Infos

Within the last few decades, research has pointed to the personality feature of autonomy as essential to one's psychological health and well-being. Many books researching the subject have examined the effects of the sense of personal control, focusing on the elderly or the very young. This book, in contrast, takes a special focus on females throughout different stages of development. This book studies some causes and effects of females having or lacking a perceived sense of autonomy at each of the five phases of development (infancy and childhood, adolescence, early adulthood, the middle years of adulthood, and old age). It also devotes attention to cross-cultural differences across the lifespan, referencing ethnic and gender differences. Some of the vast topics discussed include autonomy and parental relationships, interpersonal relationships, manifestations of autonomy, mental health, and responses to aging. Psychologists, sociologists, and women's studies professionals.
