The article includes a review of the literature and a description of the empirical study aimed at comparing the average level of sense of security and of self-assessment in groups of adolescents form two- and one-parent (as a result of divorce) families. A group of 120 participants (62 W, 58 M) aged 15-17 (M = 15.87; SD = 0.88) took part in the study. Based on the data obtained in the Sense of Security Questionnaire (SSQ) and the Multidimensional Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) it was proved, that adolescents raised in one-parent families are characterized by a statistically significantly lower level of sense of security and of self-assessment than adolescents raised in two-parent families.
