Associations of Extroversion and Parental Overprotection with Forming Relationships with Peers Among Adolescents with and without Visual Impairments

摘要

We analyzed the role of parental overprotection and extroversion in forming relationships with peers among 158 adolescents with visual impairments and 158 adolescents who were sighted. Negative associations of overprotection with the number of friends and membership in a peer group and of low extroversion with having a close friend were stronger in the adolescents with visual impairment.
