an article by Sandra Buchholz and Hans-Peter Blossfeld (University of Bamberg, Germany) published in New Directions for Youth Development Volume 2012 Issue 135 (Autumn/fall 2012)

Hazel’s comment:
It is unfortunate, to say the least, that the abstracts in this publication are so scanty as there are several articles in this issue that look potentially interesting.
