This book was released on 2019-07-26 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adolescenceâ€"beginning with the onset of puberty and ending in the mid-20sâ€"is a critical period of development during which key areas of the brain mature and develop. These changes in brain structure, function, and connectivity mark adolescence as a period of opportunity to discover new vistas, to form relationships with peers and adults, and to explore one's developing identity. It is also a period of resilience that can ameliorate childhood setbacks and set the stage for a thriving trajectory over the life course. Because adolescents comprise nearly one-fourth of the entire U.S. population, the nation needs policies and practices that will better leverage these developmental opportunities to harness the promise of adolescenceâ€"rather than focusing myopically on containing its risks. This report examines the neurobiological and socio-behavioral science of adolescent development and outlines how this knowledge can be applied, both to promote adolescent well-being, resilience, and development, and to rectify structural barriers and inequalities in opportunity, enabling all adolescents to flourish.

Book Synopsis A Retrospective Exploration of Overweight Adolescent Girls' Relationships with Self, Others, and Cultural Context by : Amy Zavada
Download or read book A Retrospective Exploration of Overweight Adolescent Girls' Relationships with Self, Others, and Cultural Context written by Amy Zavada and published by ProQuest. This book was released on 2008 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using systems theory as a main theoretical influence, this phenomenology explored relational experiences with self, others, and cultural context. Twelve women who were currently between the ages of 22-29 and who, regardless of current weight, were overweight at some point in their adolescence, were interviewed over the telephone about their relational experiences as adolescents. These interviews produced 12 hours and 47 minutes of data which provided a wealth of information. Results of the interviews were presented in the domains of self, others, cultural context, and after adolescence/now. The domain of self revealed that weight was a focal point in the participants' relationship with self. It also highlighted the importance of sexual development in overweight adolescent girls. The domain of others revealed the important distinction between commentary and conversation in communication about weight-related issues. The domain of cultural context illuminated the influence of Western culture beauty ideals and enumerated ways in which participants, as adolescents, perceived that they were isolated from elements of culture. Finally the domain of after adolescence emphasized current perceptions around weight and revealed insights about the process of transformation. Based on participants' experiences during their adolescence, implications of the study highlighted the importance of, and stressed the need for, second-order change in the lives of overweight adolescent girls. Three specific areas of therapeutic intervention were suggested. Limitations of the study were addressed and directions for future research were discussed.

Book Synopsis The Oxford Handbook of Identity Development by : Kate C. McLean
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Identity Development written by Kate C. McLean and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-27 with total page 625 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Identity is defined in many different ways in various disciplines in the social sciences and sub-disciplines within psychology. The developmental psychological approach to identity is characterized by a focus on developing a sense of the self that is temporally continuous and unified across the different life spaces that individuals inhabit. Erikson proposed that the task of adolescence and young adulthood was to define the self by answering the question: Who Am I? There have been many advances in theory and research on identity development since Erikson's writing over fifty years ago, and the time has come to consolidate our knowledge and set an agenda for future research. The Oxford Handbook of Identity Development represents a turning point in the field of identity development research. Various, and disparate, groups of researchers are brought together to debate, extend, and apply Erikson's theory to contemporary problems and empirical issues. The result is a comprehensive and state-of-the-art examination of identity development that pushes the field in provocative new directions. Scholars of identity development, adolescent and adult development, and related fields, as well as graduate students, advanced undergraduates, and practitioners will find this to be an innovative, unique, and exciting look at identity development.
