The
COPAA Project: The Communication of Parents and Adolescents
in Appalachia Project examines the behavioral efforts
parents use to monitor their children who are between 10
and 17 years of age. Current literature on parental
monitoring focuses on the type of knowledge parents obtain
about their children’s activities and where this
information comes from but there is no understanding of
what behaviors parents use to provide effective monitoring.
