    The nervous system undergoes critical changes during adolescence, including the brain reaching its full weight and electroencephalographic rhythms shifting to adult patterns. Sensory systems also mature, with kinesthetic memory maturing at age 12, motion senses completing maturation between 10-14, visual perceptual judgments maturing at 11, and spatial awareness developing the ability to use a natural frame of reference by age 12.
