In the onset of puberty adolescence experiences raging and intemperate behavior. Some time sudden outburst of emotions that end to an inappropriate ferocious behavior. Touch has a eminent role for improving cognition, psychological wellness and physical growth. Our experience to Physical stimulus is linked with various neurological pathways which carriers signals from external environment to the central nervous system and there are underline mechanism of every aggressive behavior that includes prefrontal lobes, neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopaminergic system plays a crucial role for expression of aggressive behavior. It's also shown touch deprived childhood cause led to violent behavior later in adolescence. Touch deprivation causes the delays in psychological growth and cognitive development; it may cause behavioral problems later in life.

Abstract


In the onset of puberty adolescence experiences raging and intemperate behavior. Some time sudden outburst of emotions that end to an inappropriate ferocious behavior. Touch has a eminent role for improving cognition, psychological wellness and physical growth. Our experience to Physical stimulus is linked with various neurological pathways which carriers signals from external environment to the central nervous system and there are underline mechanism of every aggressive behavior that includes prefrontal lobes, neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopaminergic system plays a crucial role for expression of aggressive behavior. It's also shown touch deprived childhood cause led to violent behavior later in adolescence. Touch deprivation causes the delays in psychological growth and cognitive development; it may cause behavioral problems later in life.
