This paper reports an investigation to test the hypothesis that anxiety concerning a concept of the self in the future will increase with age during adolescence, while anxiety relating to the self in the present will not. Subjects included a total of 80 adolescent boys from schools in a working class area of London, divided into three groups of 12-year-olds, 14-year-olds and 16-year-olds. The results strongly substantiated the hypothesis, and are discussed in relation to Erikson's theory of an adolescent identity crisis.
本文报告了一项调查研究，旨在检验以下假设：在青少年时期，对未来自我概念的焦虑感会随着年龄的增长而增加，而对当下自我的焦虑感则不会。研究对象包括来自伦敦工人阶级区学校的总共 80 名青少年男孩，他们被分为 12 岁、14 岁和 16 岁三个年龄组。结果强烈证实了这一假设，并结合埃里克森的青少年身份危机理论进行了讨论。
