“…Finally, in line with our fourth postulate, despite some connections between the two domains, Israeli, German, and Argentinean studies all suggest that young people might treat work and romantic experiences as different domains where life meaning can be found and constructed and do not necessarily perceive them as connected (Facio & Resett, 2014;Seiffge-Krenke & Luyckx, 2014;Shulman, Laursen, & Dickson, 2014). This does not mean that emerging adults are either in a relationship or working.…”

Two central life domains, love and work, are described as the focus of identity exploration in emerging adulthood. The present theoretical overview suggests an additional perspective. Current postmodern processes in Western industrialized countries set the stage for the saliency of a new developmental task in emerging adulthood: finding the meaningful life. This task is enacted in various domains of life including love and work. The pursuit in either domain is different in diverse cultures that ascribe different levels of importance and allow different levels of autonomy in each domain. Thus, a given domain may be more or less salient as a source of meaning in life. The studies in this special issue accord with this new viewpoint even though they were not conceptualized from this perspective. Current research has just begun to examine the search for meaningful life in emerging adulthood. Research is therefore called for to address this lacuna.

“…The first goal of this study was to extend the existing literature on the negative effects of stress on relationship satisfaction by investigating emerging adults in dating relationships, and the possible protective role of self-control. Our results confirm the patterns previously reported for married couples (see Karney & Neff, 2013;Randall & Bodenmann, 2017), and for dating relationships in emerging adulthood (Falconier et al, 2015;Shulman, Laursen, & Dickson, 2014). Emerging adults in our study who reported greater percieved stress also reported lower relationship satisfaction.…”

This study investigates possible protective and vulnerability factors in the link between perceived stress and relationship satisfaction in dating relationships of emerging adults. We investigate whether self-control, as a positive self-regulation resource, serves as a buffer mitigating the negative effect of stress on relationships. We posited a pathway model in which we examine whether maladaptive time-perspectives represent vulnerability factors leading to higher perceived stress which is in turn associated with impaired self-control and lower relationship satisfaction. In an on-line survey, we collected data on time perspectives, perceived stress, self-control and relationship satisfaction from 360 emerging adults in heterosexual dating relationships. Perceived stress was associated with impaired self-control and lower relationship satisfaction. Past-negative, but not present-fatalistic perspective, was associated with more perceived stress which mediated the relationship between past-negative perspective and relationship satisfaction. However, adding this vulnerability factor to the model lead to self-control no longer having a significant buffering effect.

“…Further, although the identity development literature centers squarely on adolescence and emerging adulthood, somewhat ironically, researchers here have left gender relatively underexamined in comparison to other domains of identity, such as ethnic identity (e.g., Umaña-Taylor et al, 2014), or content domains such as religion or relationships (e.g., McLean et al, 2014; McLean, Syed, & Shucard, 2016). Thus, we situated this study in emerging adulthood, a time when individuals are exploring culturally salient adult roles such as family and work-related issues (see Mayseless & Keren, 2014), which are tightly linked to gender norms (e.g., Archer, 1989; Frisén & Wängqvist, 2011; Shulman, Laursen, & Dickson, 2014).…”

Applying the Master Narrative Framework to Gender Identity Development in Emerging Adulthood

We applied a novel framework to identity development, capturing both content and process, and personal and cultural components of identity in the content domain of gender. We examined master (and alternative) narratives: ubiquitous, powerful cultural stories with which individuals negotiate in constructing personal identity. Study 1 was a quantitative investigation of personal narratives about gender (n ¼ 245); Study 2 was a qualitative study of discourse processes concerning gender roles (n ¼ 12). Employing three approaches to identity development (status, narrative, and discursive) in a mixed methods design, we found that most individuals position themselves around a newer, alternative narrative about gender equality. However, in social interactions, this narrative got less airtime, in favor of narratives representing either traditional views or gender equality. Further, those who were exploring their identities were more likely to employ the less traditional narrative, suggesting a link between changing master narratives and personal identity exploration.
