  • Human adolescence: life history, evolution, and health = Človeška adolescenca: zgodovina življenja, evolucija in zdravje
    Bogin, Barry
    In this chapter, human adolescence is considered from a life history approach to the study of human growth and development. In general, social mammals have three basic stages of postnatal ... development: infant, juvenile, and adult. The human life cycle, however, is best described by five stages: infant, child, juvenile, adolescent, and adult. It is hypothesized that the new life stages represent feeding and reproductive specializations of the genus Homo. This chapter also takes a biocultural perspective of human development, a perspective that focuses on the constant interaction between genes and hormones within the body and the sociocultural environment that surrounds the body, which takes place during all phases of human development. Research showshow the biocultural perspective enhances our understanding of human development. Also discussed are the risks ofčthe new stages of human development, especially adolescence. Culture change during the last century ormore seriously impacts the evolutionary biology and psychology of adolescence. School-based programs far educational and social support may be the best way to reduce risks to adolescents. New biocultural research on humangrowth and development is needed to provide the most appropriate and effective programs. It is hoped that the findings of such research may help bring aboul peaceful improvement in the social, economic, and political conditions of life and will lead to good growth for gll human beings.
