Download or read book Encyclopedia of Adolescence written by Roger J.R. Levesque and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-09-05 with total page 3161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Encyclopedia of Adolescence breaks new ground as an important central resource for the study of adolescence. Comprehensive in breath and textbook in depth, the Encyclopedia of Adolescence – with entries presented in easy-to-access A to Z format – serves as a reference repository of knowledge in the field as well as a frequently updated conduit of new knowledge long before such information trickles down from research to standard textbooks. By making full use of Springer’s print and online flexibility, the Encyclopedia is at the forefront of efforts to advance the field by pushing and creating new boundaries and areas of study that further our understanding of adolescents and their place in society. Substantively, the Encyclopedia draws from four major areas of research relating to adolescence. The first broad area includes research relating to "Self, Identity and Development in Adolescence". This area covers research relating to identity, from early adolescence through emerging adulthood; basic aspects of development (e.g., biological, cognitive, social); and foundational developmental theories. In addition, this area focuses on various types of identity: gender, sexual, civic, moral, political, racial, spiritual, religious, and so forth. The second broad area centers on "Adolescents’ Social and Personal Relationships". This area of research examines the nature and influence of a variety of important relationships, including family, peer, friends, sexual and romantic as well as significant nonparental adults. The third area examines "Adolescents in Social Institutions". This area of research centers on the influence and nature of important institutions that serve as the socializing contexts for adolescents. These major institutions include schools, religious groups, justice systems, medical fields, cultural contexts, media, legal systems, economic structures, and youth organizations. "Adolescent Mental Health" constitutes the last major area of research. This broad area of research focuses on the wide variety of human thoughts, actions, and behaviors relating to mental health, from psychopathology to thriving. Major topic examples include deviance, violence, crime, pathology (DSM), normalcy, risk, victimization, disabilities, flow, and positive youth development.

Download or read book Adolescents Perceptions of Parental Communication and Perception of Contraceptive Knowledge written by Danielle Kai Grabe and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the quality of parental communication between parents and adolescents at ages 13 and 14. Variables such as self-esteem, gender of parents, race, contraceptive knowledge, and contraceptive use at ages 19 and 20 were investigated in relation to the quality of parental communication at the earlier age. Participants (n = 642, male = 270, female = 372) were 13-14 year olds in Wave II of the national longitudinal study Adolescent Health (Add Health) and 19-20 years old in Wave III. Results of this study indicate adolescents' knowledge of contraceptives at age 19-20 was not associated with quality of parental communication at ages 13-14. However, high quality of parental communication at ages 13-14 was predictive of effective contraceptive use at ages 19-20. Self-esteem at ages 13-14 was not a significant predictor of effective contraceptive use at ages 19-20. There were significant differences in quality of parental communication when racial groups were examined separately. White and Asian adolescents reported significantly higher quality of parental communication when compared to African-American adolescents. In addition, there were significant differences between the reported qualities of mother communication compared to father communication; adolescents reported a significantly higher quality of communication for mothers than for fathers. Recommendations for future researchers are to study the specific differences in communication in an attempt to identify the unique characteristics that adolescents view as positive communication. This study has implications for how practitioners educate parents about communication skills and their influence on adolescent behaviors.

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.
Download or read book Confirmation and Adolescent Development written by René M. Dailey and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study provides an initial test of the theory of parental confirmation. Building on a more general theory of interpersonal confirmation, the theory was extended to focus on parent-adolescent relationships. This expanded theory suggests that adolescents who are confirmed (i.e., validated as a unique and valuable individuals) will make greater advancements in development than adolescents who are disconfirmed (i.e., discounted or rejected). More specifically, the theory emphasizes how the climate created by parental messages was related to the level of adolescent self-esteem, identity strength, and openness with their parents. An observational analysis in combination with self-report measures was employed to test the hypotheses derived from the theory. Generally, the results, particularly of the self-report data, supported the relationship between level of confirming climate and adolescents' developmental outcomes. Yet, analyses also suggested that adolescents' family satisfaction mediated this relationship. Specifically, adolescent family satisfaction fully mediated the relationship between parental confirmation and adolescent self-esteem and identity strength, whereas parental confirmation was directly as well as indirectly (i.e., though family satisfaction) related to adolescent openness. These results suggest that parental communication is linked with adolescents' perceptions of their family experiences as well as their development. Results additionally show that family satisfaction makes an independent and substantial contribution to adolescent development. Results are discussed in terms of theoretical and practical implications. Suggestions for future research are also proffered.
