The main goal of this work was to examine the contribution of sociodemografical data(gender, age, and living with/away from parents), personality traits of the five factor modeland individuation in relation to mother in explaining variance of adulthood criteria inpopulation of emerging adults. The aim was to affirm predicitive force of individuationfactors and personality traits controlling sociodemografic variables. The differencies inattaining adulthood criteria in relation to gender, age and cohabitation with or without parents,and individuation in relation to mother were also examined. For this purpose a sample of 338individuals, 18 to 32 years old, was questioned. Half of them lives with their parents, and only20 percent are males.Results show that gender and cohabitation significantly explain attainning adulthoodcriteria. Older individuals, and those who don't live with their parents attain more criteria.Among personality traits, consciousness is the significant positive predictor, while openness isthe supressor variable. Connection/support seeking and independence in relation to mother, asindividuation factors where positivley predictive of achived criteria for adulthood.It has been determined that women achieve more adulthood criteria, as well asexeminees which don't live with their parents and that the number of achieved criteriaincreases with age. Interaction effect shows that in the group of examinees which live withtheir parents, there is no difference in achieving adulthood criteria in relation to age, while inthe group of examinees which don't live with their parents the number of achieved criteriaincreases with age.Examining the relationship between demografic data and individuation in relation tomother, results show that females in comparision to males more often seek support from theirmothers and feel more related to them, as well as that individuals who don`t live with parentssee themselfs as more independent in relation to their mother. Therewith, the fear ofdisappointing the mother decreases with age.Given results are seen through characteristics of personality traits, the process ofseparation-individuation in relation to parents, developmental theories, all in connection withdelayed transition to adulthood.
