Why teenage people tend to take risks and tend to be moody and moody?

ByAntoine Gady

Even in the human lifecycle, teenage adolescence is a time of great change, and emotional undulation is also a very aged age. The reason why the teenager 's mood tends to be unstable is that the movie that scientifically explained the brain and body structure analyzed "Why Are Teens So Moody?"is.

It is said that the time important for the development of the brain is mainly 0 to 5 years old. It is because the brain grows rapidly between 0 and 5 years old.


However, recent research has revealed that adolescence between the ages of 13 and 19 is equally important for the development of the brain. In puberty, in the braingray matterWill be made.


When the female is 12 years old, when the man is around the age of 14, the size of the brain becomes almost the same as the adult.


After the brain becomes big enough, unnecessary gray matter gets dropped off to make the brain work efficiently. at the same time,"Myelin sheath(Abortion) "is generated in many cases, and the function to speed up the transmission of electric signals of the brain will develop.


Puberty changes in the body,HypothalamusIt begins with an organ of the interbrain called. First, the protein called "kisspeptin" produced in the hypothalamusPituitary glandIt is carried to.


In the pituitary gland, it is a kind of male hormonetestosterone, Female hormoneestrogen, Has the function of luteinizing hormoneProgesteroneIt is secreted.


With the influence of hormones, ovarian and testicular activities become active, and we will have the second sexual period.


Because hormones also affect emotions, it is likely to suddenly cry after watching a movie or take action like driving a car off the highway. Also, teenagers' brains are more likely to respond to images and music, and it is also a reason why they are crazy about idol groups that combine music and visuals like one direction.


The part of the brain that makes plans and anticipates the occurrence of risk is a developing stage in the period of teenagers.


As a result, teenagers tend to take high-risk actions and often run into reckless acts such as sexual intercourse without contraception, drinking alcohol, runaway in a car. Interestingly, in the experiment using the drive simulator, the probability that an adult and a teenager accident happens is almost the same.


However, driving with a large number of people tends to obstruct the concentration power of young drivers, and it is said that driving becomes dangerous than adults.


The fact that young people are susceptible to the influence of surroundings, on the contrary, means that it becomes easier for young people of the same generation to understand each other. When I conducted experiments to rank my favorite music for teenagers, when I was informed of the songs preferred by young people of the same generation, I liked the taste of my music according to my taste of the same generation It has turned out to tend to change.


Unlike young children and adults, teenagers have the characteristic that they may feel intense as "they are solitary, isolated from society, they are not needed".


The tendency for young people to take care of their friends rather than their families during puberty is based on the biological characteristics of human beings. It is because you have instinct that you jump out of home safely and securely and touch the outside world, mixing with genetically diverse people, preventing inbreeding.


Also, when humans are placed in a stressful environment, they secrete hormones ... ...


We are alleviating the shock of brain cells.


However, in the case of teenagers, when the hormone is secreted under stress, the biological clock will be disturbed, and the life rhythm may be 3-4 hours later than adults.


The teenager has a very good health condition, and the body's immune function is working firmly.


It is easy to respond to changes in temperature, and it is said to be hard to get cancer.


However, despite good health, there are also data that the death rate is higher by 200 to 300% than in the early childhood. The reasons are car accidents, homicides, suicide, and so on.


Many researchers analyze that various problems occur due to changes in brain white matter and gray matter and brain cell-to-cell connections during puberty.


In puberty in the brainSynapseExtremely many bonds occur.


Furthermore,PlasticityBecause it is high, you can learn things quickly and remember. Unlike adult brains whose everyday behavior is routine, the brains of young people can respond quickly to the new environment.


At the end of the movie, "It is not worthwhile for young people to act recklessly and intensely, but we need actions that create changes in our lives and change the lives of people around us," I'm finished.
