The identity status of African Americans in middle adolescence: a replication and extension of Forbes and Ashton (1998).
This study is a replication and extension of the work of Forbes and Ashton (1998). Seventy-seven African American high school students completed the revised version of the Extended Objective Measure of Ego Identity Status. Most of the students were found to be in uncommitted identity statuses. Similar results were found in both the ideological and interpersonal domains.
