How does the experience of emerging adulthood differ between developed Asian countries and those in Europe?

What will be an ideal response?


In Europe, young adults focus on individualism. In Asia, the emphasis is on collectivism and family obligations. So, self-development takes on different roles. For example, in Asia, a young adult would want to do well in school and work in order to provide for their family, not to get ahead and be independent, as they might in a European country.
