[43 pages]
[40 pages]
Neither adolescent nor adult, a new phase of development called emerging adulthood is now used to denote this in-between time of life. The papers in this section place emerging adulthood in a historical context and discuss the external and internal processes that contribute to (or, help or hinder) a young person’s movement through this new developmental phase.
