The research investigates the relationship between an individual’s social orientation and their identity style. The identity style is understood, following Berzonsky (1989), as the manner in which important life decisions are taken, including those related to one’s identity and ways of coping with everyday problems. Having anticipated differences in ways of constructing identity, decision-making, and coping with problems, the author distinguishes three identity styles: informational, normative, and diffuse-avoidant. In turn, the research in social orientations distinguishes an individualistic and a collectivistic orientation (Reykowski, 1999). They are understood as forms of mentality connected with basic intuitions and beliefs related to the question of which type of a relation between an individual and the community is proper and just. The conducted research verifi ed the existence of sex differences in the construction of identity styles and adopted social orientation, as well as the relation between an individual’s identity style and their social orientation. Berzonsky’s revised Identity Style Inventory (ISI-3) and a questionnaire for the measurement of vertical and horizontal collectivism and individualism (KIRH; Adamska, Retowski, Konarski, 2005) were used to determine an individual’s identity style and social orientation, respectively. The KIRH enabled to identify two types collectivism (vertical and horizontal) and two types of individualism. The sample consisted of 657 subjects (340 female and 317 male), between 22 and 40 years of age. The conducted analysis revealed differences between female and male subjects as regards identity styles and social orientations as well as the relation between certain identity styles and specifi c social orientations.

Zdaniem Eriksona (1964, 1965) ważnym elementem kształtowania dojrzałej i zintegrowanej tożsamości jest wypracowanie osobistego stosunku do religii. Celem prezentowanego badania było określenie związku między religijnością a rozwojem tożsamości w okresie adolescencji. Trzystu uczniów krakowskich gimnazjów i liceów (w tym również szkół katolickich) wypełniło Skalę Centralności Religijności Hubera oraz Kwestionariusz Stylów Tożsamości Berzonsky'ego. Wyniki potwierdziły zakładany związek pomiędzy stylem tożsamości a religijnością, definiowaną jako system konstruktów umiejscowiony w systemie osobowości jednostki. Wskaźniki religijności w większości korelowały dodatnio ze stylem informacyjnym i normatywnym oraz negatywnie ze stylem dyfuzyjno-unikającym. Przywiązywanie wagi do religii i nadawanie jej ważnej roli w życiu wiązało się z posiadaniem dojrzalszego i adaptacyjnego stylu tożsamości. Brak zainteresowania religią występował natomiast u osób, których tożsamość jest fragmentaryczna i niezintegrowana. Odnotowano pewne różnice między uczniami szkół katolickich i niekatolickich.

According to Erikson (1964, 1965), developing our individual approach to religion is a very important part of our mature and integrated identity development. The aim of the present study was to determine the connection between religiosity and identity development in adolescence. 300 students of Cracow's high and junior high schools (including Catholic schools) filled in Polish versions of Huber's Centrality of Religiosity Scale and Berzonsky's Identity Style Inventory. The results confirmed the expected connection between identity styles and religiosity constructs defined as a system located in the personality of the individual. Indicators of religion correlated most positively with the normative and informational styles and negatively with the diffuse/avoidant style. Attaching weight to religion and giving it an important role in life was associated with having a more mature and adaptive identity style. Lack of interest in religion occurred in people whose identity was fragmented and nonintegrated. Some differences were noted between students of Catholic and non-Catholic schools.

Departing from the model suggested by Luyckx, Schwarz, Berzonsky et al. (2008), the relationships between identity and educational context, social participation, and identity information processing style were investigated. Participants were 972 students from six vocational schools in Poznań. The students, within these six schools, attended Grades I-III of three types of vocational schools: basic vocational schools (n=271), technical upper secondary schools (n=448), and specialized upper secondary schools (n=253). Three questionnaires were used: The Dimensions of Identity Development Scale (DIDS/PL), which measures five identity dimensions according to the concept of Luyckx, Schwarz, Berzonsky et al. (2008), Social Participation Questionnaire, developed by Brzezińska, Rękosiewicz and Hejmanowski (see Rękosiewicz, 2013b), enabling identification of the type of social participation, and the Polish adaptation of M. Berzonsky’s Identity Style Inventory 4 (ISI-4) authored by A. Senejko (2010), to examine identity styles. The results showed that the students from basic vocational schools and technical upper secondary schools were more often characterized by the normative identity style, whereas the students from specialized upper secondary schools manifested a greater tendency to engage themselves in exploration, both adaptive and ruminative.
