Coping with Identity Crisis: Group Dynamics in Response to Self-Identity Challenges

Abstract

This paper explores the intricate dynamics of identity crisis and group responses within the Canadian context over the past decade. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, our study amalgamates quantitative data from structured surveys with qualitative insights derived from in-depth interviews to unravel the nuanced landscape of self-identity challenges. The interplay of cultural heritage, political influences, and economic disparities emerges as central themes shaping group dynamics in response to identity challenges. Our findings not only contribute to the existing literature on identity but also provide a holistic perspective that informs policies and interventions fostering inclusivity and resilience. As we navigate the complexities of identity within the Canadian socio-cultural milieu, this research serves as a foundation for future exploration into the evolving dynamics of identity crisis and group responses.
