The study was conducted on 600 Indian adolescents with an aim
to understand the various psychosocial variables which predict high
or low identity achievement, moratorium, foreclosure, and diffusion
in adolescents. Extended Objective Measure of Ego Identity Status-2
(Bennion & Adams, 1986); Emotional Autonomy Scale (Steinberg &
Silverberg, 1986); Family Environment Scale-Forn R (Moos &
Moos, 1986); California Psychological Inventory (Gough, 1975);
Terrance Test of Creative Thinking (Torrance, 1966); and Standard
Progressive Matrices (Raven, 1983), were used. Discriminant
analyses revealed that variables predicting higher identity
achievement, higher moratorium, lower diffusion, and lower
foreclosure scores were emotional autonomy, family environrnent
characterized by cohesion, positive interpersonal relationships,
encouragement for personal growth and organisation, personality
patterns portraying interpersonal]intrapersonal maturity, character,
achievement potential and superior intellect modes, and cognitive
patterns. However, lower identity achievement, lower moratorium,
and higher diffusion scores are predicted by conflict in the family and
fluency of ideas on creativity tasks.
