Document Summary

For adult life stages there are no clear age divisions that mark the end of one and the beginning of another. Across various studies young people from their early teens to their late twenties agreed the most important markers of their transition to adulthood are: accepting responsibility for oneself, making independent decisions, and becoming financially independent in that order. Marriage is a social event rather than an individual, psychological process and it represents the establishment of a new network if relationships with all the kin of one"s marriage partner. Emerging adulthood is the life stage of peak physical functioning in terms of strength, stamina, reaction time, and athletic performance. During young adulthood, physical functioning remains high and a time when the immune system strong and susceptibility to disease is low. Young adults are also less likely than emerging adults to engage in risky behaviours such as unprotected sex and excess substance abuse.
