Understanding role-identity exit is as important as understanding entrance inlo roles and emergence of role-identities since individuals frequently abandon and lose their roles. This study explores the process of exiting role-identities chat individuals experience during the divorce and postdivorce interactions. Results indicate a different role-identity exit process for initiators than for noniniuators, although members of each group passed through four stages. These different processes are described, and variables affecting h e role-identity exit process, such as degree of voluntariness, degree of awareness, and h e degree of control are briefly discussed.
