A comparative research was conducted to study the identity
development of young girls belonging to two different cultures i.e.,
Britain and Pakistan. It was intended to observe their identi5'
development in relationship specific domains (i.e., Gender Roles,
Friendship, and Dating), the domains of ideolog (Religious
Ideolou and Politics), and the domain of Occupation. The
purpose was also to observe the ethnic/cultural differences in the
process of identity development. 40 British (white) and 40
Pakistani (immigrant) teenager girls were the sample. Ego Identity
Interview (Grotevant & Cooper, 1981) was used to determine their
level of identity development. The results suggested that more girls
were identity achieved in the relationship domains as compared to
the other domains. Also there were significant differences in the
levels of identity development of both the groups specifically in the
domains of Religious Ideolog.', Dating, and Gender Roles.
Pakistani girls were either diffused or had foreclosed identities in
these areas. Overall, more British girls were identity achieved as
compared to the Pakistani girls. Results were interpreted in terms
of the theory of Self-in-Relation and cultural variability dimension
of Individualism-Collectivism
