The process in which young people make the transition to adulthood may be considered a developmental process with at least two aspects. On the one hand, such a process necessitates a newly mature sense of one’s own identity, which in turn entails a rede?nition of the roles one plays socially, particularly with regard to new social groups. On the other hand, adulthood means acquiring new skills, knowledge, and know-how, all of which the young adult will need in order to play new social and professional roles. These two aspects of becoming an adult have traditionally been studied separately: School, the place where skills are acquired, is the focus in some studies; and social groups, wherein young people develop their sense of identity and social skills, are the focus in other studies. Some innovative studies have addressed both issues concurrently, however, showing that socialization and the construction of identity may also take place at school (Coulon, this volume) and that social groups often allow young people to acquire certain complex skills (Heath, Hundeide, this volume).
