Сам по собі процес перетворення юнаків у спортсменів веслувальників є довго етапним і займає роки. Найбільш вдалий вік для початку занять веслувальним спортом є 14–16 років. У цей період закладаються основи майстерності, юні спортсмени отримують спеціальні навички, активно вдосконалюють техніку веслування, натомість, саме у цей період з підлітками відбуваються складні фізіологічні та психічні

For undergraduate populations, binge drinking is a common practice and risky drinking behaviours such as these have been associated with negative consequences for individuals and society. This thesis aims to gain a better understanding of young peoples’ decisions to binge drink using a social psychological perspective. Two online (N=229 and N=313) and one lab-based (N=122) longitudinal and experimental studies use quantitative methods to gather data on the binge drinking behaviour of undergraduate students at an English university, using questionnaires based on an expanded Theory of Planned be

Objective: Adolescence is a period of crucial neuropsychological development. Executive control functions (ECF) develop during adolescence and are constructs involving the planning, initiation, and regula¬tion of goal-directed behaviour. ECFs include impulse control critical for behavioural regulation. Training approaches for improving inhibitory control (IC) and impulsivity in young people (YP) are in their infancy, although some positive effects have been found in adults.

New Deal for Young People was hailed as the Labour government's flagship' initiative when it was introduced nationally in April 1998.

It is especially pertinent to young people from minority ethnic groups who have been identified as having an increased tendency to be unemployed.
