The Role of Inflexible Friendship Beliefs, Rumination, and Low Self-worth in Early Adolescents'
Friendship Jealousy and Adjustment
Author: Lavallee, Kristen L; Parker, Jeffrey G

Abstract: Two focal social cognitive processes were evaluated in a structural model for their direct and indirect
roles in early adolescents' jealousy surrounding their closest friend in a sample of 325 early adolescents (169
girls and 156 boys) ages 11-14 years. Individuals who are rigid and unrealistic about meeting their friendship
needs were more vulnerable to feelings of jealousy than individuals who think more flexibly. Inflexible individuals
also engage in more jealousy-driven surveillance and other problem behavior towards their friends. Stronger
jealous feelings and behavior were related, in turn, to greater conflict with friends and to a vulnerability to
emotional maladjustment. In addition, young adolescents who tended to ruminate over friendship problems
were also more vulnerable to jealousy. Inflexible attitudes and friendship rumination were positively associated.
Results extend recent models of friendship jealousy that focus only on early adolescents' self-worth.
