Depressive symptoms among dance artists in South Korea: balance between self- and social identity on job value

BACKGROUND: The balance between self- and social identity on job value of Korean dance artists, considered as performing artists, was measured to investigate the relationship between balance and depressive symptoms. METHODS: Data of 139 dance artists were analyzed for depressive symptoms assessed by their responses to questionnaires from the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression (CESD) translated into Korean. The balance score of each aspect of social identity compared to that of self-identity on job value was measured and classified as lower, equal, or higher. Following a graphical approach, we performed locally weighted scatterplot smoothing algorithm, simple linear regression, and quadric equation regression. RESULTS: The mean of CESD was highest in the higher balance group and lowest in the lower balance group. There was a linear relationship between balance score and CESD regarding specific audience, unspecified audience, and unspecified public. Balance score showed no association with other aspects of social identity. In the balance score range of 1 or higher, it was associated with CESD with respect to artist colleague, unspecified audience, and unspecified public. CONCLUSIONS: Dance artists should maintain a balance between self- and social identity in job value to prevent depressive symptoms.

Objective:To explore the mediating effect of self-identity on the relationship between interpersonal adaptation and the tendency of mobile phone addiction in college students.Methods:Totally 498 college students (217 males and 281 females) were selected and assessed with the College Student Interpersonal Adaptability Inventory (CSIAI),Mobile Phone Addiction Tendency Scale (MPATS) and Personal Identity Scale(PIS).The bias-corrected percentile bootstrap method was used to analyze the mediating effect of self-identity between interpersonal adaptation and mobile phone addiction tendency in college students.Results:The MPATS scores of male students were significantly lower than female students [(2.6 ± 0.7) vs.(2.7 ± 0.6),P ＜ 0.05].The MPATS scores were negatively correlated with the scores of CSIAI and PIS (r =-0.31,-0.36,Ps ＜ 0.01),the CSIAI scores were positively correlated with the PIS scores (r =0.50,P ＜0.01).Self-identity played a partly mediating role between interpersonal adaptation and mobile phone addiction tendency,which accounted for 43.6％ of the total effect.Conclusion:It shows that the mobile phone addiction tendency may be related to interpersonal adaptation and self-identity,interpersonal adaptation could affect the mobile phone addiction tendency through the self-identity.

Difference of Self-identity Levels between Strabismus Patients and Normal Controls

PURPOSE: To evaluate differences in self-identity in patients diagnosed with strabismus, patients who underwent strabismus surgery, and healthy control individuals. METHODS: Self-identity testing was done during a military service physical examination. There were three subject groups: subjects with strabismus (group 1), subjects who had undergone corrective strabismus surgery (group 2), and subjects free of strabismus (group 3). The self-identity test was comprised of six sub-sections (subjectivity, self-acceptance, future confidence, goal orientation, initiative, and familiarity). Statistical significance of the sub-sections was compared across the three groups. Correlations in age at the time of surgery and across the six sub-sections were investigated in group 2. RESULTS: A total of 351 subjects were enrolled in the study; 96 subjects were in group 1, 108 subjects were in group 2, and 147 subjects were in group 3. Significant differences were evident in subjectivity, self-acceptance, initiative and familiarity between groups 1 and 3. No significant differences were found between groups 2 and 3. In group 2, statistical significance was evident between age at surgery and initiative and familiarity (r = −0.333, p < 0.001; r = −0.433, p < 0.001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Self-identity is greater in non-strabismus subjects than strabismus subjects. Correction of strabismus may increase self-identity levels.

Tensions et stratégies identitaires des enfants de couples mixtes / Tensões e estratégias identitárias de filhos de casais mistos / Identity tensions and strategies of nationally mixed people / Tensiones y estrategias identitarias de hijos de parejas mixtas

Appréhender l'identité d'individus dont l'origine est "mixte" permet de questionner l'existence de tensions entre deux groupes auxquels ils pourraient s'identifier nationalement. L'objet de cet article est de voir si de telles tensions existent, et comment les enfants de couples mixtes y font face. L'analyse d'une centaine d'entretiens effectués en France, au Royaume-Uni et en Allemagne révèle différentes situations où les enfants de couples mixtes, c'est-à-dire les individus ayant des parents nés dans des pays différents, connaissent une crise identitaire : en cas de concurrence entre lignées, ou d'inadéquation entre identités pour soi et pour autrui. Dans les cas où ils ne connaissent pas de concurrence entre groupes, les enfants de couples mixtes n'ont pas connu de tensions identitaires. Dans les autres cas, ils ont développé différentes stratégies afin de se forger une identité cohérente et positive. L'entredeux identitaire est donc une position que l'individu fait tout pour quitter.

Ao estudar a identidade de indivíduos de origens nacionais “mistas”, a pesquisa investiga o impacto das tensões possíveis que estes indivíduos podem experimentar por pertencer a duas nacionalidades. O objetivo deste artigo é verificar se estas tensões existem e, caso existam, como “pessoas de nacionalidade mista”, ou seja, pessoas tendo pais nascidos em países diferentes, respondem a elas. A análise de cerca de cem entrevistas conduzidas na França, no Reino Unido e Alemanha, trouxeram a tona diferentes situações nas quais eles experimentaram uma crise identitária: no caso da competição de descendência, ou um desajuste entre a identidade construída para si e para os outros. Quando eles não se encontram imersos em tensões intergrupais, pessoas de nacionalidade mista não experimentam tensões identitárias. Em outros casos, eles desenvolvem estratégias para construir uma identidade positiva e coerente, mostrando que a situação de conflito identitário é algo que eles buscam ativamente se desvencilhar.

In studying the identity of individuals of “mixed” national origins, the research investigates the impact of potential tensions these individuals could experience in belonging to two national groups. The purpose of this article is to see if such tensions exist, and if so, how “nationally mixed people,” that is people having parents born in two different countries, respond to them. The analysis of about a hundred interviews conducted in France, the UK and Germany highlights different situations where they experience an identity crisis: in the case of competition between lineage, or a mismatch between self-identity and identity for others. When they were not in the middle of intergroup tensions, nationally mixed people did not experience identity tension. In other cases, they developed strategies in order to build a coherent and positive identity, thus, showing that having a conflicting identity was a situation the individual was strongly fighting to leave.

El objetivo de este artículo es verificar si estar tensiones existen y, caso existan, como “personas de nacionalidades mixtas”, o sea, personas teniendo padres nacidos en países distintos, contestan a ellas. El análisis de cerca de cien entrevistas conducidas en Francia, en Reino Unido y Alemania, traen a la superficie distintas situaciones en las cuales ellos experimentan una crisis identitaria: en el caso de la competición de descendencia, o un desajustes entre la identidad construida para sí mismo y para los otros. Cuando ellos no se encuentran inmersos en tensiones intra-grupales, personas de nacionalidad mixta no experimentan tensiones identitaria. En otros casos, ellos desenvuelven estrategias para construir una identidad positiva y coherente, mostrando que la situación de conflicto identitario es algo que ellos buscan activamente desvencijarse.

The experimental group participated in enneagram group counseling program for 38 hours through eight sessions covering four different topics. Collected data were analyzed using Chi-square test, Fisher's exact test, t-test, and Wilcoxon signed rank test. RESULTS: Total self-identity score for the experimental group was significantly higher than the control group. However, there was no significant difference between the two groups for depression scores. The Assertive and Compliant groups demonstrated significant change in self-identification while the Withdrawn groups did not reveal any change.
