Resumen:
Some correlates and antecedents of leaving home were examined in the fourth wave of a longitudinal sample of Argentinian emerging adults aged 21-26. Regarding psychological health, no differences in self-esteem, depression, anxiety, antisocial behavior, aggressiveness or substance use were found among those residing with parents (62%) or with a romantic partner (25%) or by themselves ?excepting males? binge drinking. Living at home in emerging adulthood did not jeopardize the quality of relationship with parents. No differences in conflict or support were found among the groups. Aditionally, type of residence was not related to previous quality of the relationship or with parents´ divorce.
