بناء مقياس الهوية لدى المراهقين في ضوء نظرية إريكسون للنمو النفسي الاجتماعي

Abstract EN

This paper aims to build an objective tool to measure identity among adolescents based on Erikson's theory of psychological and social development.

To achieve this purpose, a scale was prepared - in its initial form - consisting of 47 items distributed on four basic dimensions (self-esteem, independence and uniqueness, goal setting and social roles).

The scale is applied on a sample of 247- second year secondary school pupils in El-Oued city.

The scale reliability was confirmed by the Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient and split half Spearman-Brown formula, while the validity of this scale was verified using the face validity and internal consistency, and the structural validity was verified through confirmatory factor analysis.

The results of the study confirmed the validity of 44 items of the scale, and then a set of suggestions was produced.
