Abstract
Summary Forty-eight male and female college students participated in a study designed to evaluate further Erikson's concept of ego identity as an indicator of intrapersonal and interpersonal psychological adjustment. S's identity status was established with Marcia's rating system. Intrapersonal adjustment was defined by Genthner's Personal Responsibility scale, and interpersonal adjustment was defined by Carkhuff's levels of facilitation. Results indicated that Ss high in ego identity were rated as significantly higher on the measures of intrapersonal (p < .01) and interpersonal (p < .008) adjustment than Ss low in ego identity.
