i mean, it's devpsych, so "documented" means like. someone came up with this schema at some point to make sense of the process. piaget, in this case. it reflects what humans expect out of each other at those stages, at the time it was conceived.

Adolescence involves rapid development & social transitions, including a heightened sensitivity to social value.

Dr. Dahl emphasized the opportunity we have to support positive identity development while promoting prosocial behaviors that combat negative social comparisons.

New paper from @tashaunalb.bsky.social, Roger Strong, and me! We find that the ability to split attention between non-contiguous locations develops quite late - between 6 and 8 years of age! Now out in APP. #visionscience #psychscisky #devpsych link.springer.com/epdf/10.3758...
