पर्याय

• Decreased interest in peer groups and increased isolation

• Strong feelings, mood swings, and desire for independence and identity formation

• Complete emotional stability and lack of mood changes

• Immediate achievement of adult-like emotional maturity

Answer 1

During adolescence, individuals typically experience strong emotions with frequent mood swings as their bodies undergo hormonal changes. Adolescents develop a strong desire to find their own identity and achieve independence from parental authority. Simultaneously, peer groups (friends) become increasingly important for social support and identity exploration. These emotional and social changes, while challenging, are essential components of the transition to adulthood.
