Debating Emerging Adulthood
The transition from adolescence to adulthood has undergone significant changes in recent decades. Unlike a half-century ago, when young people in industrialized countries moved from adolescence into young adulthood in relatively short order at around age 20, now the decade from the late teens to the late twenties is seen as an extended time of self-focused exploration and education in pursuit of optimally fulfilling relationships and careers. Rec…

How universal is emerging adulthood? An empirical example
This paper examined the concept of emerging adulthood as proposed by Arnett, in a purposive sample of Welsh young people (n=38) aged 17–20 years who were working or unemployed (i.e. not in higher education). In this exploratory study, young people were questioned about their lifestyles and their perceptions of 'being adult' in semi-structured interviews lasting about 40 minutes. Results indicated that Arnett's emerging adulthood stage held good f…
Young people's views of their present and future selves in two deprived communities
This study set out to explore the perceptions of young people from two deprived former mining communities in South Wales about their present and future selves. An opportunity sample of 11 teenagers was asked to describe a normal and an ideal day in their lives. Interview transcripts were submitted to a theory‐led analysis to gauge the components of young people's selves and their hopes and fears of the future. Findings indicated diversity in the …
Conceptualizing Emerging Adulthood
Jeffrey Arnett’s concept of emerging adulthood is critically examined by reviewing and evaluating elements of its theoretical framework and by referring to relevant empirical studies, which support the major arguments presented. Several limitations to Arnett’s model are found and an alternative perspective is offered that might complement his stage theory and provide a stronger theoretical baseline for future research.
Belonging or Opposing? A Grounded Theory Approach to Young People's Cultural Identity in a Majority/Minority Societal Context
The present article takes a grounded theory approach in exploring the perceptions of young people about the development of their cultural identity in a setting where they are a geographic majority but a minority population in the wider society. Responses to an essay competition and a series of focus group and individual interviews with teenagers provide the narratives, which are analysed by the authors. Findings reveal a variety of inter-related …
Young People's Leisure and Lifestyles
Young People's Leisure and Lifestyles covers new ground in examining the importance of leisure in the socialization and self-identities of young people. It is in the realm of leisure that young people truly become themselves. Leisure time is the period when difference lifestyles can be tried and exchanged and self and group identities developed.
Adult control and adolescent challenge? Dilemmas and paradoxes in young people's leisure
From the perspective of the Lifespan Model of Developmental Challenge (Hendry & Kloep, 2002), this paper explores the apparent paradoxes between the ideology of protection provided by adult society as part of youth socialization, and young peoples' perceptions of control, challenge and boredom. By caring too much, forever-organizing and over-structuring adolescents' leisure, adults destroy important learning opportunities. Adults often fail to em…
Peripheral Visions? A Cross-cultural Study of Rural Youths' Views on Migration
This study sets out to investigate anticipatory views concerning out-migration amongst rural youth. Utilising three age-group samples from rural Norway, Scotland and Sweden, young people were classified as prospective 'stayers', 'leavers' or 'returners'. Both qualitative and quantitative data show that 'stayers' see themselves as most contented with rurality. 'Leavers' are most negative to rural living. 'Returners', though also critical about rur…
Rural Communities and Well-Being
This study looks at young people's accounts of life in communities in rural northern Scotland, and considers in what ways affective and social aspects of community are bound up with well-being, over and above young people's concerns for the future, rural youth transitions, and out-migration. Interviews were held with 15-18 year-olds in four study areas (16 groups, N = 60+) and a parallel survey of 11-16 year-olds was conducted in eight study area…
Young People Talking About Adolescent Rural Crowds and Social Settings
The present paper sets out to examine rural young people's views of crowds and social settings, and to gauge adolescents' perceptions of adults' attitudes towards them in rural townships. Seventy-three young men and women aged 15/16 and 17/18 years were interviewed in friendship focus groups in five selected rural contexts in northern Scotland. Findings showed that the groups in the study regarded themselves as 'normal' in their dress, interests …
Leisure transitions - a rural perspective
The paper examines leisure focal theory from a cross-cultural perspective by utilizing adolescent samples from rural Norway, Scotland and Sweden. Both quantitative and qualitative methods were used to explore the robustness of the model across countries. Results revealed effects of both culture and rurality on the patterns of adolescents' leisure transitions, and these were discussed in relation to the original theoretical framework
Making sense of mentoring or mentoring making sense? Reflections on the mentoring process by adult mentors with young people
This paper sets out to look at the processes of mentoring from the perspectives of adult mentors who were interviewed as part of a wider study of young people's perceptions and understandings of informal mentoring processes. It seeks to clarify the processes of mentoring within the context of the ‘risk society’ by posing the question, how do young people and mentors perceive these processes? What do mentors get out of the mentoring relationship? …
Youth, Lifestyles and Society
This article sets out to consider the role of social class on present-day adolescents' development by briefly examining adolescents' `lifestyles' in western industrial societies. The article goes on to consider empirical evidence about possible social class influences on various aspects of adolescent socialization in Sweden, Germany and Britain within Abel and McQueen's theoretical framework of `resources', `orientations' and `behaviours'. In par…

Unemployment, school and leisure
This study attempts to provide some insight into the experience of unemployment from the perspective of young people themselves. The school's role in preparing young people for society is considered, and a prospective view of post-school life by pupils in their final year of compulsory schooling is examined. Results indicated that while schools continue to place a stress on vocational preparation, pupils did not appear to believe they had been gi…
Aspects of the Hidden Curriculum
By utilising ideas about the differential effects of the "hidden curriculum", this investigation studied physical education teachers' views of pupils' physical ability and personal qualities, and pupils' perceptions of their teachers, and of themselves. The 2,619 fifteen to sixteen year old pupils selected from twelve Scottish comprehensive schools were categorized as competitive (i.e. they repre sented the school in some form of physical activit…
Individual Pupils' Views on School and Sport. Constructed Case Studies
A method of constructed case studies' was presented as a possible research tech nique, which is compatible to some extent with general statistical analysis and for more open ended enquiry of pupils' interactions with teachers. Some examples of case studies were given, and the technique was discussed and compared with parti cipant observation
Body type, body esteem, school, and leisure
Pupils' Choice, Extracurricular Activities
A problem that has been of some concern to educationalists, headmasters, and teachers of physical education in Britain, is why an increasing number of pupils in secondary schools do not participate in extracurricular physical and sports ac tivities. For example, a recent study of 3000 pupils aged fifteen and sixteen in 15 compre hensive schools in Central Scotland, shows that less than half the pupils — including only 30% of girls — were actively…

Survival in a Marginal Role
Any organization is a mass of integrated roles with constant demands and adaptations.l Role behaviour arises from these organizational demands and idiosyncratic needs, the person balancing advantages and disadvantages in given situations, making adaptation to both personality needs and organizational 'press'.

University Students
S ummary . The extent to which 230 university students following a one‐year psychology course were ‘active’ (i.e., competitively or recreatively involved) in sport or ‘non‐participant’ was compared with their scores on measures of personality, attitude, social class, sex, previous school involvement in sport, and attainment in university course work. Active students were, on average, more stable and extraverted, more likely to have been active in…
