  abstract: The need to establish a narrative self reaches an important peak during adolescence as teens work to understand life events and establish their self-identity. The first book to examine narrative development during adolescence in depth, Narrative Development in Adolescence: Creating the Storied Self, focuses on both stable and at-risk youth as they construct, organize, and tell their life stories and link these stories to larger developmental contexts as they grow to maturity.

In addition, these themes are observed as adolescents process and interpret the narratives of others. This volume offers insights into the crucial task of identity development, and explores new possibilities for counseling and therapy. Its authoritative and accessible coverage: Examines the relationships between narrative and developmental outcomes Identifies normative and problematic issues in adolescents across cultures and social backgrounds in the United States, Canada, Germany, the former Yugoslavia, and New Zealand Offers current research on adolescent narrative development, with attention to theoretical bases and methodological issues Discusses the roles of parents, grandparents, and peers in shaping narratives Features case studies of narratives from at-risk youth Includes findings on how early narrative development predicts narrative identifying adolescence Narrative Development in Adolescence is an essential resource for researchers, clinicians, and graduate students in developmental, clinical child, and school psychology as well as allied mental health and education fields. It is a …
