Publisher's Synopsis
The way identity influences the way adolescents make decisions and cope with stress is one of the topics explored in this thought-provoking volume.
The contributors examine the processes of identity formation, social and behavioural outcomes and management, social contextual factors and issues of alternative conceptualizations and measurement. They also address subjects such as women′s identity and Erikson′s notions of inner space, a multidimensional approach to ethnic identity and the influence of cognitive identity styles on ways in which adolescents cope with stress.
