Personal identity processes and self-esteem : Temporal sequences in high school and college students (2013, background): “A recent metaanalysis indicated that, in general, foreclosed and achieved individuals display the highest levels of self-esteem, whereas individuals in diffusion and moratorium display the lowest levels (Kroger & Marcia, 2011).”
Beyond Screen Time: Identity Development in the Digital Age (2020, background): “Balancing agency and communion needs is particularly challenging during adolescence (e.g. Chandler, 1994a, 1994b; Chandler & Lalonde, 1994; Erikson, 1968; Fivush, 2011; Habermas & Bluck, 2000; Kroger & Marcia, 2011), given the myriad biological and social changes associated with this phase.”
Fostering Personal Meaning and Self-relevance: A Self-Determination Theory Perspective on Internalization (2018, background): “…(e.g., when deciding which college studies to embark on), it may be critical for learners to consider their decisions from a broader perspective, thereby, taking into account their future professional identity, long-term aspirations, and personal dreams (Erikson, 1968; Kroger & Marcia, 2011).”
Identities Through Time: An Exploration of Identity Change as a Cause of Desistance (2016, background): “This does not mean that identities are fleeting, for their sole purpose is to provide a sense of continuity or “sameness” across social contexts and time (Bamberg, 2011; Berzonsky, 2011; Kroger & Marcia, 2011).”
Contemporary Issues in Sexual Orientation and Identity Development in Emerging Adulthood (2013, background): “Exploring identity options and maintaining flexible commitments in identity domains, such as education, work, politics, and religion, is commonplace in emerging adulthood (Cote, 2006; Kroger & Marcia, 2011) and sexuality is no exception.”
Identity and Purpose as Predictors of Subjective Well-Being in Emerging Adulthood (2015, background): “Exploration is the act of ‘‘re-thinking, sorting through, and trying out various roles and life plans’’ and commitment refers to ‘‘the degree of personal investment the individual expressed in a course of action or belief’’ (Kroger & Marcia, 2011, pp. 33–34).”
Identity in Emerging Adulthood (2013, methodology): “Much of the early work using the identity status model focused on comparing and contrasting the four identity status categories in terms of personality, adjustment, and developmental variables such as attachment, perspective taking, and moral reasoning (Kroger & Marcia, 2011).”
Leadership and followership identity processes: A multilevel review ☆ (2017, methodology): “Semi-projective measures such as the Ego Identity Incomplete Sentences Blank (EI-ISB; Marcia, 1966) and interviews, such as the Identity Status Interview (ISI) (Kroger & Marcia, 2011) have also been applied.”
Identity styles, dimensions, statuses, and functions: Making connections among identity conceptualizations (2013, background): “Evidence from these studies has indicated that statuses could be clearly differentiated in terms of personality characteristics, psychosocial problems, and quality of interpersonal relationships (for reviews, see Kroger & Marcia, 2011; Marcia, 1993; Meeus, 1996).”
