Sexuality in Adolescence: The digital generation de Meredith Temple-Smith

Sexuality in Adolescence: The digital generation: Adolescence and Society

Autor Meredith Temple-Smith, Susan Moore, Doreen Rosenthal
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 aug 2015
Sexuality in Adolescence: The Digital Generation provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of research and theory about adolescent sexuality in today’s world. The book examines biological, social and health-related approaches and reviews qualitative and quantitative research from psychology, sociology, epidemiology and medicine, emphasising the interplay between perspectives and privileging the voices of young people as they discuss the joys and pains of sexual awakening. The focus is on understanding healthy sexual development and its many variations, but problems and issues arising as young people make their journey to adult sexuality are also considered.
The book presents global research on many key issues of our time, including the impact of media and technology on adolescent sexuality, changes in adolescent sexual behaviors and beliefs, sexual risk taking, sex education, and teen pregnancy and abortion. This fully revised and updated third edition of Sexuality in Adolescence also addresses the crucial issues of sexual diversity, sexual safety and sexual communication, including coercion, peer pressure and double standards.
In Sexuality in Adolescence: The Digital Generation, the authors aim to promote sexual wellbeing, and argue for the importance of the adolescent period as a time for engendering healthy sexual attitudes and practices. This book will be valuable reading for students in the social, behavioural and health sciences who are interested in adolescent development and the topic of sexuality, as well as for professionals working with young people and families.

Recenzii

'This book is a remarkable achievement. The authors draw on over two decades of intimate involvement with sexuality research to paint a vivid picture of the diverse sexual lives of adolescents. They powerfully demonstrate that despite the complexities brought by the digital revolution, the search for identity and intimacy remains a timeless and fundamental quest for young people everywhere'. - Jayne Lucke, Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society, La Trobe University, Australia
'Two decades after the first edition, the third edition of this book is needed more than ever. So much has changed in adolescent sexuality—the role of social media, views of sexual diversity, norms regarding what counts as consent—and research has told us a great deal in the past 20 years about the changes as well as about the enduring complexity of the experience of reaching sexual and reproductive maturity. This book covers it all, and expands its scope to include not only adolescence but emerging adulthood (ages 18-24). It is an important synthesis of what we know, and essential reading for researchers, teachers, policy makers, and others who care about this crucial arena of young people’s lives'. - Jeffrey Jensen Arnett, Clark University, USA author of Emerging Adulthood: The Winding Road from the Late Teens Through the Twenties
