SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"This volume considers the processes through which societal changes exert an impact on the course of adolescent development and on adolescents' social and psychological adjustment. Additionally, several chapters identify individual and contextual factors that can modify the impact of social change and enhance the likelihood of a successful transition to adulthood. Chapter authors include social scientists from Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States."--Jacket.
