Based on the trends derived from a series of mixed-method studies with adolescent girls and boys, and parents from urban upper middle class families, it explores adolescents’ and parents’ interpretations of the stage of adolescence, illustrates views on parenting, and discusses approaches to interpersonal disagreements to derive a framework of the parent-adolescent relationship. Drawing from the cultural-contextual perspective of human development, the book in its essence offers a culturally and contextually sensitive model of adolescence that is shaped along the central tenets of family interdependence, harmony, and sensitivity to parental concerns. Highlighted as well are aspects that have remained mostly unexplored, for example, adolescents’ capacity for empathy and perspective taking, and emerging issues of autonomy in a primarily relational culture. At a broader level, the book reflects upon the interplay of cultural continuity and change, and contributes to an understanding of globalizing influences on human development. Overall, the depiction of adolescent development captured in the book has significant implications for enhancing family relationships and fostering self-growth—elements that are crucial for positive youth development. The book will be of immense use to scholars in human development, psychology, and allied fields as well as to practitioners who work with adolescents.Developmental psychologyChildrenAdolescenceEducational psychologyEducation—PsychologyDevelopmental Psychologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20010Childhood, Adolescence and Societyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22090Educational Psychologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O39000Developmental psychology.Children.Adolescence.Educational psychology.Education—Psychology.Developmental Psychology.Childhood, Adolescence and Society.Educational Psychology.155Kapadia Shagufaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut766708BOOK9910254799703321Adolescence in Urban India1560304UNINA
