在过去的二十年里，对大脑发育的理解以及环境输入和背景的重要性有了实质性的发展。本文关注的是发生在我们称之为“过渡年龄大脑”（13-25岁）时期的神经发育不匹配以及附带的行为相关。我们总结了支持这一论点的研究结果，即由于这种神经发育不匹配，过渡年龄的年轻人从事导致负面结果、发病率和死亡率的行为的风险很高。我们强调需要开发新的，神经科学启发的健康促进和疾病预防方法过渡年龄的青年。
Over the past two decades, there have been substantial developments in the understanding of brain development and the importance of environmental inputs and context. This paper focuses on the neurodevelopmental mismatch that occurs during the epoch we term the 'transitional age brain' (ages 13-25) and the collateral behavioral correlates. We summarize research findings supporting the argument that, because of this neurodevelopmental mismatch, transitional age youth are at high risk for engaging in behaviors that lead to negative outcomes, morbidity, and mortality. We highlight the need to develop new, neuroscience-inspired health promotion and illness prevention approaches for transitional age youth.
