abstract="Using longitudinal data spanning a seven year period we investigated the behavioral and psycho-social effects resulting from a parent's death during early childhood or teenage years on adolescent and early adulthood functioning. <br><br>FINDINGS confirmed previous work demonstrating various behavioral problems and social-psychological adjustment deficits during adolescence. <br><br>RESULTS suggested that most detrimental adjustment behaviors among parentally bereaved youth fade as they entered into young adulthood. Yet, premature school withdrawals and diminished interests in college attendance at Wave 1 left many of these young adults with diminished academic accomplishments, lingering economic disadvantages and for females a hesitancy to marry as their lives progressed into adulthood.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
