Ego identity defined as a fundamental element of a person and as self-continuum, mental andinward image that an individual has about him or herself. This subject investigated in contemporary world, amply.For actualizing and testing this concept, four bases including achievement, moratorium, foreclosure and diffusionintroduced and based on this framework, and the effect of different factors on e...

The terms ego constriction, ego inhibition, and ego restriction have not been clearly differentiated in their usage in the literature. In this paper a rationale for "ego constriction" as an entity distinct from both ego inhibition and ego restriction is given, despite its clear similarities to each. In a person with an ego inhibition, the ego inhibits a part of its own functioning because a par...

Monosomy of an autosome is widely thought to be lethal (Patau, I963). Deficiencies due to deletions of chromosomes I8 and 5 are well documented (de Grouchy, Lamy, Thieffry, Arthuis, and Salmon, I963; Lejeune, Lafourcade, Berger, Vialatte, Boeswillwald, Seringe, and Turpin, I963), and reciprocal translocations which can arise in a carrier person and result in unbalanced offspring with duplicatio...

This study considers the contribution of two ego functions--intelligence and defense mechanisms--to ego developmental level. Two independent assessments of ego level were related to IQ and defense mechanism use in a sample of 89 young adults. Whereas IQ and defense were themselves found to be unrelated, both variables predicted ego level: The relation with IQ was linear, whereas the relation wi...
