Being Adolescent: Conflict and Growth in the Teenage Years - Paperback
by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (Author), Reed E. Larson (With)
To find out what teenagers' lives are like, two psychologists gave beepers to seventy-five adolescents, signaled them at random, and asked them to record their thoughts and feelings as they sat in classrooms, socialized with friends, and ate dinner with their families. The result is a unique and detailed portrait of the day-to-day world of the average American teenager that offers valuable new insights for parents, psychologists, and educators.
