Early adolescence is a crossroads in women's psychological development.
A study explored girls' development and its implication for the psychology of women. From 1986-1990, nearly 100 girls between the ages of 7 and 18 at the Laurel School for Girls in Cleveland, Ohio, were interviewed. In addition to traditional psychological research methods, a new method was implemented to help interpret the interviews. The book concludes with a notes section, a reference section containing 143 references, and an index. Return to Books Page.
