To study the impact of personality dimensions on identity crisis among adolescents

Abstract: 

Adolescence and identity crisis is a much discussed phenomena. As growing individuals, their personality dimensions or a set of characteristics are also playing an important role in their being. The present study attempts to explore the relation between personality dimensions and identity crisis of adolescents if any.  In the present study, standardized tests were administered to obtain the scores on self image of students (considered as the indicator of identity crisis) and scores on different dimensions of personality. Based on the results of the study, it was observed that personality dimensions of the adolescents do not play any significant role in causing identity crisis among adolescents. Adolescents are able to cope well with their situations and people around them and live rather comfortably. The study conducted indicates that personality dimensions do not become causal factors for identity crisis.
