Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 7
Abstract
Adolescence refers to the intervening period in life that stands between childhood and adulthood. The teenage years from 13 to 19 constitute the time of adolescence. It is characterized by wide range of physical, psychological and social changes. It‟s the time when security and carefree time of childhood comes to be replaced with insecurity and instability in life. Adolescence finds himself confronted with many new problems. He has to adopt himself to various emotional and physical changes that are taking place on the one hand and on the other he has to adjust to the changing social reality of home, school and society. Adolescence is usually considered the period of storm and stress. Recent studies have shown that even other periods of life have their own challenges. The adolescence needs to achieve in certain developmental tasks. In the psycho-analytical theory, major tasks of adolescences include establishment of a new balance between id and ego forces. Freud (1958), Erikson (1954) and psycho-analytic theorists assert that one of the major goals of adolescence is the establishment of ego identity. White (1952) identified four major growth trends which are characteristics of adolescent period, namely; i. stabilization of ego identity , ii. deepening of interests, iii. feeling of personal relationship , and iv. humanizing of values.
