Social Pressure

The study focuses mainly on the predictors of identity and its effect on the psychosocial development of adolescents. These factors that were found in the study are family and peers. Qualitative and quantitative research designs were used and 180 respondents participated in the study. It was known that adolescents have already acquired personal, relational, social and collective identities. They express their search for identity by facing three major issues; individual expression, autonomy and social pressure. It was also discovered that identity formation cannot be achieved by the end of adolescence because most of them are still in the state of moratorium and foreclosure.

Despite nearly a century of considered opinion to the contrary, an electromagnetic self-field theory has been developed for atomic systems consisting of charged parti- cles. An azimuthal modal spinor is used as a trial solution for the motions of each particle and tested using Maxwell’s equations for particle-field interactions. Both the particles and the field are seen in terms of coupled spinors associated with elec- tric and magnetic fields. Unconventionally, the particle electric and magnetic fields are measured between centers of motion and not between charge points. Maxwell’s curl equations are seen as a balance of the electric and magnetic kinetic energies with a particle’s total energy and a balance of its electric and magnetic potential energies. The theory results in a system of inhomogeneous equations, the unknowns being the coupled spinors of each particle: four equations for the electron and also for the proton in the hydrogen atom and two conjugate pairs of equations for each particle. The modal equations for the electron yield analytic solutions for the reso- nant frequencies, the radii, the Rydberg constant, and the Balmer series. The modal equations for the proton give an estimate for the size of the proton.
