Cateva precizari

Date statistice la nivel de grup versus

predictii pentru un caz individual

Nivel mediu versus extreme

Vulnerabilitate generala versus

vulnerabilitate in anumite situatii

Maturizarea reproductiva si
maturizarea comportamentala
sunt doua procese distincte, cu
mecanisme neurobiologice diferite si
timing diferit, dar care sunt intim
cuplate prin interactiuni iterative intre
sistemul nervos si sistemul hormonilor
steroizi gonadali (Sisk & Foster, 2004, p.
1040)

Adoles sunt vulnerabili la

Arousal ridicat/emotii intense
Prezenta colegi sau loialitati
Situatii care necesita abilitatea crescuta de
detectare si evaluare optiuni
Situatii care necesita anticiparea
consecintelor pe termen lung
Absenta supervizarii din partea unor
adulti semnificativi
Situatii in care nu e timp pentru a delibera

Adoles PLUS adversitate inalta

Risc pentru reglare emotionala dificila, in
special sub stres
Accentuarea cautarii de senzatii
Reduce anticiparea rezultatelor
Accentuarea asumarii de riscuri
Scade inhibitia impulsului

=> Rate crescute de anxietate, depresie,

probl de comp si consum substante
