White matter in learning, cognition and psychiatric disorders. (2008, neutral): “Incomplete myelination of the forebrain until the early twenties has been suggested as a neurological basis for weaker decision-making skills in adolescence [ 17 ].”
Future farmers: youth aspirations, expectationsand life choices (2010, background): “This suggests full maturity of the prefrontal cortex – where ‘rationality’ is believed to reside – does not happen until adulthood, around the age of 25 (Giedd, 2004).”
Longitudinal changes in grey and white matter during adolescence (2010, positive): “The relatively small number and restricted age range of our adolescent subjects precluded detailed statistical analysis, although it appears that our findings relate to the latter half of growth curves normally observed during childhood and adolescence (Giedd, 2004; Giedd et al., 1999).”
Longitudinal magnetic resonance imaging study of rhesus monkey brain development (2006, background): “studies in humans showed that the maturation of both grey and white matter continues through the late teens to early twenties together with maturation of cognitive functions and socioemotional behaviour (Giedd, 2004; Paus, 2005).”
Emotion Dysregulation and Adolescent Psychopathology: A Prospective Study (2011, background): “The prefrontal cortex undergoes considerable remodeling during adolescence, particularly in regions known to be associated with emotion regulation (e.g., the anterior cingulate cortex) (Cohen, 2006; Giedd, 2004).”
The Role of the Family Context in the Development of Emotion Regulation. (2007, background): “For example, Gilliom et al. (2002) found that secure attachment at age one and a half predicted effective ER at age three.”
Evolving knowledge of sex differences in brain structure, function, and chemistry. (2007, background): “Understanding of sex differences in the developing human brain is rapidly increasing (23,29,30).”
Adolescent cortical development: a critical period of vulnerability for addiction. (2007, background): “Human magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies have demonstrated an inverted U-shape change in the gray matter volume during adolescent period, with a pre-adolescent increase followed by a post-adolescent decrease (Giedd et al., 1999; Giedd, 2004).”
Adolescence as a sensitive period for spiritual development. (2008, background): “Researchers have suggested recently that the prefrontal cortex, which controls self-regulatory capacities such as impulse control, planning, and foresight, may not be fully mature until young adulthood (Giedd, 2004; Hooper, Luciana, Conklin, & Yarger, 2004; Luciana, 2006).”
Adolescence as a neurobiological critical period for the development of higher-order cognition (2018, neutral): “…higher order cognition—undergo continued structural and functional maturation during adolescence, including gross morphology, connectivity, and task-induced activation (Giedd, 2004; Gogtay et al., 2004; Luna et al., 2010, 2015; Marek et al., 2015; Simmonds et al., 2014; Sowell et al., 2004).”
Triadic model of the neurobiology of motivated behavior in adolescence (2005, background): “However, in view of their roles in adult depression (Drevets, 2003) and their developmental changes observed during adolescence (Giedd, 2004), these areas are also likely to contribute to the observed increase incidence rates of depression during adolescence.”
The Adolescent Brain (2008, background): “Data from recent longitudinal MRI studies indicate that the change in gray matter volume over time has an inverted U-shape pattern and has greater regional variation than white matter (Giedd 2004; Gogtay et al. 2004, Sowell et al. 2003, 2004).”
Astrocytes promote myelination in response to electrical impulses. (2006, background): “Myelination is a highly regulated developmental process, but it also takes place postnatally and continues into early adult life (Yakovlev and Lecours, 1967; Giedd, 2004).”
