The Relationship

The study reported here investigated the relationship between individuals' perceptions of their families' functioning and of their own emerging identity. Individuation from the parents is closely intertwined with identity formation; families supportive of young people's separation and individuation more often have identity-achieved young people. 83 college students responded to an assessment of their perceptions of their families in 10 areas related to goals, separateness of family members, and over-all functioning. They also responded to the Extended Version of the Objective Measure of Ego Identity Status of Bennion and Adams. Correlations among family dimensions and the identity status scales indicate family factors were related to identity status in the following ways: Little conflict predicted the foreclosure identity status for both sexes. Identity achievement is related to aspects of family functioning differently for the two sexes. Indeed, gender-related aspects of family functioning best predict identity status. Valuing independence and achievements predicts men's identity achievement and emotional expression predicts women's identity achievement. Lack of family integration is related to the diffusion status in both sexes.

The Relationship

The purpose of the present study is to analyse the relationship between identity status and self-efficacy. The statistical population included all graduate students employed at the Training Centre of Ayatollah Khatami in the city of Yazd in 2009. The sample consisted of 122 students who were selected by convenience sampling. The chosen research method is descriptive correlational. Bennion and Adams’ Extended Objective Measure of Ego Identity Status and the Self-Efficacy Scale were used for measuring the identity statuses and self-efficacy. The results of this study show that there is a positive significant relationship between achieved identity status, self-efficacy (p < 0.01) and diffused identity; there is a negative significant relationship between diffused identity status and self-efficacy (p < 0.05); and there is a negative significant relationship between foreclosure identity status and self-efficacy (p < 0.01). According to this study, for providing qualified forces, the training centres can employ forces by detecting identity statuses and self-efficacy of volunteers.   Keywords: Identity, identity status, students, self-efficacy.
