abstract
The study compared adolescents who alternate residences between
their divorced parents with adolescents who live with both parents
or with one divorced parent. Care was scored equally for adolescents with alternating residences and for those living with both biological parents but lower for adolescents living with a single parent.
Overprotection showed the converse. Presence of psychiatric symptoms was equal for adolescents who alternate residences and for
those living with both parents, but it was higher for those living
with a single parent. Sense of coherence was noted to be higher
among teens with alternating residences and teens living with both
parents, but it was lower among those living with a single parent.
