What insight does that provide you regarding the importance of researching and understanding that variable?
Puberty
As you read in this unit, puberty is a complex interplay between the biological, behavioral, psychological, and cultural. For this discussion:
- Create a fictional example of the reciprocal influences of biological, behavioral, psychological, and cultural changes occurring in puberty, then change one of those variables. For example, describe a female undergoing late puberty who is beginning to engage in dating relationships; then, change or add a factor (perhaps the family adheres to a very strict code of sexual behaviors for women).
- How might that single variable change the outcomes of puberty in that adolescent’s life?
- What insight does that provide you regarding the importance of researching and understanding that variable?
