“…The ISI-6G is a 5-point Likert-type scale ranging from totally disagree=1 to totally agree=5. White, Wampler, & Winn (1998) reported Cronbach's alphas of 0.70 for informational style, 0.68 for normative style and 0.70 for diffuse-avoidant style (as cited in Vaziri, Kashani, Jamshidifar & Vaziri, 2014). In Iranian samples, the Cronbach's alphas for the informational style, normative style, diffuse-avoidant style and commitment dimension were reported as 0.83, 0.72, 0.56 and 0.84, respectively (Vaziri et al, 2014).…”

This study was conducted to examine the relationships between dispositional mindfulness, temperament, personality traits, and identity styles and to determine the predictive power of dispositional mindfulness, temperament, personality traits in identity styles. Methods: 223 students (120 females and 103 males) from the universities in Tehran were selected as the sample. The data were gathered using the Temperament and Character Inventory, the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale, and the Identity Style Inventory. Results: Dispositional mindfulness was significantly correlated with identity styles and identity commitment. There were also significant relationships between mindfulness and temperament dimensions and character dimensions (-0.32 to 0.38, P<0.01). Regression analysis indicated that three personality dimensions, i.e., self-directedness, self-transcendence, novelty seeking and dispositional mindfulness predict 35% of the variance of identity commitment; and dispositional mindfulness, self-transcendence, cooperativeness and novelty seeking predict 26% of the variance of normative identity style. Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that mindfulness and the psychobiological aspects of personality may have a significant role in the process of identity achievement. Also, the biological aspects of personality may have a significant role in dispositional mindfulness.

“…The internal reliability of the ISI-5 has ranged from .77 to .83. Cross-cultural competency was also validated, as the measure has successfully been translated into Italian, Iranian, French, and other languages, in addition to items being revised to be less-domain specific and more applicable to a wider range of populations, in comparison to the ISI-5's predecessors (Monacis et al 2009;Vaziri et al 2014;Zimmermann et al 2012;Berzonsky et al 2013).…”

Relationships between the identity styles (informational, normative, and diffuseavoidant), compassionate love for humanity, self-compassion, and quiet ego were explored. To date, no research has examined relationships between these constructs. Three hundred four individuals (84 men and 220 women) completed self-report measures of identity style, compassionate love for humanity, self-compassion, and quiet ego. Participants were members of an age range referred to as emerging adults (ages 18 to 29). Seven hypotheses were investigated, including whether: (1) there will be a significant positive relationship between the informational identity style and quiet ego; (2) there will be a significant negative relationship between the normative identity style and quiet ego; (3) there will be a significant negative relationship between the diffuse-avoidant identity style and quiet ego; (4) the informational identity style positively predicts quiet ego, with high self-compassion being a mediating factor; (5) the informational identity style positively predicts quiet ego, with high compassionate love for humanity being a mediating factor; (6) the normative identity style negatively predicts quiet ego, with low compassionate love for humanity being a mediating factor; and (7) the diffuse-avoidant identity style negatively predicts quiet ego, with low self-compassion being a mediating factor. Data analyses were carried out using the statistical software SPSS to conduct correlations and hierarchical multiple regressions, in order to examine the hypotheses. Results indicated that quiet ego was significantly positively correlated with the informational identity style, and significantly negatively correlated with the normative and diffuse-avoidant identity styles. Furthermore, the positive relationship between the informational identity style and quiet ego was partially mediated by compassionate love for humanity. The negative relationship between the normative identity style and quiet ego was linearly impacted, but not mediated, by compassionate love for you, Dr. Susan Burke, for your feedback and kindness during this process. Dr. Linda O'Neill, I am so lucky to have had you with me during this degree. Your positivity, feedback, and optimism allow me to dream bigger and go after my goals. Also, I would like to extend my gratitude to Dr. Sherry Beaumont for sharing your knowledge with me during this study. It was incredible to have an expert in the area available, and I am so very appreciative of all your assistance during this research. Next, thank you Dr. Serena George for being an incredible mentor in the counselling program. Your compassion, understanding, and empathy were very important to me, as I grew during this process. I am also so thankful for my coworkers at the Prince George Public Library, alongside my friends, brother, and parents. I appreciate you all for listening to me rambling on and on about school, sometimes for hours. Dr. Paul Siakaluk, I cannot thank you enough for all your guidance, help, and logical reasonin...
