How does puberty affect personality?
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: The teen years bring many changes as children go through puberty and, physically at least, begin to resemble adults. Personality changes but not all that much. Studies have found that both boys' and girls' openness to experience increases between ages 11 and 18. Many teens play around with intellectual ideas—they debate politics with their friends, explore ideas about religion, and grapple with philosophical questions.
