Preliminary findings on psychometric properties of the adolescent story stem profile

Our results yield critical insights into the complex nature of adolescents' psychological development, highlighting the necessity for tailored measures and interventions that address the diverse psychological needs of this population. Overall, this study represents a significant initial step toward establishing the ASSP as a valuable resource in both research and clinical practice, with implications for future studies aimed at enhancing our understanding of attachment to carers, peer relations, mentalization and affect competences in adolescence. The insights gained from this research underscore the importance of developing assessment tools that are sensitive to the unique psychological experiences of adolescents, ultimately contributing to more effective interventions and support strategies.
