introduction-摘要frm adolescent psychology

延續上一篇:]

--criteria for determining adulthood:
1)self-responsibility
2)independent decision making
3)economic independence
(難怪我一直懷疑自己到底是不是長大了阿,因為還沒有達到以上標準,所以還不算:P好好享受當adolescent的時光吧!)

--psychology had became an overly grim science in which people were too often characterized as being passive victims.
Psychologists are now calling for a focus on the positive side of human experience and greater emphasis on hope,optimism,positive indibidual traits....etc.(對呀!人也有光明的一面的呢!喔,好想去學positive psychology喔~)

--Adult often potray today's adolescent as more troubled,unnerving,less respectful,more self-centered..than they were.(都是對年輕一代的刻板印象啊!)
It is enourmous error to confuse adolescents' enthusiasm for trying on new identities and indulging in ocassional episodes of outrageous behavior with hostility toward prarental and societal standards.(come on,just give us some time to try it!!!dont be criticism~)

--Growing up has never been easy.(do u agree?)

--the transition between adolescent and adulthhood can be long one as adolescent develop more effective skills to become full members of society.(現在當大人越來越不容易了,因為要求的東西更多了阿!)

--emerging adult-->exploring which career path they want to follow,what they want their identity to be,and which lifestyle they want to adopt.(18-25歲,include me!)
