“…However, the SRRS was developed as a predictor of illness for adults and, hence, does not measure the causes of adolescent adaptation, nor does it offer adolescents, parents, or teachers a clear perception of events that may be related to adolescent stress. To meet this need, Beall & Schmidt (1984) developed the Youth Adaptation Rating Scale (YARS). The YARS was based developed the Youth Adaptation Rating Scale (YARS).…”

“…Research from early use of the Youth Adaptation Rating Scale (YARS) (Beall & Schmidt, 1984) showed that the combination of many negatively rated, and a few positively rated, circumstances was most predictive of subsequent distress. Lazarus, Kanner, and Folkman (1980) hypothesized that positive feeling states may improve the individual's ability to cope by providing a "breather" from negative experiences.…”

“…For example, if there are 50 students rating items, the highest possible score for each item would be 5 X 50 (250). The total of all ratings would then be divided by 250 to attain a ratio of severity for each item (Beall & Schmidt, 1984).…”

“…The rating procedure was the same as recommended by Beall and Schmidt (1984), the originators of the YARS. A ratio value, or degree of severity of adaptation, was determined for each event of the scale.…”

Betz and Hackett's (1981) career self-efficacy model was extended using an ethnically mixed (White, Hispanic, American Indian) rural high school population (467 girls and 426 boys). A modified form of Betz and Hackett's interest and self-efficacy instrument was used as well as measures of ethnicity, socioeconomic status, stressful life events, and self-esteem. Gender differences were observed in interest and self-efficacy estimates for same-gender and cross-gender occupations, marked by boys' restricted consideration of cross-gender options. Ethnic differences were noted as well, particularly regarding self-efficacy estimates, with American Indian efficacy lowest for 7 of IS occupations studied. Stepwise multiple regression analyses with interest and efficacy as the dependent variables yielded equations that varied by ethnicity.

Adolescence is generally regarded as a time of transition demanding considerable adaptation. Failing to successfully negotiate the developmental hurdles associated with this period can have serious physical and psychosocial consequences (e.g., teenage pregnancy, suicide, disruption of social relationships, poor school performance). Efforts to identify problems that adolescents typically experience have been useful in facilitating a better understanding of this developmental phase. However, the perceived concerns or worries of adolescents themselves have been neglected as an additional source of useful information. This study assessed the worries of 622 adolescents between the ages of 12 and 20 years on an 80-item self-report measure, the "Things That Worry Me" scale. Findings indicated consistent concerns related to terrorism, adolescents' self-esteem, parents' physical and mental health, and adolescents' dating and sexual relationships. Gender- and race-specific differences are discussed and implications for future research and clinical applications are offered.
