This paper offers a review of the literature related to the short and long- term effects of marital divorce on adult and young adults children. International research on the consequences of divorce on the psychological well-being of children has often overlooked the impact that this event and the changes associated with it could have on adult children life and choices. The experience of being “caught” in the marital conflict seems to have long-term outcomes and to influence the relationship with the father and mother differ- ently. The article, through a clinical exemplification, also focuses on the conse- quences of divorce on the quality of the adult children couple relationships and describes some types of intervention.
L’articolo propone una rassegna della letteratura relativa agli effetti a breve e lungo termine del divorzio coniugale sui figli adulti e giovani adulti. La ricerca internazionale relativa alle conseguenze del divorzio sul benessere psi- cologico dei figli ha spesso trascurato l’impatto che l’evento separativo e i cam- biamenti ad esso connessi possono avere sulla vita e sulle scelte dei figli adul- ti. Il vissuto del sentirsi “intrappolati” nel conflitto coniugale sembra avere esiti a lungo termine e influenzare differentemente la relazione con il padre e con la madre. L’articolo, attraverso un’esemplificazione clinica, si concentra anche sulle conseguenze del divorzio sulla qualità delle relazioni di coppia dei figli adulti e propone alcune tipologie di intervento.

Abstract
This paper offers a review of the literature related to the short and long- term effects of marital divorce on adult and young adults children. International research on the consequences of divorce on the psychological well-being of children has often overlooked the impact that this event and the changes associated with it could have on adult children life and choices. The experience of being “caught” in the marital conflict seems to have long-term outcomes and to influence the relationship with the father and mother differ- ently. The article, through a clinical exemplification, also focuses on the conse- quences of divorce on the quality of the adult children couple relationships and describes some types of intervention.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
