{"product_id":"the-science-of-motivating-young-people","title":"The Science of Motivating Young People","description":"Acclaimed developmental psychologist David Yeager reveals the new science of motivating young people in this groundbreaking book. It explains the emerging science of adolescent and young adult brains to show how we can engage, teach, and support young people. Neuroscientists have discovered that around age ten, changes in the brain increase the desire for socially rewarding experiences, such as pride, admiration, and respect, and make young people highly averse to social pain. This sensitivity to status and respect continues into the mid-twenties. The book helps adults use this science to encourage young people and avoid frustrating patterns of miscommunication and conflict. It emphasizes that young people in this age group are capable of learning, growing, and achieving great things if we can tap into the neurobiological systems that drive their motivation and behavior. It offers long-term strategies for nurturing well-adjusted, independent, and accomplished young adults, making it essential reading for parents, educators, and mentors.","brand":"bookshop.lol","offers":[{"title":"Wardah Books","offer_id":42904401444942,"sku":"9781804953969","price":29.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookshop.lol\/products\/the-science-of-motivating-young-people","provider":"bookshop.lol","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
