Chapter 1 Introduction
Adolescence, 13th Edition, is a window into the nature of adolescent development—
your own and that of every other adolescent.
In this first chapter, you will read about the history of the field, the characteristics of today’s adolescents, both in the United States and the rest of the world, and the
way in which adolescents develop.

Historical Perspective
• Early HistoryIn early Greece, the philosophers commented about the nature of youth.
Plato (4th Century BCE)
Aristotle (4th Century BCE)
In the Middle Ages, children and adolescents were viewed as miniature adults and were subject to harsh discipline.
In the 18th Century, the French philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau offered a more enlightened view of adolescence.

Historical Perspective
Stereotyping of AdolescentsA Stereotype is . . .
A generalization that reflects our impressions and beliefs about a broad category of people.
All stereotypes carry an image of what the typical member of a particular group is like.

Historical Perspective
• Some Stereotypes of Adolescents:
• “They say they want a job, but when they get one, they don’t want to
work.”• “They are all lazy.”• “All they think about is sex.”• “They are all into drugs.”• “The problem with adolescents today is
that they all have it too easy.”• “They are so self-centered.”

Historical Perspective
Stereotyping of AdolescentsJoseph Adelson (1979)
• Coined the term adolescent generalization gap.• Refers to generalizations that are based on
information about a limited, often highly visible group of adolescents.

Historical Perspective
A Positive View of Adolescence• The negative stereotyping of adolescents is overdrawn.
(Balsano & others, 2009; Lerner, Roeser, & Phelps, 2009).
Old Centuries and New Centuries• Psychologists are now calling for a focus on the positive side of
human experience and greater emphasis on hope, optimism, positive individual traits, creativity, and positive group and civic values, such as responsibility, nurturance, civility, and tolerance. (Gestsdottir & Lerner, 2008).
Generational Perceptions and Misperceptions• Adults’ perceptions of adolescents emerge from a combination
of personal experience and media portrayals, neither of which produces an objective picture of how typical adolescents develop. (Feldman & Elliott, 1990).

Today’s Adolescents in the United Statesand Around the World
“Growing up has never been easy.”
• The developmental tasks today’s adolescents face are no different from those of adolescents 50 years ago.
• For a large majority of youth, adolescence is not a time of rebellion, crisis, pathology, and deviance. Rather it is a time of evaluation, decision making, commitment, and finding a place in the world.
• Socioeconomic, ethnic, cultural, gender, age, and lifestyle differences influence the developmental trajectory of every adolescent (Conger & Conger, 2008).

11
Social Contexts
• Contexts are the settings in which development occurs.
• Contexts are influenced by historical, economic, social, and cultural factors.
• Each adolescent’s development occurs against a cultural backdrop of contexts that includes family, peers, school, church, neighborhood, community, region, and nation, each with its cultural legacies (Parke & others, 2008; Taylor & Whittaker, 2009).

Social Policy and Adolescents’ Development
Social policy A national government’s course of
action designed to influence the welfare of its citizens.
Currently, many researchers are attempting to design studies whose results will lead to wise and effective social policy decision making (Eccles, Brown, & Templeton, 2008)

15
The Global Perspective
Youth Around the World
• Two-thirds of Asian Indian adolescents accept their parents’ choice of a marital partner for them.
(Verma & Saraswathi, 2002).
• In the Philippines, many female adolescents sacrifice their own futures by migrating to the city to earn money that they can send home to their families.
• Street youth in Kenya and other parts of the world learn to survive under highly stressful circumstances. In some cases abandoned by their parents, they may engage in delinquency or prostitution to provide for their economic needs.
• In the Middle East, many adolescents are not allowed to interact with the other sex, even in school (Booth, 2002).

16
The Global Perspective
Youth Around the World
Rapid global change is altering the experience of adolescence, presenting new opportunities and challenges to young people’s health and well-being.
Around the world, adolescents’ experiences may differ depending on their gender, families, schools, and peers (Brown & Larson, 2002; Larson & Wilson, 2004).

The Global Perspective
Brad Brown and Reed Larson (2002) summarized some of these changes and traditions in the world’s youth:
• Health and well-being• Gender• Family• School• Peers
Adolescents’ lives are characterized by a combination of change and tradition.

36
Evaluating the Developmental Issues
• It’s unwise to take an extreme position on developmental issues.
• Nature and nurture, continuity and discontinuity, and early and later experience all affect our development throughout the human life span.
• The above consensus has not meant the absence of spirited debate.

Psychoanalytic Theory
Freud
Defense Mechanisms• Unconscious methods the ego uses to distort
reality and protect itself from anxiety.
• Examples: Repression and regression.
• However, Peter Blos (1989), a British psychoanalyst, and Anna Freud (1966), Sigmund Freud’s daughter, believed that defense mechanisms provide considerable insight into adolescent development.
(Continued from previous slide)
Copyright © 2010 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved.McGraw-Hill
43
Psychoanalytic Theory
Revisions of Freud’s Theories
• Contemporary psychoanalytic theorists believe that he overemphasized sexual instincts.
• They place more emphasis on cultural experiences as determinants of an individual’s development.
• Unconscious thought remains a central theme, but most contemporary psychoanalysts argue that conscious thought plays a greater role than Freud envisioned.
(Continued from previous slide)
Copyright © 2010 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved.McGraw-Hill
44
Evaluating Psychoanalytic Theory
• Contributions of psychoanalytic theories include an emphasis on a developmental framework, family relationships, and unconscious aspects of the mind.
• Criticisms include a lack of scientific support, too much emphasis on sexual underpinnings, and an image of people that is too negative.

