Working Class Membership and the Adolescent Identity Crisis.
Morash, Merry A.
Adolescence, v15 n58 p313-20 Sum 1980
Comparisons revealed that working class youth were more likely than middle class youth to be in either an identity achievement or diffusion status, and less likely to be in a state of crisis or to have accepted the values of parents without question. Findings suggest identity development differs between social classes. (Author/DB)
