Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Genevieve is in the age period of emerging adulthood, which is typically characterized as the period between adolescence and young adulthood (roughly ages 18 to 25-30). This is a time of exploration, identity formation, and transition into adult roles and responsibilities. Living with her parents while finishing graduate school is a common experience for many emerging adults. "Young-old" refers to individuals in their 60s and 70s, "psychological" is not an age period, and "normative" does not fit the description of Genevieve's situation.
