Narrative identity is a distinct level of personality that is related to psychological adjustment across the life course and is at its height of development during the emerging adult years. The present study was designed to capture a contextualized understanding of how narrative identity processes relate to adjustment during college. Using a 4-wave longitudinal design (n = 437 participants; n = 1544 narratives) and multilevel growth curve modeling, we examined how self-event connections coded from academic and romantic high point and low point narratives reported at the end of the first year were related to trajectories of life satisfaction and mental health assessed 4 times from the summer before college to the following fall (sophomore year). We found that positive self-event connections, especially those in romantic high points, were associated with an increase in life satisfaction. In contrast, negative self-event connections in both academic and romantic low points were predicted by higher levels of depression and anxiety and lower levels of life satisfaction prior to the start of college. Methodological and theoretical contributions are discussed in terms of the importance of contextualizing narrative identity in developmental time and context, particularly for gaining a more nuanced perspective on how identity relates to adjustment during a developmental transition.

过渡到大学期间的叙事身份过程和调整模式:一种发展中的情境化方法。

叙事身份是一种独特的人格水平,与整个人生过程中的心理调节有关,并且在新兴成人时代正处于发展的高峰。本研究旨在捕捉有关大学期间叙事身份过程与调整之间关系的语境理解。使用4波纵向设计(n = 437名参与者; n = 1544叙述)和多级增长曲线建模,我们研究了第一年末报道的学术和浪漫的高低叙事如何编码自事件连接从大学入学前的夏季到次年秋季(大二),评估了与生活满意度和心理健康轨迹相关的四次。我们发现积极的自我事件联系,特别是在浪漫的高峰期,与生活满意度的提高有关。相反,在大学开学前,抑郁和焦虑水平较高,生活满意度较低,预示着学术和浪漫低点的负面自我事件联系。讨论了方法论和理论上的贡献,涉及在发展时间和背景中将叙事身份情境化的重要性,特别是对于在发展过渡过程中身份与调整的关系获得更细致入微的观点方面。(PsycINFO数据库记录(c)2019 APA,保留所有权利)。在大学开学之前,抑郁和焦虑水平较高,生活满意度较低,预示了学术和浪漫低点的负面自我事件联系。讨论了方法论和理论上的贡献,涉及在发展时间和背景中将叙事身份情境化的重要性,特别是对于在发展过渡过程中身份与调整的关系获得更细致入微的观点方面。(PsycINFO数据库记录(c)2019 APA,保留所有权利)。在大学开学之前,抑郁和焦虑水平较高,生活满意度较低,预示了学术和浪漫低点的负面自我事件联系。讨论了方法论和理论上的贡献,涉及在发展时间和背景中将叙事身份情境化的重要性,特别是对于在发展过渡过程中身份与调整的关系获得更细致入微的观点方面。(PsycINFO数据库记录(c)2019 APA,保留所有权利)。
