過去の経験の想起数と青年期後期の自我同一性の感覚の関連

抄録

This study examined the relationship between the number of past experiences participants recalled and the sense of ego identity in older adolescents. Participants were 370 undergraduate and graduate students, who described as many as possible past experiences, and completed items about feelings of success in the experiences, the duration of the experiences, and the Multidimensional Ego Identity Scale. Multiple regression analysis showed an association between the number of past experiences the participants recalled and Psychosocial Identity. There was an association between the ratings of feelings of success and Self Identity, Interpersonal Identity, and Psychosocial Identity, and also between the duration of the experiences and Self Identity.
