Özet:
This dissertation combines the stress process model and the perceptual control model found within identity theory to examine the conditions under which a major social role generates psychological distress. Through three interrelated studies using survey data from 726 registered nurses, I examine (1) how identity discrepancy mediates the effects of job conditions on nurses' well-being using a stress process approach; (2) the extent to which nurses are able to leverage psychological coping resources to protect their mental health; and (3) whether traditional analytic approaches to identity discrepancy are fully capturing the potential of identity theory to show how self and reflected appraisals of identity performances generate negative emotional outcomes.
Results indicate that identity discrepancy serves as a partial mediator of job conditions, but that such conditions also have sizeable independent effects on mental health. Findings also suggest that having control over one's work tends to increase identity verification and that this relationship is particularly strong among nurses who report high levels of psychological coping resources. And finally, results from the third study indicate that experiencing a discrepancy among some identity-related meanings may be more threatening to the self than those for other meanings---findings that are not likely to be uncovered when using traditional, difference score measures of identity verification. The dissertation concludes with reflections on the implications of these results, the practical challenges facing researchers who combine identity theory with the stress process approach, and a call for identity theory scholars to continue exploring alternative, theoretically-consistent, methods for measuring identity discrepancy.
