To elucidate the processes underlying the cultural construction of adolescence, this research examined youth's stereotypes about teens in Hong Kong and Chongqing, a relatively less developed city in Mainland China. Youth ( = 1,269) reported on their teen stereotypes and problem behavior in the fall and spring of 7th grade. Youth in Hong Kong (vs. Chongqing) saw adolescence as a time of dampened family obligation as well as heightened individuation from parents, disengagement from school, and orientation toward peers. The tendency for youth in Hong Kong (vs. Chongqing) to see teens as less obligated to their family and more disengaged from school undergirded their greater problem behavior over the 7th grade, with problem behavior appearing to contribute to the maintenance of the two stereotypes.

为了阐明青少年文化建构背后的过程，本研究考察了香港和重庆（中国大陆相对欠发达的城市）青少年对青少年的刻板印象。青少年（n = 1,269）在 7 年级秋季和春季报告了他们对青少年的刻板印象和问题行为。与重庆的青少年相比，香港的青少年认为青春期是家庭义务减弱、与父母个体化增强、从学校脱离以及与同龄人建立关系的时期。香港的青少年（与重庆的相比）倾向于认为青少年对家庭的义务较少，对学校的参与度较低，这导致了他们在 7 年级时表现出更多的问题行为，而问题行为似乎有助于维持这两种刻板印象。（PsycInfo 数据库记录（c）2020 APA，保留所有权利）。
