ABSTRACT:

Everyone seems to have an opinion about how teens today fundamentally differ from previous generations as a result of digital media expansion and other forces of globalization. Few research studies, however, have investigated this empirically by simultaneously tracking developmental and cultural change over time. In this talk, Dr. McKenzie will summarize early findings from field research tracking stability and change in adolescent practices and values in Chiang Mai and Mae On over the course of 12 years. Focusing on media use, core moral values, and orientations toward Buddhism, this interactive seminar aims to offer both a wide-reaching and targeted overview of how globalization alters - and does not alter - the development of Thai adolescents.
