Summary
Core cognition, encompassing coping and co-creation, explains identity development. Psychological safety promotes well-being and healthy development, unlike restricted ontological security.
Area of Science:
- Psychology
- Cognitive Science
- Well-being Studies
Background:
- Builds upon Part 1, assuming core cognition for well-being is universal across living beings.
- Introduces two behavioral ontologies: coping and co-creation.
- Establishes foundational terms of core cognition.
Purpose of the Study:
- Extend the conceptual framework and behavioral ontologies.
- Explain the basic structure of identity development from first principles.
- Apply core cognition to understand theories of well-being through the lens of coping and co-creation.
Main Methods:
- Demonstrates how combinations of coping, co-creation, adequacy, and inadequacy explain identity structure.
- Analyzes the concept of ontological security in relation to well-being.
- Examines psychological safety as a precondition for healthy development.
Main Results:
- Four combinations of coping and co-creation (adequacy/inadequacy) explain identity structure, including features of authoritarianism.
- Ontological security is characterized by restricted well-being creation and protection, termed "abnormal normality."
- Psychological safety fosters preconditions for high well-being and healthy development of coping and co-creation.
Conclusions:
- The framework provides a foundational understanding of identity development and well-being.
- Differentiates between restrictive ontological security and conducive psychological safety.
- Highlights the role of core cognition in fostering adaptive coping and co-creation for enhanced well-being.

50.2K
According to Charles Cooley, we base our image on what we think other people see (Cooley 1902). We imagine how we must appear to others, then react to this speculation. We don certain clothes, prepare our hair in a particular manner, wear makeup, use cologne, and the like—all with the notion that our presentation of ourselves is going to affect how others perceive us. We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...

Coping strategies are methods people use to manage, tolerate, or reduce the effects of stressors. These strategies involve both behavioral and psychological actions to handle stressful situations. One common approach is problem-focused coping, which aims to change or eliminate the source of stress rather than merely addressing its consequences. This method involves taking direct action to resolve the issue causing stress.

James Marcia's identity status model provides a framework for understanding how adolescents navigate identity formation through varying degrees of exploration and commitment. Marcia's model builds on Erik Erikson's theories of psychosocial development, focusing specifically on how adolescents reconcile individual aspirations with societal expectations. His model describes identity formation as a dynamic process where adolescents move between different states depending on their level...
