The sample consisted of 617 undergraduate students from five universities and colleges in Northern Taiwan. Instruments used in this study were “Scale of Self- Differentiation” (including “Scale of Differentiation With Father ”, “ Scale of Differentiation With Mother ” , ”Scale of Detriangling ”) , ”Scale of Social Activity Experience ” and “ the revised version of the Extended Objective Measure of Ego Identity Status”. Data obtained in this study were analyzed by multiple stepwise regression and multivariate analysis of variance. The main findings were as follows: 1. There were relationships between self-differentiation and ego identity status The results indicated that self-differentiation could significantly predict ego identity status, and the amount it could account for the variance of ego identity status was between 1% and 12.5%. 2. There were relationships between self-differentiation and social activity experience The results indicated that self-differentiation could significantly predict social activity experience and the amount it could account for the variance of social activity experience was between 1% and 10.1%. 3.There were relationships between social activity experience and ego identity status The results indicated that social activity experience could significantly predict ego identity status, and the amount it could account for the variance of ego identity status was between 1% and 10.1%. 4.There were relationships among self-differentiation、social activity experience and ego identity status The results indicated that self-differentiation and social activity experience could significantly predict part of ego identity status, and the amount it could account for the variance of ego identity status was between 8.2% and 13%. 5. The variances of ego identity status showed by students with different background variables (1) Significant gender differences were found on ego identity status. The differences in the ego identity status between male and female subjects include Ideology- Achievement and Interpersonal-Foreclosure. (2) Significant grade differences were found on ego identity status. The third-grade students’ score was significantly higher than that of the first-grade and the second- grade students on Ideology- Achievement. The fourth-grade students’ score was significantly lower than that of the first-grade, the second-grade and the third-grade students on Interpersonal-Diffusion. (3) Significant college differences were found on ego identity status. The physical education college students’ score was significantly higher than the education and liberal arts college students’ on Ideology- Foreclosure. The engineering and science college students’ score was significantly higher than the education and liberal arts college students’ on Interpersonal-Foreclosure. (4) No differences on ego identity status were found among students participating in different clubs. In other words, the clubs that the students participated in didn’t affect the students’ ego identity status. Based on the results, implications of this study for parenting and guidance were discussed, and suggestions for further research were proposed.
