As discussed on pages 448–451 of your course text, the brain continues to undergo significant physical changes during adolescence. Describe two ways that brain development typically contributes to changes in thinking and behavior as individuals progress through adolescence. Provide two specific examples of how most adolescents think and reason based on the information on pages 485–493 of the course text.

Although identity formation does not begin or end in adolescence, it seems to take on greater importance during this period. Based on the information on pages 513–523 of your course text, explain three reasons why this is so. (Consider the concept of the actual self and possible self; the influences of gender, culture, ethnicity, and sexual orientation; and the development of autonomy during this stage of development.)

When children enter adolescence, many important changes and adjustments occur in their relationships. Review the information on pages 523–5 37 and pages 547–549 in your course text.
