Böcker i Interdisciplinary Approaches to Knowledge and Development-serien

This book examines and reinvigorates interest in the core assumptions and features of a constructivist approach to the study of adolescent development. An interdisciplinary and international set of contributors highlights the importance of considering how adolescents coordinate different types of activities in their interactions and in development.

The contributors to this volume provide insight into developmental well-being by examining the ways that culture and context affect outcomes associated with various types of risk, such as those related to oppression, academic performance, family background, life histories, physical health, and psychiatric conditions.
