Styles of identity formation in early to middle adolescence were explored. Reconceptualizing Marcia's paradigm (1966, 1980), styles of identity formation are regarded as nonexclusive dimensions that are manifest in both the interpersonal and the intrapersonal domains. A heterogeneous sample of 878 Israeli and British high school students of both sexes and from different socioeconomic backgrounds participated in the study by responding to a 70-item questionnaire. Discriminant analysis was used to identify the features of identity diffusion, foreclosure, and moratorium and form the basis of profiles characterizing each style. These profiles reflect coherent and differentiated styles of development in adolescence. Case examples illustrate the essence and complexity of these styles. A separate style of development, the evolutive style of identity formation, is identified and briefly discussed. Research is presented that provides further validation of the model.
研究探讨了青少年早期到中期身份形成的方式。重新审视了马西亚的范式(1966年,1980年),身份形成方式被视为非排他性维度,体现在人际和个人领域。来自不同社会经济背景的878名以色列和英国男女高中生组成的异质样本参与了这项研究,他们回答了一份70项的问卷。判别分析用于识别身份扩散、封闭和延缓期的特征,并形成描述每种方式的概况基础。这些概况反映了青少年发展中连贯且有差异的方式。案例说明了这些方式的本质和复杂性。确定并简要讨论了一种单独的发展方式,即身份形成的演化方式。文中还介绍了为该模型提供进一步验证的研究。
