“…Family and work domains are vital aspects of the adult identity (Kemph, 1969). Research has shown how identification with work and family had positive implications on several outcomes (i.e., according to the above-mentioned social cure perspective; e.g., Svensson & Frisén, 2021). In line with the identity integration perspective, however, it is binding to analyze how these identifications are perceived as blended and compatible versus conflictual and incompatible, particularly in the context of stressful situations, challenging the interplay among people's roles (Manzi et al, 2021).…”

Successful identity integration processes are fundamental for the well-being of working parents during stressful circumstances. In two studies we analyzed the associations between Parent–Work Identity Integration (PWII), workload, care-load, and parents’ work problems in a sample of individual working parents in Italy ( N = 326 individuals; Study 1), and those between work–life conflict, task-sharing between partners, PWII, and parents’ intention to leave their job and mental health in a sample of mixed-sex working couples with school-aged children ( N = 97 couples, Study 2). Finally, we examined gender differences in all the above associations. Study 1 results showed that parents dissatisfied with care-load distribution within the couple and those with higher workload also reported more problems at work, and these effects were fully mediated by PWII. Moreover, Study 2 showed that care-load distribution is only associated with women’s PWII and, indirectly, their well-being and their intention to leave their job. Moreover, parents’ lower work-life conflict was associated with higher PWII and, in turn, to better mental health and lower intention to leave their job. The effects of work-life conflict were also found to cross-over onto the partner’s well-being. Promoting working parents’ ability to harmoniously blend their work and parental identities, in addition to balance conflicting demands between work and life, appears crucial for intervention.

“…Множественность социокультурной идентичности определяет наличие научного интереса к пересечению, смешиванию, взаимовлиянию разных видов групповой идентичности. Например, исследование Y. Svensson и A. Frisén посвящено изучению взаимосвязи профессиональной и семейной идентичности в ранней взрослости [21], O. Spiegler с коллегами проследили взаимосвязь религиозной и национальной идентичности среди мусульман-мигрантов [22], C. Yea-Wen и M. Marion установили уровень слияния социальной и личностной идентичности, которое приводит личность к готовности пожертвовать собой ради группы [15].…”

Introduction. The study of the basic characteristics of the sociocultural identity of a modern student as value and semantic foundations of personal development is relevant due to the cultural and moral transformations of modern society and the practical need to change the system of education in higher education.Aim. The current research aims to reveal the sociocultural characteristics by which a modern student describes himself/herself when compared with a group and to identify groups, communities, which is the subject of identification for the student.Methodology and research methods. The authors used a quantitative approach to the collection and analysis of the data obtained. This made it possible to cover a large sample and obtain statistically reliable results. The theoretical methods of research were historiographical and comparative types of analysis (allowed to formulate the initial provisions of the study); conceptual and terminological analysis of philosophical, psychological, psychological-pedagogical, socio-psychological literature (used to describe the categorical field of the problem); systematisation and conceptualisation of scientific ideas. The following empirical methods were applied: questionnaires, testing. Data processing methods: methods of mathematical statistics (descriptive statistics, Student’s T-test, one-factor analysis of variance).Results. The article contains the results of an empirical study of the sociocultural identity of students. The authors defined the foundations of the ideas of modern youth about themselves. In particular, students describe themselves through belonging to family, profession, gender and national groups. The authors identified the groups with which the respondents identify themselves: this is a family and a circle of friends. Moreover, the authors revealed that the socio-cultural identity of students has gender, age differences, and depends on the direction of training at the university. The role of the presented results in the modern international scientific discourse was analysed.Scientific novelty. The authors conceptualised the concept of sociocultural identity and described the mechanisms of its formation; identified the main components in the structure of sociocultural identity of young people; established gender, age and educational differences in the characteristics of sociocultural identity of students; identified dominant groups in the process of identification of a young person with a high degree of significance.Practical significance. The results of the study can be used as a spiritual and moral, value-oriented basis of the education programme in higher education.

“…Therefore, despite living in poverty, they are capable to overcome any challenge and change themselves. This belief is motivated by the responsibilities of a mother, arising after their life changes from being single into having a family and children (Kroger, 2015) while participating to earn a living-which is actually a father's duty (Svensson & Frisén, 2021).…”

This study is a daily experience of a life phenomenon. In this paper, we present how the self-concept of street children’s mothers, who earn a living by allowing their children to work as beggars or street singers at the crossroads in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia. It used a qualitative approach with phenomenological method to explore the self-concept of street children’s mothers. The data was obtained through observation and interview with selected respondent, namely the mothers who have children in the 6 to 10 age group and who earn a living on the street and provide financial support for their family. The results suggested that the mothers of street children feel like their life is always underprivileged, causing unsatisfactory feeling in their own selves. It is considered as a fair occurrence when their children work on the streets, even though the mothers realize that such phenomenon is not right, nor suitable for children.
