  12. Objective: SWBAT1. describe and illustrate the term identity formation. Identity Formation • This is a term typically used by psychologists when they talk about adolescents (teens) trying to define/figure out who they are in relation to their peers, their family, their culture and their society in general. • This is done by “trying on” different roles in various settings, such as home, school, and other social settings. • Identity formation is a process where young people explore their own values, their sense of right and wrong, spirituality, racial and ethnic identity, sexuality, and gender. While teens are learning what makes them unique, they also have an increased need to “fit in.” Therefore, identity formation can be especially challenging.
