• Resumen

  • This study assesses the extent to which portrayals of father-adolescent daughter relationships in four Disney feature films (The Litte mermaid, Aladdin, Beaty and the Beast, and Pocahontas) correspond with the qualities of successful and unsucessful father-adolescent daughter relationships as revealed in the research literature. Finding indicated that the relationships in The Little Mermaid and Aladdin correspond to father-adolescent daughter relationships in Beauty and the Beast and Pocahontas are more consistent with father-adolescent daugther relationships in which the father allows the daughter freedom to negotiate her adolescence. Implications of these findings are discussed
