Study Notes
- Transitions: Normative (most teens go through, around the same time) - Puberty. Idiosyncratic (not everyone goes through, or unpredictable) - Death of a parent.
- History of Adolescence (timeline): Ancient Greece - No adolescence. Preindustrial Europe - Teens but still contributed to the family. 18th Century - Rousseau defined adolescence and its value. 19th Century - Education promoted, and population increased. Now - Teens can be exposed to more due to internet.
- Learning Loss: Caused by education during the pandemic, made teens struggle.
- Social Changes: Family make-up, influence of peers, sexuality, social media, racial injustices.
- Globalization: Information travels from continent to continent within seconds. Effects on friendships/dating, education, aging population, voting implications, less locked into traditional ways, and vulnerable to impacts.
- Theories: psychoanalytic (Freud: unconscious urges determine behavior), Erikson (identity vs. role confusion stage), cognitive (Piaget: formal operations), learning and social cognitive (Skinner: behavior based on rewards/punishments), social and anthropological (continuous/discontinuous societies), ecological and developmental systems (Urie's systems), and developmental systems theory (interactions between systems impact development).
- Research Methods: Specific activities of the participants. Research Design: Overall plan of the study.
