Directions for Youth Development, Number 136
Book description
Take an in depth look at how emotions relate to adolescents' decision
making, reasoning, and behavior in morally relevant situations. It
provides a summary of current research on emotions, morality, and
adaptive behaviors. Furthermore, it discusses new approaches to
research on emotions, morality, and socially adaptive behavior in
adolescence. By doing so, the articles provide new insights into
adolescents' emotional and moral development and show how emotions
contribute to the way adolescents negotiate, resolve, and adapt to the
moral and social conflicts that inevitably occur in their everyday
lives. By integrating innovative perspectives from developmental,
educational, and clinical research, this volume has much to offer for
researchers, youth practitioners, and educators.
This is the 136th volume of
New Directions for Youth Development, the Jossey-Bass
quarterly report series dedicated to bringing together everyone
concerned with helping young people, including scholars,
practitioners, and people from different disciplines and professions.
