Adolescence and Identity: A Pedagogical Problem.
Nunner-Winkler, Gertrud
Zeitschrift fur Padagogik, v36 n5 p671-86 Sep 1990
Contends that identity problems among adolescents are exacerbated by misinterpretations of the role education plays in the process of achieving personal autonomy. States these problems arise when means to autonomy become ends in themselves and when status is emphasized over character. Explores three stages of the process from freedom to self-determination to autonomy. (CH)
