An introduction to development during the teenage years (12-18). The course will cover research on biological, cognitive, social, and emotional development. Topics will include pubertal development and its social consequences, changing relationships with parents, identity development, the increasingly important role of peers, school adjustment, the emergence of psychopathologies, and high risk behaviors such as substance use. The course will focus on normative development in the U.S., but it will also cover cross-cultural development.
