自1960年以来，受教育时间延长以及结婚和生儿育女年龄推迟的人口趋势导致18-29岁这一新的生命阶段的兴起，在发展心理学中，这一年龄段现在被广泛称为成年期。在这篇评论中，我们提出了一些人口的新兴成年在高收入国家的普及高等教育和父母的时间。我们研究了几个地区成年初显的特征（重点是心理健康的影响），包括美国成年初显的独特特征，欧洲的失业，以及日本向更大的个人主义的转变。
Since 1960 demographic trends towards longer time in education and late age to enter into marriage and of parenthood have led to the rise of a new life stage at ages 18-29 years, now widely known as emerging adulthood in developmental psychology. In this review we present some of the demographics of emerging adulthood in high-income countries with respect to the prevalence of tertiary education and the timing of parenthood. We examine the characteristics of emerging adulthood in several regions (with a focus on mental health implications) including distinctive features of emerging adulthood in the USA, unemployment in Europe, and a shift towards greater individualism in Japan.
