Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the context of developmental psychology, which studies how people grow and change throughout their lifespan, including emotional and behavioral development.
Recognize that suicide risk varies across different age groups due to factors like cognitive development, social pressures, and emotional regulation.
Consider the characteristics of each age group: Infancy and early childhood involve limited cognitive and emotional capacity to understand or act on suicidal thoughts.
Late adulthood can have increased risk due to factors like isolation or health problems, but the question focuses on when suicide first becomes a serious problem.
Identify adolescence as the age group where suicide becomes a more serious problem because of increased emotional complexity, identity formation, peer influence, and mental health challenges.
