Life storytelling reflects development, personality, and cultural upbringing. There remains room to consider how young adolescents' life storytelling is relevant to development and adjustment. We were interested in adolescents' agency and communion as they shared life stories alongside their mothers. We tested descriptive questions about the ways agency and communion were expressed across multiple life stories. We also asked inferential questions about the relations between adolescent agency, communion, and psychological adjustment.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We recruited 30 mother-adolescent dyads from Missouri, USA (mean mother age = 43.0 years; mean adolescent age = 12.8 years; 53.3% boys) to complete a videorecorded life storytelling task and complete additional surveys about adolescent and mother adjustment. We rated life stories for expressions of agency (e.g., messages about assertiveness and self-determination) and communion (e.g., mentions of caring for and supporting close others).</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Adolescent agency was lower during stories about upsetting life events.
