I was wondering if there were any articles detailing adolescence or emerging adulthood. I remember getting an articles about the effects of Spongebob on kid's cognitive development to help with my previous paper on appropriate kids shows. They can be from anywhere as long as they detail some cool or interesting stuff about what happens to people around those stages.

This.

It might not be what you're looking for, and it's definitely dated (see the references to My Space), but the conclusions are spot on. The short version of the article is that youth are losing the "public-private" spaces that previous generations enjoyed. You know, the hang-outs that you could go and be with your friends/community or whatever, and be relatively left alone to your crowd.

As such, they've been moving online to create these spaces, forums, My Space, now Facebook, online games, etc.
