Adaptation of Psychological Separation Inventory (PSI) for Russian Sample.

Psychological separation from parents is one of the main developmental tasks during late adolescence. In the current study this psychological process among Russian and Ossetian adolescents is described. The aim of this study was to adapt the Psychological Separation Inventory (PSI) by J. Hoffman (1984) for Russian Sample. Participants were 196 students from Moscow, Vladikavkaz and Alagir, between 17–24 years (M = 19.1, SD = 1.30). The internal consistency of the Russian version of PSI is 0.92. Correlations were performed between PSI, WAS and FACES-III.
