Young adulthood is a period of life characterized by the transition from adolescence to adulthood, typically spanning from ages 18 to 30. This stage is marked by significant physical, emotional, and social changes as individuals establish their identity, pursue education or career goals, form relationships, and navigate independence from their families. Research in the area of young adulthood may explore topics such as mental health, identity formation, decision-making, risk-taking behaviors, and the impact of social environments on development during this critical period of life. Studies in this area seek to better understand the challenges and opportunities faced by young adults as they navigate the transition to adulthood.
