The social re-orientation of adolescence: a neuroscience perspective on the process and its relation to psychopathology
TLDR
A relationship between development of brain physiology and developmental changes in social behavior and dysregulation of the social information processing network in this critical period may contribute to the onset of mood and anxiety disorders during adolescence.

TLDR
This paper focuses on how the social brain develops during adolescence and presents evidence that theory of mind usage is still developing late in adolescence.
Dynamics of male sexual arousal: distinct components of brain activation revealed by fMRI
Areas of brain activation in males and females during viewing of erotic film excerpts
TLDR
The findings reveal the existence of similarities and dissimilarities in the way the brain of both genders responds to erotic stimuli and suggest that the greater SA generally experienced by men, when viewing erotica, may be related to the functional gender difference found here with respect to the hypothalamus.
Brain processing of visual sexual stimuli in human males
TLDR
A model of the brain processes mediating the cognitive, emotional, motivational, and autonomic components of human male sexual arousal is proposed.
What motivates the adolescent? Brain regions mediating reward sensitivity across adolescence.
TLDR
This study shows that in anticipation of uncertain outcomes, the anterior insula is more active in adolescents compared with young adults and that the ventral striatum shows a reward-related peak in middle adolescence, whereas young adults show orbitofrontal cortex activation to omitted reward.

Neuroanatomical Correlates of Visually Evoked Sexual Arousal in Human Males
TLDR
PET identified brain regions whose activation was correlated with visually evoked sexual arousal in males, and activation of some of these areas was positively correlated with plasma testosterone levels.
