Adolescence is one of the most rapidly changing periods of the lifespan. This course will cover the fundamentals of psychological development during adolescence by exploring how the psychological, biological, and social changes that occur across this timeframe impact the development of the self, identity, and relationships. We will explore how these changes are tied to psychopathology, risk behaviors, and positive development during adolescence, and how development during the adolescent period sets the stage for functioning in adulthood.
