The physical effort, in its different aspects, has permanently conditioned the development of the human being. By means of doing physical exercise, the human beings expresses themselves and are trained. In the process of personality formation, the age of adolescence, including the prolonged adolescence, is very important. This age is characterized by the elan of the body, the elan of the heart, the birth of the personal thinking and the discovery of the world of values (after Debesse, M. quoted by Epuran, M., Horghidan, V., 1994), being the period when the personality affirms and confirms its value. Adolescence is an extremely demanding period both on the physical and psychical level. The study tackles female highschool adolescents and female students. The female adolescents, mainly those starting their student life, have to prove and also to prove to themselves the fact they are efficient, productive, well trained professionals, they have a good social image, allowing them to integrate in a different society groups. The present paper tries to set an existent connection between practising sports activities and becoming aware of the emotions by the female adolescents. The research starts from the premise stating that by means of these activities the female adolescents can increase their adaptive capacity and can control more efficiently the emotions emerging as a consequence of the harmful influences of a civilisation characterized by nervous exhaustion. Emotional intelligence includes 4 types of abilities: to perceive emotions, to use, to understand and manage emotions.

The paper explores theoretical and methodological aspects of transition to adulthood. The concept is discussed within the framework of life course paradigm. The concept of transition to adulthood is operationalized as four dimensions: family transition, professional (career) transition, financial status transition and housing transition. We discuss in detail the process of becoming an adult in Serbian society. The thesis of specific type of transition to adulthood, named prolonged adolescence, has been fully examined. The analysis is based on data collected in a survey (2003) of young people aged 17-35. In the paper we focus on the sub sample of respondents aged 34-35 being a post-transitional cohort. The 34-35 cohort trajectory to adulthood is explored as an indicator of general trend in transition to adulthood in a period of radical social turmoil. .
