Tóm tắt

Three studies were conducted to test the general question: Does the successful transition through emerging adulthood exacerbate or inhibit the worry that emerging adults may be feeling regarding money and/or unemployment? Studies 1 (N = 88, average age = 19.06 years) and 2 (N = 146, average age = 19.21 years) sampled emerging adults from a small liberal arts college and asked them to complete questionnaires to assess facets of emerging adulthood (identity exploration, experimentation, negativity, self-focused, other-focused, and feeling in-between), worry, and demographics. Study 1 was correlational and showed that negativity was positively correlated with worry about money and job status. Study 2 used a four-wave longitudinal design and found that early negativity was related to later worry. Finally, Study 3 (N = 181, average age = 22.85) used a correlational design to test the relationships between the emerging adulthood facets and worry with a more heterogeneous emerging adult population (sampled using Mechanical Turk). In all three studies, results consistently found a positive relationship between negativity and worry about unemployment and money. This suggests that as emerging adults struggle with negativity (e.g., instability in their lives) as they transition through emerging adulthood, there is more worry regarding job status and finances. © 2018, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.
