Springer Book on Well-Being
Well-Being of Youth and Emerging Adults across Cultures.
Novel Approaches and Findings from Europe, Asia, Africa and
America
Editor: Dimitrova, Radosveta (Ed.)
http://www.springer.com/us/book/9783319683621
The current volume presents new empirical data on well-being
of youth and emerging adults from a global international
perspective. Its outstanding features are the focus on vast
geographical regions (e.g., Europe, Asia, Africa, North and
South America), and on strengths and resources for optimal
well-being. The international and multidisciplinary
contributions address the complexities of young people's
life in a variety of cultural settings to explore how key
developmental processes such as identity, religiosity and
optimism, social networks, and social interaction in
families and society at large promote optimal and successful
adaptation. The volume draws on core theoretical models of
human development to highlight the applicability of these
frameworks to culturally diverse youth and emerging adults
as well as universalities and cultural specifics in optimal
outcomes. With its innovative and cutting-edge approaches to
cultural, theoretical and methodological issues, the book
offers up-to-date evidence and insights for researchers,
practitioners and policy makers in the fields of
cross-cultural psychology, developmental science, human
development, sociology, and social work.

provides a platform for an
in-depth, comprehensive examination into
some of the key factors that seem
to be influencing young people as they enter
into and progress through the
third decade of life and the multiple ways
in which they may flourish or
flounder. The guidelines for author
submissions can be found
here. In
addition, Dr. Nelson (larry_nelson@byu.edu)
is happy to discuss possible
book ideas prior to the proposal being
formally submitted and to provide
additional details about the series and/or
submission process. You can find
