Racial Identity Attitudes and Ego Identity Statuses in Dominican and Puerto Rican College Students
Sanchez, Delida
Journal of College Student Development, v54 n5 p497-510 Sep-Oct 2013
This study explored the relation between racial identity attitudes and ego identity statuses in 94 Dominican and Puerto Rican Latino college students in an urban public college setting. Simultaneous regression analyses were conducted to test the relation between racial identity attitudes and ego identity statuses, and findings indicated that racial identity attitudes were significantly related to ego identity statuses. Specifically, internalization racial identity statuses were significantly related to foreclosed ego statuses, and dissonance racial identity statuses were significantly related to moratorium ego statuses.
