Investigating Identity Through Fiction
Mentor: Dr. Jacy Young
| What influences the formation of identity? Psychology looks at the way humans behave, think, and feel. The process of growing from a child to an adult is full of changes. There are a lot of influences on people during this time and these influences can have large impacts on who you become. I used fiction to illustrate some of these changes in identity, to create a more involved understanding of how one’s own identity forms. Closer reflection into one’s life and the interactions one has with others can help in the understanding of who one is. |
