Key words:
Ego-identity, Emotional
Intelligence and Birth
Order.
This research explores the relationship between Ego-identity and
Emotional Intelligence among adolescent students, based on Erik Erikson's
psychosocial development theory. The study aims to identify the
characteristics of adolescents with strong and weak ego-identity, with a
particular focus on emotional intelligence, academic achievement, sex,
academic stream, and birth order. The research investigates how
emotional intelligence and other variables di)er between these two
groups. The study's *ndings underscore the importance of Ego-identity in
adolescent development and its signi*cant role in identity formation. It
provides valuable insights for educators, psychologists, and researchers
interested in enhancing the emotional and social development of
adolescents, particularly in fostering a strong sense of ego-identity for
overall psychological well-being.
