Auburn University Adams (1997), Berzonksy (1997), and Grotevant (1997) provided disceming comnentary on the strengths of using a control theory approach to guide research on identity development. They highlighted critical issues and provided suggestions for expanding the identity control theory model. Our response to these comments focuses on the overarching meta-model; the origination and nature of identity standards; thefit of the control theory model with existing identityframeworks; andthe utilityof the nodelforaddressing important issues of developmental shifts, individual diferences, and cultural context.
