    Adolescent Development and Mental Health, Adulthood, and Risk Perception

    • Physiological understanding of illness includes the impact of different illnesses on internal organs, such as cancer being the result of rapid cell growth
    • Psychophysiological illness can result from a combination of physiological and psychological causes, with social development and parenting styles playing significant roles
    • Chronic illness and disability can have physical, emotional, social, educational, and vocational effects on individuals
    • Healthcare professionals need to consider adolescents' conflicting priorities and meet them halfway, addressing issues such as adherence to treatment, sexual behaviors, and mental health
    • Sexual behaviors in adolescence are influenced by partners, social expectations, and societal perceptions of men and women
    • Mental health issues in adolescence, particularly severe depression, are on the rise and are associated with various risk factors and protective factors
    • Human development in adulthood involves patterns of behavior and psychological states, with specific stages of development, such as intimacy vs. isolation and generativity vs. stagnation

    Communication of Risk and Behavioral Implications

    • Unrealistic optimism bias leads individuals to underestimate their personal risk compared to others.
    • Public health strategies, such as posters with acronyms like FAST for stroke assessment, have led to decreased mortality rates for stroke by increasing risk awareness.
    • Accurate communication of risk to patients involves using precise numbers, visual aids, and expressing encouragement and hope.
    • Relative risk, number needed to treat, and absolute risk reduction are important statistics for communicating risk to people.
    • Conformity and obedience play a role in behavior, as seen in Milgram's experiment and the bystander effect.
    • Alcohol Use Disorder criteria include recurrent use in hazardous situations, continued use despite problems, tolerance, withdrawal, and craving.
    • Alcohol Use Disorder is embedded in learning theory, with genetics and environmental factors contributing to dependence.
    • Negative consequences of alcohol use disorder include physical and mental health problems, financial issues, and violent behavior.
    • Assessment for alcohol use disorder involves evaluating physical and psychiatric conditions, unit consumption, withdrawal symptoms, and daily drinking patterns.
    • Prevention and treatment for alcohol use disorder may involve support groups, depending on the patient's history and severity of dependence.
