title: Anxiety in early adulthood.
abstract: There is no doubt that the relatively recent changes in our society must have effects on the development of the early adult. These include changes in society's attitudes, permissiveness, changing roles, equal employment and wage opportunities, women's liberation, the 'single mother by desire', changing divorce laws, integrated university colleges of residence, to mention but a few factors. The effects of drugs, illegal and legal, alcohol, the motor vehicle, pollution and environmental change must also be remembered as possible sources of anxiety in early adulthood.
