Abstract

This article focuses on the importance of age (or lived time) to the comprehension of adolescents’ daily behavior. T~me is essential to the integral process of human development, that is, there are different forms of exchange between the being and diverse concepts of time, such as: time that passes away, time that lasts, lived-time, psychological time. Adolescence and adolescents
are themes widely discussed,- and it is impossible to understand these stages of life in among themselves, not only because they developed from precedent stages, but also, they have a strong
meaning to the ones that will follow. The younger the person is, the more conjuctural the construction of the present. To measure that he/she achieves more experiences, taking in account
longer and lasting perspectives, he/she gradually transforms himself/herself from a conjunctural to a structural being The more frequent these experiences are at the beginning stages of adolescence, the more circumstantial is the way he/she lives and uses his/her present in the selfconstructión process.
