Brief Overview

This series advances disciplinary and multidisciplinary inquiry into the individual, social, biological, and institutional responses to adolescents and their development. It champions research that examines conditions that either stifle or enhance responsible development.

Description

Responsible adolescent developmentone that is healthy, fulfilling, engaged, and respectful of ones self and othersrequires responsive relationships with families, peers, neighbors, schools, community organizations, religious institutions, and other socializing systems. All these socializing influences reach optimal effectiveness when reinforced by appropriate social policies and norms at local, cultural, state, national, international and global levels. This series examines the wide variety of sources that shape responses to adolescents and responsible development. This series explores these complex sources by exhibiting theories, models, research studies, and symposia that examine multiple dimensions of adolescent development.

Drawing from numerous disciplines, the series examines dimensions and experiences of adolescent development that contribute to responsibility (including irresponsibility) in multiple contexts and settings. The focus on multiple arenas of development necessarily encompasses the need to center on adolescents as well as on the conditions in which they live. Thus, the series publishes manuscripts that speak to issues adolescents face, but does not require that texts directly study adolescents themselves. Manuscripts may examine images and portrayals of adolescents through, for example, cultural assumptions of parenting, media depictions, religious groups proselytizing, schoolings hidden curriculum, justice systems presumptions, clinicians interventions, and many other potential influences on adolescent development. The broadening of the disciplinary and multidisciplinary study of adolescence, however, does not mean that the series ignores core issues from adolescents own perspectives, such as adolescents experiences with significant others and with the wide variety of tasks, risks, and opportunities they encounter.

Diversity and change mark the adolescent period. It stretches from pre-puberty through puberty to young adulthood, which typically ranges from ages 10 to 19. Despite that broad range, who is considered an adolescent varies: some can be younger or older, depending on cultural, social, and individual factors. There also is much diversity in the social, physical, mental, and emotional changes common to adolescents . Even individual adolescents own diversity can change; all markers used to designate diversity, including racial and sexual identity, develop through adolescence. By definition, adolescents are people becoming someone else.

The legal system acknowledges adolescents diversity and transitional state. Notably, it varies legal ages at which adolescents can undertake adult responsibilities sufficiently to support assumptions that they can control their own rights. When it does so, the system presumes that adolescents are less in need of adults protections, able to engage in freedoms that adults have, and can be held accountable for their actions. The legal system does so, for example, when it recognizes that some adolescents have capacities and responsibilities similar to those of adults or when it recognizes that adolescents actions are similar to those of adults.
