Executive Function: Implications for Education. NCER 2017-2000. (2016, background): “…adolescent development emphasizes the imbalance during adolescence between a relatively well-developed emotional reactivity system and a relatively immature prefrontal 15 cortical system associated with EF skills (e.g., Casey et al. 2008; Crone and Dahl 2012; Ernst 2014; Steinberg 2010).”
Self-regulation in childhood as a predictor of future outcomes: A meta-analytic review. (2020, background): “The potential dimensionality of self-regulation is captured in the dual systems model (Steinberg, 2010) that distinguishes between volitional and impulsive processes, and whether assessment measures are capturing constructs that are meaningfully distinct is an important question for research…”
Assessing the Effect of Routine Activity Theory and Self-Control on Property, Personal, and Sexual Assault Victimization (2012, background): “…perceived increased risk but demonstrated a decrease in strategies designed to protect and/or avoid Internet victimization (for related discussions surrounding risk taking as informed by cognitive perceptions of risk and neurological maturity, see Steinberg, 2008, 2010; Steinberg et al., 2008).”
The effects of poor quality sleep on brain function and risk taking in adolescence (2013, background): “Dual system theories of adolescent neurodevelopment posit that risk taking increases during adolescence due to a competition between two neural systems— the affective system, which is involved in reward sensitivity, and the cognitive control system, which is involved in cognitive regulation (Somervi”
The Effect of Video Game Competition and Violence on Aggressive Behavior: Which Characteristic Has the Greatest Influence? (2011, background): “…puberty, leading to increases in reward seeking, need for novelty and stimulation), and a slower maturing self-regulatory system (hypothesized to be led by the prefrontal cortex, responsible for planning, judgment, and inhibition, which may not be fully mature until the mid 20s; Steinberg, 2010).”
Personality and Risk Taking (2015, background): “…bottom-up affective – motivational processes versus still immature (prefrontal) top-down cognitive control processes (Gladwin et al., 2011; Somerville et al., 2010; see also Blakemore and Robbins, 2012; Crone and Dahl, 2012; Ernst and Fudge, 2009; Steinberg, 2010; Reyna and Farley, 2006).”
Legal Cynicism, Legitimacy, and Criminal Offending (2011, background): “Recent research shows that although impulsivity, a key dimension of self-control, begins to decrease at age 10, teens in their midadolescence are more prone to risk taking (Steinberg, 2010; Steinberg, Cauffman, Woolard, Graham, & Banich, 2009).”
Affective Determinants of Health Behavior (2018, background): “With the onset of puberty, testosterone rises, which has been associated with an increase in dopamine in the midbrain and at a behavioral level with sensation seeking (Steinberg, 2010) and risk taking (Peper, Koolschijn, & Crone, 2013).”
The dual systems model: Review, reappraisal, and reaffirmation (2015, neutral): “Using the same data set, Steinberg (2010) also found that self-reported sensation seeking, but not impulsivity, was associated with overall rate of plays from rewarding decks at the end of the task.”
