Around the World, Adolescence Is a Time of Heightened Sensation Seeking and Immature Self-Regulation
The dual systems model of adolescent risk‐taking portrays the period as one characterized by a combination of heightened sensation seeking and still‐maturing self‐regulation, but most tests of this model have been conducted in the United States or Western Europe. In the present study, these proposit...
