What is Adolescent?

Adolescent is a period of transition from childhood to adulthood. The beginning of adolescent is the beginning of puberty. There are some changes in person's body, also psychological or social changes.

Usually this transition lasts from 13th to 19th age of someone's life.

The table below, developed by the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, describes the developmental characteristics of adolescents by sub stage specific to physical, cognitive, and social-emotional development.2 This table illustrates that adolescence is one of the most dynamic stages of human growth and development; and is second only to infancy in the rate of developmental changes that take place. Growing research on the adolescent brain has provided a better understanding of typical adolescent development. Combining what is known about neurological development, in conjunction with physical, cognitive, and social-emotional adolescent development will help AFL staff to better understand and provide “stage-appropriate” guidance to adolescents in their programs.

The next section provides an overview of neurological development and the important structural and functional changes occurring in the brain during adolescence.
