ADAPTATION OF THE UTRECHT MANAGEMENT OF IDENTITY COMMITMENTS SCALE-PARENTAL IDENTITY (U-MICS-PI MODIFIED BY K. PIOTROWSKI)
Abstract
Abstract. We present the results adaptation of “The Utrecht-Management of Identity Commitments Scale-Parental Identity (U-MICS-PI)”, modified in 2018 by Konrad Piotrowski. Materials and methods. The study involved 82 participants: 42 women and 40 men aged 25 to 56 years (M = 37.12; SD = 2.80). The results of U-MICS-PI were compared to the results of “Dimensions of Identity Development Scale (DIDS)”. Results. The statistic analysis of the data let us conclude that Russian version of U-MICS-PI has been shown to be a generally valid and reliable psychometric technique for assessing parental identity processes. Conclusions. The Utrecht-Management of Identity Commitments Scale-Parental Identity (U-MICS-PI) has been successfully translated and adapted on a Russian sample. The scale can be applied in psychological counseling and for further identity-related research.
