以大学生和中年女性为被试，探讨了自我概念分化（SCD）与心理适应的关系。自我概念分化是指在不同的社会角色中，自我具有不同的人格特征。在这两项研究中，SCD水平高的学生表现出情绪调节能力差（例如，抑郁症）并且倾向于拒绝社会规范和惯例（例如，社会化程度低）。纵向分析表明，21岁时测得的这些相同特征预测了30多年后中年时测得的SCD。这些发现提供了强有力的证据，SCD是自我分裂的标志，而不是角色身份的专业化。社会背景也是SCD的一个重要决定因素;对角色表现的不满和关系和工作中频繁的角色变化都预测了9年后测量的SCD。
The relation between self-concept differentiation (SCD), the tendency to see one self as having different personality characteristics in different social roles, and psychological adjustment was examined in a sample of college students and a sample of middle-aged women. In both studies, Ss with high levels of SCD showed poor emotional adjustment (e.g., depression) and tended to reject social norms and conventions (e.g., low socialization). Longitudinal analyses demonstrated that these same characteristics measured at age 21 predicted SCD measured more than 30 years later in middle age. These findings provide strong evidence that SCD is a sign of fragmentation of the self rather than specialization of role identities. The social context was also an important determinant of SCD; both dissatisfaction with role performance and frequent role changes in relationships and jobs predicted SCD measured 9 years later.
