Becoming Certain of the Self Longitudinal Studies Into the Dynamics of (Daily) Identity Development

Friday 12 April 2019 Andrik Becht (UU, WP3) defends his PhD dissertation titled: ‘Becoming Certain of the Self Longitudinal Studies Into the Dynamics of (Daily) Identity Development’.

Andrik Becht applied an innovative approach by studying both daily, and long-term identity processes at the within- and between-person level from early adolescence into emerging adulthood. Given the fact that identity development does not take place in a void, he also examined theoretically relevant contextual, and neurobiological predictors, and consequences of identity uncertainty. Together, the dissertation provides a developmental, comprehensive, and systematic perspective on the study of identity.
