Adolescence is the unique developmental bridge between childhood and adulthood, traditionally spanning the ages of 10 to 19, though newer definitions often extend into the mid-20s. It is characterized by profound transitions in biological, cognitive, and psychosocial domains as individuals begin to discover their identity and prepare for adult roles. This period is marked by high neuroplasticity, making it a time of both extreme vulnerability to mental health issues and significant opportunity for positive growth and resilience. Quick Facts
Major causes of death and injury include road accidents, suicide, and interpersonal violence. Stages of Development
Generally 10–19 years, though developmental changes continue until approximately 24–25 years.
