Teens' brain development is shaped not just by academic performance but also by their ability to engage in transcendent thinking, making connections between stories and reflecting on big-picture issues.
Transcendent thinking involves moving beyond the current context, building a bigger story, and grappling with psychological meanings and implications that go beyond immediate circumstances.
Researchers found that transcendent thinking, rather than just academic success, was prevalent among the teens studied, indicating its importance in setting the stage for a fulfilling adulthood.
