“…Studies have also shown that individuals migrate to access better job opportunities [45]. It was observed that the age at which life-course transition occurs had been signi cantly delayed [47,48,49,50]. While an increase in the enrolment to school globally can be attributed to the delay, the ones nishing school may enter the workspace and marital commitment later, pushing themselves into higher education or setting off their career.…”

This scoping review analyses life-course transition as a determinant of migration. Migration paired with life-course transitions has been analysed from developmental psychology and life course perspectives. The context of the review is limited to the contemporary industrialized globalized developed and developing societies in which migration has become prevalent. This review analysed the alignment of life course transition stages and migration, delving into its possible explanations. An increase of migration within emerging adulthood is brought out. The review follows PRISMA guidelines, and the final protocol was registered at Open Science Framework’s open-access registry. The review found that most migrations are aligned with developmental life course transition events, like progression from school to higher education, college to work, or from work to retirement. Steadily increasing migration within the period of emerging adulthood has been identified as being relevant to the psychosocial developmental relevance within the life-course. In addition, the review also indicates that although the mental health and well-being of migrating individuals need consideration at all ages, older adults are at higher risk of both physical and mental health complications.

Introduction. In the modern world, there is an expansion of the spectrum of transition trajectories to adulthood in adolescents and young people as well as the increased importance of “subjective markers of adulthood”, which represent a set of qualities of a “mature personality”. There is no idea about the specifics of the growing up trajectories among modern adolescents, taking into account their psychological characteristics. The purpose of the article is to investigate the quantitative and qualitative indicators of the images “I am now” and “I am an adult” in adolescents with different levels of personal maturity. Materials and Methods. The survey involved 1 097 adolescents aged between 13 – 17. The method of contrast groups by the Self-assessment Scale of personal maturity allowed to identify subgroups of adolescents with high and low levels of personal maturity. The quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the attitudes “I am now” and “I am an adult” obtained by the modified “Who am I?” technique were compared in these subgroups. Results. Regardless of the characteristics of personal maturity, adolescents include more elements in the attitudes “I am now” than in “I am an adult”; the core of both attitudes includes mainly the characteristics of the socio-demographic, formalized and individualized Self. Differences between the subgroups of adolescents with HPM and LPM include: different age dynamics of the number of elements in the attitudes “I am now” and “I am an adult” (a consistent decrease in the number of elements in adolescents with HPM against an absence of significant changes in the sample of their peers with LPM), as well as a more significant contribution of the characteristics of social-role functioning in attitudes “I am now” and “I am an adult” in adolescents with HPM. Discussion and Conclusion. The research contributes to the understanding of the psychological characteristics of modern adolescents who are at the stage of transition to adulthood. The results will be useful for the practice of psychological and pedagogical support of growing up and psychological counseling on personal self-determination in adolescence.
