The current study explored the associations between activity-based identity experiences and youth outcomes. Participants were 107 high school students and one parent or guardian of each from three communities in a Northeastern state. Youth completed a measure of activity-based identity experiences (Personally Expressive Activities Questionnaire (PEAQ) [Waterman, A. S. (1990). Personal expressiveness: Philosophical and psychological foundations. Journal of Mind and Behavior, 11, 47-74]), as well as measures of psychological well-being, substance use, and delinquency. Parents completed the Child Behavior Checklist [Achenbach, T. M. (1991). Manual for the Child Behavior Checklist/4-18 and 1991 profile. Burlington, VT: University of Vermont Department of Psychiatry]. Together, three identity experiences derived from the PEAQ, personal expressiveness, goal-directed behavior, and flow, were significant predictors of adolescent-reported delinquency and well-being. Goal-directed behavior also uniquely predicted adolescent-reported delinquency and well-being. Suggestions for future research and potential implications for intervention are discussed.
本研究探讨了基于活动的身份体验与青少年发展结果之间的关联。参与者为来自美国东北部一个州三个社区的107名高中生及其一名家长或监护人。青少年完成了一项基于活动的身份体验测量(个人表达活动问卷(PEAQ)[沃特曼,A.S.(1990年)。个人表达:哲学和心理学基础。《心智与行为杂志》,11,47 - 74]),以及心理健康、物质使用和犯罪行为的测量。家长完成了儿童行为检查表[Achenbach,T.M.(1991年)。《儿童行为检查表/4 - 18及1991年简表手册》。佛蒙特州伯灵顿:佛蒙特大学精神病学系]。综合来看,从PEAQ得出的三种身份体验,即个人表达、目标导向行为和心流,是青少年报告的犯罪行为和幸福感的重要预测因素。目标导向行为还独特地预测了青少年报告的犯罪行为和幸福感。文中讨论了对未来研究的建议以及干预的潜在影响。
