“…This finding is consistent with prior research on young people's relationships with parents and important nonparental adults such as mentors, in which the majority of young people (but not all) rate these relationships as positive (e.g., Bowers et al, 2012). Furthermore, this finding is expected given that it is unlikely that participants would have nominated, as an example of how to be a good person, someone with whom they had a strongly negative relationship.…”

“…Programas e iniciativas semelhantes estão a surgir em todo o mundo (DuBois & Karcher, 2005), conferindo uma dimensão global aos reconhecidos benefícios associados aos processos de mentoria. Na base da crescente expansão desta intervenção com adolescentes está o reconhecimento de que relações positivas com adultos não parentais constituem um fator promotor de resiliência e de desenvolvimento normativo e saudável (Bowers et al, 2012;Rhodes, 2002). Em geral, os adolescentes são recetivos à presença de adultos não parentais dada a sua necessidade de independência e autonomização face à sua ligação aos pais, mas num momento em que ainda valorizam os conselhos dos indivíduos mais experientes (Grossman & Bulle, 2006).…”
