Identity Development In Adolescent And Young Adult Cancer Survivors, Rachel M. Walsh May 2020

Identity Development In Adolescent And Young Adult Cancer Survivors, Rachel M. Walsh

Theses and Dissertations

The current study investigated identity development among adolescent and young adult cancer survivors. We examined the relationship between identity development with body image, self-esteem and self-perception. Results suggest that AYA survivors’ sense of self (how they perceive themselves, and how much they like themselves) is associated with their identity status.
