Article summary with How youth get engaged: Grounded-theory research on motivational development in organized youth programs by Dawes and Larson - 2011 - Exclusive

Introduction

Dawes and Larson (2011) explore the crucial yet understudied question of how young people become genuinely engaged in organized youth programs (OYPs). They challenge the assumption that intrinsic motivation is a pre-requisite and argue that motivation can be fostered within programs themselves.

Methodology

  • The study employs grounded theory methodology, involving qualitative analysis of longitudinal interviews with 100 ethnically diverse youth (14-21 years old) participating in various urban and rural arts and leadership programs.
  • The analysis focuses on narratives from 44 participants who reported experiencing a "turning point" in their motivation or engagement within the program.

Article summary with Risk, adaptation and the functional teenage brain by Sercombe - 2014 - Exclusive

Introduction

Sercombe (2014) explores the intersection of risk-taking behavior, neural development, and adaptation in the teenage brain. He challenges traditional views that solely attribute teenage risk-taking to impulsivity or immaturity, arguing that it should be understood within the context of ongoing brain development and adaptive functions.

Methodology

The article relies on a review and synthesis approach, drawing on existing research in cognitive neuroscience, psychology, and anthropology to examine:

  • Neural correlates of risk-taking and decision-making in adolescents.
  • Evolutionary and adaptive perspectives on risk-taking behavior.
  • Cultural and social contexts influencing adolescent risk-taking.

Article summary with Are adolescents less mature than adults? by Steinberg a.o. - 2009 - Exclusive

They argue that maturity varies across domains and contexts, and simple comparisons often overlook key developmental changes unique to adolescence.

  • Review of existing research: Drawing on diverse literatures in psychology, neuroscience, and law to understand different aspects of maturity (e.g., decision-making, risk-taking, emotion regulation).
  • Analysis of legal contexts: Examining how legal systems treat adolescents differently based on assumptions about their maturity.
  • Presentation of developmental principles: Highlighting specific cognitive and neural changes

Article summary with Gifted students by Worrell a.o. - 2019 - Exclusive

This study explains the concept of gifted students and the problems regarding their education in the United States. The definition of a gifted student is a student that excels particularly in a specific area in comparison to their peers. It has been recognized that these students need special education in order for them to use their potential. However, there are many contradictions and challenges surrounding their educational needs. The first problem is the lack of state funding.  Furthermore, there are different models that determine whether or not a child is gifted.

Then, the ways gifted students are identified will be explained, followed by an overview of existing programs for them. Then, several unresolved issues will be listed. Finally, a conclusion will be drawn about the current
