Abstract
This study focuses primarily on a qualitative exploration of the perceived social role patterns in youth. In this article we aim to elaborate on the following research questions. First, what characteristics are involved to describe role identity as well as role antagonists? Second, which role patterns and descriptions are composed of role models in university students? According to research questions Pearsonʼs chi-squared test was used. Finally, we conclude with a discussion on how role models contribute to other aspects for instance when role model narratives are not just self-expression but have relevant power constituting knowledge, practices, and collectively generating the cognitive structure of social experience. We hope this article encourages further work to a deeper understanding of the developmental processes behind social influence at the intersection of psychology and social studies, putting role models center stage.
