在这一章中，作者探讨了网络平台在成年初期的身份发展中所起的作用。他们使用两个年轻人的故事来突出现有研究的主导主题，并检验在网络时代形成一个人的身份的发展含义。从理论上讲，这项调查是由心理学家埃里克·埃里克森的工作提供的，他将身份发展描述为一个探索的过程，最终导致个人的连续性和连贯性。两位作者思考了这一20世纪中叶形成的理论在数字世界中必须提供什么见解。本章最后讨论了与教育、政策和新技术设计有关的实际影响。
In this chapter, the authors explore the role that networked platforms play in identity development during emerging adulthood. They use the stories of two youth to highlight dominant themes from existing research and to examine the developmental implications of forming one's identity in a networked era. The inquiry is theoretically informed by the work of the psychologist Erik Erikson, who depicted identity development as a process of exploration that ultimately results in a sense of personal continuity and coherence. The authors consider what insights this theory-formulated in the mid-twentieth century-has to offer in a digital world. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the practical implications relating to education, policy, and the design of new technologies.
