Zusammenfassung:Research on development during adolescence has flourished in the past decade, as scholars from many disciplines focused their attention on phenomena of maturation within different social contexts. This volume includes approaches from a variety of social science disciplines investigating adolescent transitions in three domains: the peer system, the family system, and school and work contexts. Different modes of investigation (e.g., survey research and ethnographic studies) and varieties of transitions that different adolescents experience add to the richness of the research tapestry presented. In addition to their focus on research, the chapters reflect recent advances in how adolescent transitions are conceptualized, strategies for interventions, and policy implications.
