text: This longitudinal study addresses the role of support given by parents and
peers during the transition from university to work life. A sample of 64 German
university students in their last year at the university completed scales from
the Network of Relationships Inventory regarding general support, namely, instrumental
aid and intimacy with mothers, fathers, romantic partners, and friends. Four years
later, they assessed domain-specific support when looking for work, namely, joint
exploration and instrumental support. Participants perceived receiving both types
of support from all significant others. However, joint exploration was more important
than instrumental support. They felt especially supported by romantic partners.
Women received more support than did men. Both types of domain-specific support
were explained by general modes of support assessed 4 years earlier. Whether parents,
friends, and partners were perceived as helpful during the transition was explained
mainly by joint exploration. Again, support from a partner was seen as especially
helpful in contrast to help from parents and friends. The special significance
of joint exploration underlines the benefit of counseling at the transition from
university to work life.
