ABSTRACT
It is surprising that in spite of the large number of excellent works which have been published on the affective and social life of the adolescent—we hardly need remind the reader of the studies of Stanley Hall, Compayré, Mendousse, Spranger, Charlotte Bühler, Landis, Wayne Dennis, Brooks, Fleming, or Debesse, or those by psychoanalysts such as Anna Freud and Helene Deutsch, and by sociologists and anthropologists such as Malinowski and Margaret Mead, not to mention others—so little work has appeared on the adolescent’s thinking.
