@live1234561 There is not an exact age at which all young people hit puberty. It varies greatly. So often today, we are finding that kids are hitting puberty at much younger ages. I remember all the biases adults held towards me growing up simply because of my age when I was much younger and all the false assumptions they made. And you know what, no one is ever fully grown-up because there is no end to maturity.

This research is completely biased. Just because a young person's brain is not fully developed doesn't make them incapable of solving problems and thinking like an "adult". There is this stigma that exist today that all teenagers are at risk and we make false assumptions based on inaccuarate research like this. Adolesence today is exaggerated and has gone too far. Look up the following words: Adultism, Ageism, and Adultcentrism. There is so much I want to say but I will stop here...

Why is it okay to make gross generalizations by way of age? If we made them about race would it be acceptable? I'm skeptical of pseudo-scientific opinions by lab coated men masquerading as scientists. Preconceived prejudice play a big part in their theories. I can tell you that my mind was much sharper and more adept at 20 years old than it is now at 53.

@heyitsmebrian Thats just plain wrong, i'm an education major so ive had a lot of instruction telling me otherwise.
im assuming that you are still an adolescent, I am 21 so i am as well. But it is scientific fact that yuor brain isnt fully developed until i think 25. and after that you can still of course learn new stuff. Its not saying hey your dumb until your adult, but rather you havent reached your potential, and many teens are smarter then many adults. But smarter doesnt mean that you are more advanced in this aspect.
