Abstract
Gender and Ethnic/Racial identity measures (typicality, contentedness, and felt pressure) were adapted for use with emerging adults (143 undergraduates). The multidimensional nature of gender and ethnic/racial identity was supported by moderate correlations among the identity measures within and across groups. Moreover, gender and ethnic/racial typicality independently predicted self-esteem and loneliness.
