Description
Summary:"This advanced textbook presents a constructivist approach to the development of rationality, morality, and identity in adolescence and early adulthood. It provides a review of post-Piagetian approaches to adolescent cognition, examining classic theories and current research in these three domains. In addition, it highlights the capacity of constructivist theorizing to address issues of human diversity and the implications of a constructivist perspective for secondary education. Accessible even to students with no background in psychology, Adolescent Psychological Development will also be of interest to scholars who study the development of rationality, morality, and identity, especially those concerned with the interrelations among these domains and with the nature of psychological development beyond childhood."--Jacket.
