As a major economic, relational, and identity resource, communication is crucial to the well-being and success of young people. And yet adolescents are typically characterized in the media as inadequate communicators, whose language practices adults bemoan as unintelligible and deleterious. In looking to critique these pervasive stereotypes, the editors of Talking Adolescence have brought together some of the world's leading experts on youth and adolescence, whose interdisciplinary research demonstrates how communication powerfully structures and meaningfully facilitates the lives of young people. Adding to the growing literature on intergenerational and lifespan communication, Talking Adolescence is the first substantive volume devoted to young people.
Individuals of all ages interact with one another, and their
interactions have significance throughout their lives. This
distinctive volume acknowledges the importance of these
interactions and provides a life-span developmental view of
communication and aging, attempting to capture the many
similarities and changes that occur in people's lives as they age.
The authors move the study of intergenerational contact closer to
the actual participants, examining what happens within
intergenerational interactions and how people evaluate their
intergenerational experiences. The volume concentrates on the
micro-context of the intergenerational interaction and the
cognitions, language, and relationship behaviors related to
intergenerational communication across the life span.
