Abstract

Objectives: Identity development has long beenacknowledged as a central psychosocial task for adolescents. In recent years it is suggested that identity development starts during adolescent years but it has beencompleted throughout "emerging adulthood" period.Although the relationship between identity status andvarious psycho-social variables have been well-documented the relationship between identity status withthose of individualization during emerging adulthoodhas not been studied. Thus, the first aim of the presentstudy is to investigate individualization types in emerging adulthood and its relationship with identity status.Method: A total of 700 individuals from two differenteducational background participated in the study (university students n=343 and "forgotten half" n=357). Ofthese 37.9 % (n=265) were male and 62.1% (n=435)were female. The age of the participants ranged from 19to 26 with a mean of 23.5 (SD=1.4). "The Ego IdentityStatus Scale" and "Multi-Measure Agentic PersonalityScale" were utilized. Frequency and percent analysis, ttest, MANOVA and cluster analyses were the primary statistics. Results: The results demonstrated that there weretwo individualization types namely developing individualization and default individualization during transitionto adulthood, and identity status differed according toindividualization types. Conclusion: The results are discussed in relation to the contribution of individualizationtypes to the identity status for Turkish emerging adults
