Adolescence may be a global state of mind, recognized as a special stage of life in 176 cultures around the world, but no one is certain yet whether its turmoil is an effect of brain development or a byproduct of the modern youth culture, with its social and legal influences. "We have mapped a lot of what is happening structurally in the brain, but we still don't know the full story," said UCLA psychologist Elizabeth Sowell. "How this all translates into behavior, we just don't know yet."
