About

Adolescent communication is the academic field dedicated to investigating the patterns, processes, and functions of communicative interactions engaged in by individuals during the adolescent developmental period. This research examines how adolescents exchange information, express identity, build relationships, and navigate social environments across various modalities and social contexts. It investigates the dynamics of communication within peer groups, families, schools, and digital spaces, exploring the development of communication skills and the role of communication in identity formation, social influence, and well-being. Key characteristics include its sensitivity to developmental stage and social context, the increasing complexity of social networks, and the significant influence of mediated communication technologies, rendering its study critical for understanding adolescent psychosocial development and informing interventions.
