A new study by Ayalla Ruvio, a marketing professor at Temple's Fox School of Business, surveyed 343 mother-daughter pairs and found that many of the women interviewed were taking fashion cues from their daughters. "This finding provides initial support for the notion of reverse socialization and suggests that the impact adolescents have on their parents is much more profound than has been credited to them," said Ruvio, the lead author.
