Associations Between Shyness and Internalizing Behaviors, Externalizing Behaviors, and Relationships during Emerging Adulthood (2008, background): “Indeed, it has been found that young women consider 25 years of age to be the ideal age of marriage (Carroll et al. 2007) while an increasing number of women are even putting off marriage and motherhood all together (Bianchi 1990; Whitehead and Popenoe 2001).”
Friendship and Romantic Relationship Qualities in Emerging Adulthood: Differential Associations with Identity Development and Achieved Adulthood Criteria (2009, background): “Indeed research suggests that young people may see a developmental process in which they focus first on becoming self-reliant adults and then turn toward more serious relationships (Carroll et al. 2007), which would result in less time divested in friendships.”
Ready or Not? (2009, unknown): “This study was based in a marital horizon theory of emerging adulthood (Carroll et al., 2007), which proposes that emerging adults’ perspectives about marriage provide a useful conceptual lens through which to describe and explain their current attitudes and behaviors.”
The Impact of Maternal Relationship Quality on Emerging Adults’ Prosocial Tendencies: Indirect Effects via Regulation of Prosocial Values (2008, background): “Furthermore, Carroll et al. (2007) found that relational maturity (a construct reflecting prosocial attributes necessary for the formation and maintenance of relationships) is a key component for preparation for the adult roles of marriage and family life.”
The Relationships Between Emerging Adults' Expressed Desire to Marry and Frequency of Participation in Risk-Taking Behaviors (2009, background): “ideal age for marriage would be about 25 years (Carroll et al., 2007).”
The Challenge of Romantic Relationships in Emerging Adulthood (2013, background): “These findings suggest that marriage is a teleological goal for the vast majority of emerging adults because they are both planning for and expecting to get married (Carroll et al., 2007).”
Managing Intractable Identity Conflicts (2009, background): “Finally, conflicts can become normalized (Stock, 2001) as the conflicting parties begin to collude to continue the conflict (Crocker et al., 2005; Northrup, 1989; Zartman, 2005).”
