The most intellectually fertile period of a human being is ....................... .

Educational psychology texts describe adolescence as the most intellectually fertile period: abstract reasoning develops (Piaget's formal operational stage begins at about 11 or 12), along with imagination, curiosity, idealism and the capacity for hypothetical thinking. It is the age when interests and talents become clear and learning capacity is at its most expansive.
Childhood thinking is still concrete, adulthood consolidates what has been formed rather than opening new capacities, and old age typically brings a decline in fluid intelligence.
