Abstract

Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare runaway girls and normal girls regarding family cohesion and emotional autonomy.

Method: 35 runaway girls and 35 normal girls filled out the Family Cohesion Scale and Emotional Autonomy Scale. Data were analyzed using discriminant analysis and t-test.

Results: The comparison of the runaway girls and the normal group indicated a significant difference in four out of five dimensions of Family Cohesion Scale (cohesion with father, marital relationship, place of interaction, and parent-adolescent relationship). Also, the results of discriminant analysis showed that marital relationship and parent-adolescent relationship are two factors that can discriminate %77 of runaway girls from normal girls.

Conclusion: Style of familial relationships is an important factor in the difference between runaway girls and normal girls.
