| Summary |
"Challenge and conflict seem to be an integral part of adolescent life. This intriguing book includes both recent research, presented here for the first time, and summaries of earlier major studies of adolescence. Morality, gender, family contexts, and social change are examined in a cross-cultural study of personality development in adolescence. Norwegian findings challenge some American findings, but overall there are more transcultural similarities for the internalization of personality structure."--Publisher description |
