The Continuum

The article presents the results of a study of the procedural characteristics of life choices by young people. The choices of life are choices of lifestyle, career and other significant. For each of the life choices, the process characteristics are considered, which reflect confidence, independence, awareness of choice and expressed in the self-esteem of respondents. The procedural characteristics are analyzed in connection with the maturity of the personality, which determines their specificity for each of life’s choices. Personal maturity is considered as a specific phenomenon, the structure of which is reflected by the integrity of interconnected components, including value-motivational, emotional-volitional, reflective, operational components. Types of personality maturity are distinguished on the basis of the content of each of the components and are considered in the continuum “personality maturity - personality immaturity”. Empirically studied and disclosed are the features of the process characteristics of each of the life choices of young people, depending on the severity and types of their personal maturity. It is empirically established that the severity of the procedural characteristics of each of the life choices is due to the type of maturity or immaturity. Each of the life choices of young people was considered in the context of maturity.

High Schoolers

This study examined the self-reported masturbatory experiences of high schoolers and the relationships between masturbation and sexual intercourse and personal characteristics of these young people. A total of 436 suburban Australian adolescents between 15 and 18 years of age participated. Boys were more likely to report ever having masturbated (58.5% versus 42.7%) and to have done so more frequently than girls (38.2% versus 8.7% reporting masturbating three or more times a week). While there was no significant sex difference in the age of initiation of masturbation, there was some evidence that girls began masturbation earlier than boys. Whether sexual intercourse replaced or supplemented masturbation as a sexual practice could not be resolved, but there was evidence that masturbation was positively correlated with sexual self-esteem. Young people whose parents provided a more open environment for the discussion of sexuality were more likely to report having masturbated, although the environment had a complex relationship with masturbatory practices as did young people's self-rated physical maturity compared to their peers. A range of social and contextual factors must be explored to understand more fully this important component of young people's sexual experience.

The Relationship

The main objective of this research consists in studying psychosocial aspects of the relationship that is established between the level of the quality of self image and self-esteem in adolescents. Self-esteem play an important role in the self image of teenagers and young people. Teenagers with a high level of self-esteem have clear and stable views about themselves, talk about them in a consistent, positive way. Teenagers with a low self-esteem have the feeling that they do not know too well each other and talk about them in a unreliable and ambiguous way. They are also pretty reserved in initiating social contacts.

And Gender

Analysis of the responses of 139 male and 83 female Lithuanian 12-14 year-olds to a translation of the Self-Description Questionnaire-1 (SDQ-1; Marsh, 1988 ) supported the internal consistency and factor structure of this instrument. Some evidence of a “positivity” response bias was found, however. Comparison of the Lithuanian responses to those of like-aged Australian, Chinese, Filipino, Nepalese, and Nigerian children indicated the Lithuanians tended to report rather lower self-esteem. The Lithuanian males also tended to report lower self-esteem than their female peers. Interpretation of the results are considered in terms of reactions to the recent upheavals in Eastern Europe, stable cultural dimensions, and possible cultural and gender biases in the items of the SDQ-1.
