Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research has shown that adolescents take longer to retrieve information from memory compared to young adults. While they can learn and recall information as efficiently as adults, there is a slower speed of processing. Adolescents are also still developing their cognitive abilities, which can affect their attention, decision-making, and judgment. However, there is not enough evidence to suggest that adolescents are less efficient at deep processing or more likely to use effective memory strategies.
