Abstract

ABSTRACT Forming an identity is a critical developmental task that is affected by important people in an individual’s social environment, such as friends and family members. This investigation compared whether autonomy support from different sources (family/peer) given in distinct contexts (personal goals/crises) was associated with identity exploration and commitment in university students over an 8-month academic year. The study used a five-wave prospective longitudinal design with identity measured at baseline and termination. Participants were asked to name two individuals who supported them during personal goal pursuits and two who supported them during times of crisis. Supporters were sorted into convoys of family and peers. Results showed that perceiving autonomy support during crises from both sources was associated with an increase in identity exploration, suggesting that family members and peers may play an important role during crises and in promoting identity exploration. By contrast, only family autonomy support for goals was related to greater identity commitment, suggesting that perceiving autonomy support from family in distinct circumstances may encourage different aspects of identity development. Basic need satisfaction mediated the relation between family autonomy support for goals and identity commitment and between family (but not peer) autonomy support during crises and identity exploration.

在起起伏伏中导航:在身份发展的个人目标和危机中提供同伴和家庭自主支持
摘要形成身份是一项关键的发展任务,它受到个人社会环境中重要人物(如朋友和家人)的影响。这项调查比较了来自不同来源(家庭/同伴)在不同背景下(个人目标/危机)给予的自主支持是否与大学生在8个月的学年中的身份探索和承诺有关。该研究采用了五波前瞻性纵向设计,在基线和终止时测量了同一性。参与者被要求说出两名在追求个人目标时支持他们的人和两名在危机时期支持他们的个人。支持者被分成由家人和同伴组成的车队。结果表明,在危机期间,从两个来源获得自主支持与身份探索的增加有关,这表明家庭成员和同龄人可能在危机期间以及促进身份探索方面发挥重要作用。相比之下,只有家庭对目标的自主支持与更大的身份承诺有关,这表明在不同的情况下感知来自家庭的自主支持可能会鼓励身份发展的不同方面。基本需求满足介导了家庭对目标的自主支持和身份承诺之间的关系,以及危机期间家庭(但不是同伴)的自主支持与身份探索之间的关系。

期刊介绍: Work on self and identity has a special place in the study of human nature, as self-concerns are arguably at the center of individuals" striving for well-being and for making sense of one"s life. Life goals develop and are influenced by one"s view of what one is like, the way one would ideally like to be (or would like to avoid being), as well as one"s perceptions of what is feasible. Furthermore, conceptions of self and the world affect how one"s progress towards these goals is monitored, evaluated, redirected, re-evaluated, and pursued again. Thus, the “self” as a construct has far-reaching implications for behavior, self-esteem, motivation, experience of emotions and the world more broadly, and hence for interpersonal relationships, society, and culture.
