Funded Activity Summary

Pathways to positive personal and social adjustment in early adulthood: a follow-up of the Australian Temperament Project longitudinal cohort. Young adulthood today is characterised by delayed independence and family formation, extended attachment to peer culture, and relatively high levels of alcohol and drug use and mental health problems. Concerns are voiced about the capacity of this generation to become healthy and productive members of society. Examining the development of healthy young adulthood within this large longitudinal cohort will enable pathways and predictors of positive development from infancy through adolescence to be identified. It will hence allow identification of potential targets for policies and interventions to enhance the development of productive personal capacity, responsible social participation, compassion and trust.
