Which of the following statements concerning emerging adulthood is accurate?

Emerging adulthood is a period, typically spanning the late teens through the twenties, when people continue exploring work, relationships, and personal values. These experiences mean identity formation is often still underway, so the accurate statement is that individuals in emerging adulthood are often still engaged in identity formation processes. The other choices mischaracterize the period: it is not a label for developmental delay, and behavior is not generally more stable than in middle adulthood.
