Summary
The significant biological, psychological, and social reorganization that occurs across adolescence lays the groundwork for both normative patterns of change as well as emerging individual differences in how youth respond to increasing exposure to stressors in their environment during this formative stage of life. This chapter aims to provide a comprehensive summary regarding changes in the psychological and behavioral components of stress responses across adolescence and the pubertal transition as well as the associated patterns of maturation in relevant physiological systems, including brain structure and function, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, and the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. A focus is placed on understanding both advances in stress responses as well as ways in which stress responses may become disrupted during this critical developmental stage, with an eye toward identifying characteristics of youth or their experiences that predict diverging developmental trajectories in responses to stress during this stage of risk and opportunity.
