Influence of Parents and Peers on Identity01:23

Influence of Parents and Peers on Identity

Adolescence is a pivotal period of identity formation, during which individuals begin to answer questions central to their sense of self, such as "Who am I?" and "Who do I hope to become?" Both parents and peers play critical roles in guiding adolescents through this complex developmental phase.

Social Foundations of Self II: The Generalized Other

According to George Herbert Mead, as children progress beyond the game stage, they develop a more comprehensive understanding of societal rules and norms. This cognitive and social development enables them to internalize the expectations of the broader community, refining their ability to regulate behavior.Consistent participation in organized activities is crucial in helping children recognize that their actions are not isolated but contribute to a more significant, interconnected group effort.

Relationship with Other Adult Family Members and Siblings

Other adult family members and siblings play a crucial role in shaping children’s social and emotional development. While parents or primary caregivers are often the central figures in early attachment and socialization, other adults in a child’s life, such as grandparents, aunts, and uncles, can significantly influence developmental outcomes. These influences depend on each adult’s personality and may help compensate when a primary caregiver is emotionally distant or inconsistent. For...

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...
Sources of Self-Esteem II: Performance Feedback01:24

Sources of Self-Esteem II: Performance Feedback

Self-esteem is intricately tied to our perception of competence and our ability to exert control over our lives. One of the primary sources of this perception is performance feedback — the ongoing evaluation of our actions in terms of success and failure. According to Franks and Marolla (1976), people derive self-worth from experiencing themselves as causal agents, capable of achieving goals and overcoming obstacles. This process nurtures a critical component of self-esteem: self-efficacy,...

  • Educational Psychology
  • Sport Pedagogy
  • Social Psychology

Background:

  • Student engagement is crucial for academic achievement.
  • Interpersonal support from peers and teachers can foster engagement.
  • Agentic engagement and peer support are key components of student involvement.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the reciprocal relationship between agentic engagement and peer support in physical education.
  • To test a model where agentic engagement and peer support positively influence each other over time.
  • To understand the dynamic interplay between student input and peer climate.

Main Methods:

  • A three-wave longitudinal survey design was employed.
  • 740 South Korean secondary students participated over an 18-week semester.
  • A random-intercept cross-lagged panel model analyzed reciprocal effects.

Main Results:

  • Peer-directed agentic engagement predicted a more supportive peer climate.
  • Perceived supportive peer climate predicted increased peer-directed agentic engagement.
  • A significant reciprocal, positive, and mutually facilitative process was identified.

Conclusions:

  • Agentic engagement and peer support in physical education create a positive feedback loop.
  • Students' constructive contributions and perceptions of peer support reinforce each other.
  • This dynamic fosters a more engaged and supportive learning environment in physical education.
