FRIENDSHIP AMONG TODAY’S TEENAGERS. AN ASCERTAINING STUDY

Summary/Abstract: In psychological terms, adolescence is characterized by a propensity toward association in different groups, friendship being the major criterion for selection and cohesion. Friendship relationships established during high school years bear the seal of strength and durability, many of them being preserved intact for extended periods of several decades. Our proposed research was meant to identify the elements that the surveyed adolescents considered to be the qualities of a friend, and the aspects that support such a relationship. A number of 1127 high school students from Alba Iulia County were questioned[12], whereas the age, the classes and the specializations of studies were representative for that area. The results show the need for honesty, trust and empathy that teenagers consider important for the building of a friendship.
