Within a decade after fully developing, the humanbrain 🧠 begins shrinking — often once a person reaches their 30s. And by the time they hit 60, the rate of shrinking has increased even more.
Namely, stronger connections gradually begin to form with the prefrontal cortex. Though, the exact timing and development process varies from person to person.
This process explains why some childhood behaviors are often attributed to the still-developing brain. And that neurological reality correlates with societal age restrictions on things like drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes and renting a car.Angela Griffin, a neuropsychologist at Southampton Children’s Hospital in the U.K.
Griffin’s review explains that during the teen years, brain connections between the hippocampus and frontal areas are strengthened, enabling youth to become gradually better at integrating memory and experience into their decision making.put it, cognitive control refines “the ability to resist temptation in favor of long-term goals.”also highlighted how risk-taking behavior can be beneficial to brain development.
The challenge, however, is to avoid risks and behavior that pose significant or long-term negative consequences — such as . That’s where parental or caretaker guidance and influence can play an important role for children and teens.
