Around the world, adolescence is a time of heightened sensation seeking and immature self-regulation.
Open accessAbstract
The dual systems model of adolescent risk‐taking portrays the period as one characterized by a combination of heightened sensation seeking and still‐maturing self‐regulation, but most tests of this model have been conducted in the United States or Western Europe. In the present study, these propositions are tested in an international sample of more than 5000 individuals between ages 10 and 30 years from 11 countries in Africa, Asia, Europe and the Americas, using a multi‐method test battery that includes both self‐report and performance‐based measures of both constructs. Consistent with the dual systems model, sensation seeking increased between preadolescence and late adolescence, peaked at age 19, and declined thereafter, whereas self‐regulation increased steadily from preadolescence into young adulthood, reaching a plateau between ages 23 and 26. Although there were some variations in the magnitude of the observed age trends, the developmental patterns were largely similar across countries.

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
This cross-sectional, 11-country study finds that sensation seeking follows an inverted-U pattern, peaking around age 19, while self-regulation increases into the mid-20s and then plateaus. The broad developmental patterns are largely similar across countries, supporting central predictions of the dual systems model.
Key findings
- In the full sample, sensation seeking increased across adolescence, peaked at age 19, and declined thereafter (linear age \(b = 0.35\), \(SE = 0.15\), \(p = .02\); quadratic age \(b = -0.19\), \(SE = 0.03\), \(p < .001\)); from ages 20 to 30 it decreased significantly (\(b = -2.00\), \(SE = 0.47\), \(p < .001\)).
- Self-regulation increased until the early-to-mid-20s (linear age \(b = 2.60\), \(SE = 0.15\), \(p < .001\); quadratic age \(b = -0.20\), \(SE = 0.03\), \(p < .001\)), peaked at age 24, and did not change significantly after age 25 (\(b = -0.77\), \(SE = 1.40\), \(p = .59\)).
- Country differences were significant for both composites (sensation seeking \(\Delta\chi^2(20) = 46.91\), \(p < .05\); self-regulation \(\Delta\chi^2(20) = 95.76\), \(p < .05\)), but most deviations were differences in degree rather than shape.
- Sensation seeking showed a significant inverted-U pattern in 7 of 11 countries; self-regulation increased significantly with age in 9 of 11 countries, with no systematic age variation in India and Jordan.
Methods
- Cross-sectional multinational sample: final analytic \(N = 5,105\) participants aged 10–30 from 11 countries (China, Colombia, Cyprus, India, Italy, Jordan, Kenya, the Philippines, Sweden, Thailand, and the US); initial sample \(N = 5,404\).
- Multi-method battery: sensation-seeking composite from modified Iowa Gambling Task, 6-item self-reported sensation seeking, and Stoplight game; self-regulation composite from Stroop task, self-reported planning, and Tower of London task.
- Analyses used regression with age and age-squared terms, controlling for parental education and WASI Matrix Reasoning scores, plus multiple-group structural equation models to test country differences; missing data handled with FIML and bootstrapped standard errors.
Limitations
- Stated: recruitment via flyers, schools, ads, and word of mouth meant the authors could not determine whether respondents differed from nonrespondents; they also declined post hoc explanations for unexpected country-level deviations.
- Stated: computerized WASI scores may not be comparable to traditionally administered WASI scores.
- Evident: the cross-sectional design cannot establish within-person developmental change, and measurement invariance was tested only for the self-report scales, not the behavioral tasks.

“Generally speaking, self-regulation develops linearly and gradually over the course of adolescence, reaching a plateau somewhere during the mid-20s, whereas reward seeking follows a ∩-shaped pattern, increasing between preadolescence and late adolescence, peaking around age 19, and then declining as individuals move into and through their twenties.”

The authors state this as an assumption.
Developmental changes and age differences in sensation seeking and self-regulation are linked to changes in brain structure and function that are universal or near-universal features of adolescent development.
“On the one hand, the dual systems view derives explicitly from a neurobiological perspective on adolescence that links developmental changes and age differences in sensation seeking and self-regulation to changes in brain structure and function that are assumed to be universal (or near-universal) features of adolescent development (Spear, 2013).”
The authors state this as an assumption.
Normative maturation of crucial structures of cognitive control systems, such as the lateral prefrontal cortex, plays a significant role in the development of self-regulation between childhood and adulthood.
“Still, normative maturation of crucial structures of these systems, such as the lateral prefrontal cortex, is assumed to play a significant role in the development of self-regulation between childhood and adulthood (Casey, 2015).”
The paper relies on this without support.
Age differences observed in this cross-sectional study reflect developmental change rather than cohort effects.
“The current paper presents the findings of a cross-sectional, multinational, multi-method study of behavioral and psychological development during the second two decades of life in a sample of approximately 5,000 individuals.”
“Using self-report and behavioral measures, we investigated age differences in sensation seeking and self-regulation.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
Within the broad categories of sensation seeking and self-regulation, constructs measured at different levels of analysis or using different methods are often only weakly correlated, but the overarching categories provide helpful heuristics.
“We recognize that, within these broad categories, constructs measured at different levels of analysis, or using different methods, are often only weakly correlated (i.e., it is common to find low correlations between self-report and behavioral measures of putatively similar constructs), but we believe that the overarching categories provide helpful heuristics.”
The paper relies on this without support.
Cross-sectional age differences in the sample reflect developmental change with age.
“Overall, our findings indicate that the developmental patterns in sensation seeking and self-regulation observed previously in American and Western European samples are found in other parts of the world as well”
The paper relies on this without support.
The eleven countries studied are sufficiently representative of the world's cultural and economic diversity to support global conclusions about adolescence.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