45
Erikson’s Psychosocial Theory
• According to Freud, our basic personality is shaped in the first five years of life
• According to Erikson, developmental change occurs throughout the life span.

Cognitive Developmental Theory
• Psychoanalytic theories stress the importance of the unconscious.
• Cognitive theories emphasize conscious thoughts.
• Three important cognitive theories are Piaget’s cognitive developmental theory, Vygotsky’s sociocultural cognitive theory, and information-processing theory.

Sociocultural Cognitive Theory
Vygotsky (1896–1934)
• Cognitive skills can be understood only when they are developmentally analyzed and interpreted.
• Cognitive skills are mediated by words, language, and forms of discourse.
• Cognitive skills have their origins in social relations.
Copyright © 2010 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved.McGraw-Hill
51
Information-Processing Theory
• Emphasizes that individuals manipulate information, monitor it, and strategize about it.
• Robert Siegler (2006, 2009), a leading expert, states that thinking is information processing. When adolescents perceive, encode, represent, store, and retrieve information, they are thinking.
Copyright © 2010 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved.McGraw-Hill
52
Evaluating Cognitive Theories
• Contributions of cognitive theories include a positive view of development and an emphasis on the active construction of understanding.
• Criticisms include skepticism about the pureness of Piaget’s stages and too little attention to individual variations.
Copyright © 2010 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved.McGraw-Hill
53
Behavioral and Social Cognitive Theory
Behaviorism• Essentially holds that we can study
scientifically only what we directly observe and measure.
• Out of the behavioral tradition grew the belief that development is observable behavior that can be learned through experience with the environment (Klein, 2009).
Copyright © 2010 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved.McGraw-Hill
54
Behavioral and Social Cognitive Theory
Skinner’s Operant Conditioning
• The scientific study of observable behavior responses and their environmental determinants.
• Behavior is learned and often changes according to environmental experience.

55
Social Cognitive Theory
Bandura’s Social Cognitive Theory
Fig. 1.12
Copyright © 2010 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved.McGraw-Hill
56
Evaluating Behavioral and Social Cognitive Theories
• Emphasis on scientific research and environmental determinants of behavior.
• Criticisms include too little emphasis on cognition in Skinner’s views and giving inadequate attention to developmental changes.
Copyright © 2010 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved.McGraw-Hill
57
Ecological Theory
Bronfenbrenner (1917 – 2005)
• Microsystem• Mesosystem• Exosystem• Macrosystem• Chronosystem• Bronfenbrenner (2004; Bronfenbrenner & Morris, 2006)
has added biological influences to his theory and describes the newer version as a bioecological theory

59
Evaluating Ecological Theory
• Contributions of the theory include: • A systematic examination of macro and micro
dimensions of environmental systems.
• Attention to connections between environmental systems.
• Criticisms include: • Giving inadequate attention to biological factors. • Too little emphasis on cognitive factors.

Eclectic Theoretical Orientation
Eclectic Theoretical Orientation
• Not following any one theoretical approach, but rather selecting from each theory whatever is considered the best in it.

Research Design
• There are three main types of research design:
– Descriptive– Correlational – Experimental
Copyright © 2010 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved.McGraw-Hill
65
Research Design
• Descriptive research– Aims to observe and record behavior.
• For example, a researcher might observe the extent to which adolescents are altruistic or aggressive toward each other.
– Descriptive research cannot prove what causes some phenomenon
– Descriptive research can reveal important information about people’s behavior.
Copyright © 2010 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved.McGraw-Hill
66
Correlational Research
• Goes beyond describing phenomena.
• Helps us predict how people will behave.
• Describes the strength of the relationship between two or more events or characteristics.
• Correlation Coefficient• +1.00 to -1.00• Negative vs. Positive• Size of the number
• Correlation does not imply causation.

68
Experimental Research
• To study causality, researchers turn to experimental research.
• The cause is the factor that was manipulated.
• The effect is the behavior that changed because of the manipulation.
• All experiments involve at least one independent variable and one dependent variable.
• The independent variable is the factor that is
manipulated. • The dependent variable is the factor that is measured.

Time Span of Research
Cross-sectional research• Research that studies people all at one
time.
Longitudinal research• Research that studies the same people
over a period of time, usually several years or more.
Copyright © 2010 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved.McGraw-Hill
71
Conducting Ethical Research
• May affect you personally if you ever serve as a participant in a study.
• Proposed research at colleges and universities must pass the scrutiny of a research ethics committee before the research can be initiated.
• APA’s guidelines address four important issues:
1. Informed consent
2. Confidentiality
3. Debriefing 4. Deception
Copyright © 2010 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved.McGraw-Hill
72
Minimizing Bias
• Gender Bias
• Culture and Ethnic Bias
• Ethnic Gloss
Copyright © 2010 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved.McGraw-Hill
73
Being a Wise Consumer of Information
• Be cautious of what is reported in the popular media.
• Recognize the tendency to over generalize a small or clinical sample.
• Be aware that a single study usually is not the defining word.
• Remember that causal conclusions cannot be drawn from correlational studies.
• Always consider the source of the information and evaluate its credibility.
