What criteria should be used to determine when adolescence ends? Why are they important? Is there an upper age limit to adolescence?

This is one of those questions about which experts might disagree, and which also will have different answers depending on the culture in question. A standard textbook on child/adolescent development will answer these questions, giving you a sense of the range of answers.
