Sorry but that study you stated, is as likely as true as the junk science study that an extra y Chromosome on a human being would make them more likely to be a serial klller. The Underdeveloped Teenage Brain thing, is an extension to the old "Teenagers aren't smart" stereotype. A thing that has been going on since the early 50s. With that said take her age out of the equation and she's been in Yomi North longer than Kouichi. She heard the rumors and was well aware of the risks one has to take to do something as dangerous as stopping a force of nature bent on killing you. She didn't even take it lightly when she nominated herself, she understood that people might die whether she did anything or not. And yet when people start dying she practically throws a fit.

One other thing, she's a year shy of being legal age to drive, a practice that does require a fully developed brain to operate a vehicle while at the same time keeping your eyes on the road.
