    Kuhar, Metka, 1978- ; Reiter, Herwig, sociolog
    The present paper analyzes and contextualizes the phenomenon of prolonged coresidence of parents and young adult children in Slovenia. It analyzes the process of moving out or staying at home on the ... basis of a subsample of young people between 19 and 29 who are no longer at school included in the representative Slovenian field survey Youth 2010. Young people still living in the household of their parents or (legal) guardians are compared with those who have already left. The analysis considers factors associated with the status transitions from youth to adulthood; the demographic, social and economic background; and the perception of the parentechild relationship quality and parenting style by the children. Our findings point to the importance of possibilities for independent housing and the economic capacity of young people and their family. The most important factor behind moving out seems to be a stable partnership.
