This volume represents a breakthrough discussion of the research
issues surrounding innovative pedagogies. Using service-learning as
its focus, it explores ways in which researchers and evaluators can
study a teaching and learning approach that has multiple goals,
including both academic and affective development. The chapter
authors show how to study a topic that is multilayered, complex,
and involves the ways in which individuals make meaning of their
experiences.

Linking research and educational practice for the benefit of both
is not a new idea. If practice such as service-learning is a bold
departure from the status quo, however, research is not just
beneficial, it is critical. If schools are to become laboratories
of democracy and entrepreneurship, and if students are to become
engaged as partners in renewal of their communities, a research
case must be made for service-learning. Does learning take place?
Will other kinds of learning suffer? What kinds of practice are
most effective? Clearly, solid research is essential if this
transforming way of teaching and learning is to be fully integrated
into American schooling and youth development institutions.
Ego Identity: A Handbook for Psychosocial Research contains an integrated presentation of identity theory, literature reviews covering the hundreds of research studies on identity, a discussion of the techniques of interviewing for psychosocial constructs, and model Identity Status Interviews and scoring manuals for three age groups: early- and middle- adolescence, the college years and adulthood. Special attention is devoted to questions of the personality and social patterns associ ated with differing approaches to the task of identity formation, the processes and patterns of identity development, and the similarities and differences with which females and males form their sense of identity. Theory and research on Erikson's concept of intimacy is presented, including the Intimacy Status Interview and scoring manual. This handbook is also designed to serve as a model for those interested in developing and using interview techniques for any of the other Eriksonian stages of psychosocial development. This book is ideal for researchers of ego identity and intimacy, practitioners and graduate students in developmental, personality, and social psychology as well as to psychiatrists.
