Özet
This study aimed to explore whether gender and age created a meaningful difference on adolescents' self acceptance levels and friend relationships, and determine the relationship between self acceptance levels and friend relationships. Participants were 395 adolescents attending the general high schools in central Ki{dotless}rşehir. The "Self Acceptance Inventory" developed by Temuge (1987) was used to determine adolescents' self acceptance levels and Kaner's (2002) "Peer Relationships Scale" was used to determine their friend relationships. The results showed that gender created a meaningful difference in the commitment, opening oneself and loyalty subdimensions of adolescents' friend relationships, but not in their trust and overall friend relationships mean scores. Age, on the other hand, did not cause a meaningful difference in either friend relationships or self acceptance levels, while a meaningful and positive relationship did exist between self acceptance level and the commitment and opening oneself subdimensions of the friend relationships scale. © Common Ground, Aynur Bütün Ayhan, Müdriye Yildiz Biçakçi, Remziye Ceylan, Figen Gürsoy, Neriman Aral.
