O presente estudo procura adaptar para a população portuguesa o Individuation Test for Emerging Adults (ITEA) e analisar as suas características psicométricas. A amostra em estudo foi constituída por 432 adultos emergentes portugueses com idades compreendidas entre os 18 e os 30 anos. A análise fatorial confirmatória revelou índices de ajustamento adequados confirmando o modelo conceptual original do ITEA. Os resultados alcançados revelam propriedades psicométricas que confirmam a adequação linguística e cultural do ITEA na população portuguesa. O ITEA revelou-se capaz de identificar diferenças no processo de distanciamento psicológico aos pais, por parte dos adultos emergentes, em função da idade e género dos participantes. A confiabilidade foi avaliada através do alpha de Cronbach, que revelou índices de .80 /.82 para a totalidade do instrumento na sua versão da mãe e do pai. Para além disto, foi encontrada a invariância de medição entre os papéis parentais e o género do participante.
