The present study aimed to investigate adolescent identity
formation in relation to psychological well-being and parental
attitudes (viz., acceptance, concentration, and avoidance). For this
purpose, a sample of 210 late adolescents (99 boys and 111 girls)
with ages ranging from 17 years to 20 years. They were
administered Extended Objective Measure of Ego Identity Status-2
(Bennion & Adams, 1986), Friedman Well-being Scale (Friedman,
1994), and Family Relations Inventory (Sherry & Sinha, 1987).
Pearson Product Moment correlation analyses revealed that for the
boys’ sample, psychological well-being was positively correlated
with identity achievement while opposite pattern emerged for
diffusion. Avoidant and concentrated parental attitudes have
significant positive correlates with lower identity statuses
(moratorium, foreclosure, and diffusion in either gender). Factor
analyses revealed that identity achievement status clustered both
with parental acceptance and parental concentration on different
factors among boys; girls in lower identity statuses experienced
more avoidant and concentrated parenting.
