Young people are expected to learn academic or technical knowledge
in a manufacturing economy, which can be referred to as hard skills
(for example, to produce a car through assembly lines). In many
countries today, countries have been shifting from a manufacturing
economy to a service economy, which has resulted in young people
expecting to gain skills that are non-technical and widely
transferable to different settings. This skills are referred to as
soft skills, which are basically related to the qualities of an
individual. In this book, the authors include several chapters on
soft skills development in adolescents with particular reference to
Chinese culture. This book includes conclusions based on the data
collected from the third year of the community-based P.A.T.H.S.
Project in Hong Kong. It also discusses dreams, aspirations, hopes
and related constructs in Chinese adolescents. Additionally, the
authors also present chapters on the relationships between
pornography consumption and positive youth development qualities;
and the last few chapters document attempts to promote soft skills
in university students. With the emergence and consolidation of a
service or knowledge-based economy, the desired qualities in
adolescents have changed. Obviously, soft skills development plays
an important role in the employability of young people. It is also
vital to the complete development of young people as individuals in
the present and future.
