Growing Together, Thinking Apart: Shared Meaning, Dialectical Thinking, and Family Well‐Being Across Generations
The study highlights adolescent family life as a relational context in which well-being reflects ongoing negotiation of connection and autonomy. The pattern emphasizes the importance of considering interdependence, role-specific dynamics, and culturally embedded meaning-making when interpreting links between family functioning and life satisfaction.
