What Characterizes Adolescents Struggling With Educational Decision‐Making?

Abstract: Educational decision‐making is a complex process where individual factors such as how adolescents think about and evaluate themselves could play an important role. In this study, (N = 84), we combined behavioral and neural correlates of self‐concept and self‐esteem to examine what characterizes adolescents who struggle with educational decision‐making. We included 38 adolescents (16–24 years, M = 18.7 years) from “the Gap‐Year program.” This program focuses on personal development for adolescents who have drop… Show more

“…Although very few studies have focused on the neural underpinnings of self-concept clarity ( van der Aar et al, 2019 ; Xiang et al, 2022 ), the first evidence suggest that the mPFC play an important role in maintaining a coherent self-image (for ventral and anterior/rostral mPFC see Elder et al, 2021 ; for precentral gyrus see Xiang et al, 2022 ). Neuroscience studies have examined self-appraisal using trait-evaluation paradigms, by asking participants whether positive and negative trait statements fit with them, in different domains ( van der Cruijsen et al, 2017 , 2018 ).…”

“…Furthermore, early adults show differentiation in self-appraisal across different life domains (e.g., social, physical, academic domain ( van der Cruijsen et al, 2018 ; Van de Groep et al, 2021 ). For instance, young adults generally find positive prosocial traits to be more applicable to self than positive physical appearance traits ( van der Cruijsen et al, 2018 ; van der Aar et al, 2019 ; Van de Groep et al, 2021 ). Moreover, evaluations in diverging domains have also been associated with different neural underpinnings (see van der Cruijsen et al, 2018 ; Van de Groep et al, 2021 ).…”

“…Por otra parte, Suszek et al (2018) conceptualizan al autoconcepto como una creencia consciente de sí mismo que también puede operar a nivel inconsciente. Por esta razón, en la adolescencia, la etapa crucial en el desarrollo es importante dar forma al autoconcepto para tomar decisiones positivas en el marco ético, educativo y personal (Van der Aar et al, 2019 ). La forma en que los adolescentes se evalúan y se ven a sí mismos que desempeña un papel importante en varios resultados de la vida (Van der Aar et al, 2022).…”

“…Possibly, if people with persistent antisocial tendencies are prone to more negative self-evaluations, they show attenuated mPFC activity during self-evaluations ( Herpertz et al. , 2018 ; van der Aar et al. , 2019 ).…”

“…On a neural level, we hypothesized (Hypothesis 2a) that individuals who persisted in antisocial behavior would show less neural activity in the mPFC compared to desisters and the control group in both domains but possibly more evidently in the prosocial domain ( Herpertz et al. , 2018 ; van der Aar et al. , 2019 ).…”
