The purpose of this planning grant proposal is to plan and develop several studies of interrelated areas which are associated with identity development in adolescence. Some of these areas include self-esteem, school based achievement, motivation, and identity-based cognitive structures and information processing. Various types of data will be collected by the questionnaire method from students and parents and analyzed by multiple regression.
