The New Life Stage - Emerging Adulthood | Psych-100 | Chapter 43 | Flourish with Diane Planidin
Emerging adulthood has been proposed as a new life stage between adolescence and young adulthood, lasting roughly from ages 18 to 25. Five features make emerging adulthood distinctive: identity explorations, instability, self-focus, feeling in-between adolescence and adulthood, and a sense of broad possibilities for the future. Emerging adulthood is found mainly in industrialized countries, where most young people obtain tertiary education and median ages of entering marriage and parenthood are around 30.
There are variations in emerging adulthood within industrialized countries. It lasts longest in Europe, and in Asian industrialized countries, the self-focused freedom of emerging adulthood is balanced by obligations to parents and by conservative views of sexuality. In non-industrialized countries, although today emerging adulthood exists only among the middle-class elite, it can be expected to grow in the 21st century as these countries become more affluent.
This episode will help you:
-Explain where, when, and why a new life stage of emerging adulthood appeared over the past half-century.
-Identify the five features that distinguish emerging adulthood from other life stages.
-Describe the variations in emerging adulthood in countries around the world.
