What is the purpose of G. Stanley Hall's theories about adolescence?

  1. Describe the onset of puberty

  2. Demonstrate the correlation between age and behavior

  3. Explain the impact of culture on adolescence

  4. Demonstrate how desire for independence can be healthy

The correct answer is: Demonstrate the correlation between age and behavior

G. Stanley Hall's theories focus on the correlation between age and behavior, specifically during adolescence. While options A, C, and D may also play a role in understanding this age group, they are not the main purpose behind Hall's theories. His work primarily focuses on the relationship between age and behavior, and how certain behaviors and actions coincide with specific stages of development. Therefore, option B is the best answer as it most closely aligns with Hall's main purpose.
