Narrative identity is a story of human internalization and ongoing development, unifying the reconstructed past and the imaginary future, providing a degree of unity and purpose of life. In a recent study on narrative identity, researchers are very concerned about (a) psychological adaptation and (b) development. Studies on the relationship between the story of life and adaptation is a talker who finds meaning of redemption in suffering and adversity, and a talker who builds a story of life by personal agent and exploration, at a higher level of mental health and It tends to enjoy happiness. And it matured. . Researchers are developing narrative identity, clarifying strategies for complex meanings from conversations between parents and their young children, and tracking personal stories from adolescence to adulthood Did. Future researchers should (a) elucidate the causal relationship between the features of the life story and positive psychological adaptation, and (b) further explore the role of broad cultural background in narrative identity development is necessary.

Person 's narrative identity is a personality - related personality, but it differs from the extensive personality traits (5 majors) and context - dependent adaptation described in Dan McAdams' 3 - tier framework. The characteristics of trends derived from the 5 factor personality model are relatively stable throughout the lifecycle and are extensive non-contextualization descriptors that can be used to map comparisons between individuals. Feature adaptation includes individual motives, development of concerns and life strategy, and is used to describe individuals in contextual, regional and social roles. The narrative identity, "the 3 rd level" of the "Mc Adams" framework contains internalized evolving self-stories. Some people think that if you evaluate all three levels at the same time, personality description of all those people will be obtained.

Dan P. McAdams is a leader in the field of social science and recently studies the narrative method of human life, that is, the method of putting stories at the center of the story. His writings, including books and published articles, are based on the authors' experience of years of research and dialogue with people in years of psychology practice. Because they are based on the experience and results of research activities, they are widely read and provide scientific evidence. The following discussion of aspects relating to narrative psychology, self-understanding of stories, and aspects related to the formation of personal identities in stories, mainly based on his writings and research, in a detailed description of the role of the story in modern psychology is there. Other modern psychologists have conducted other related studies and observations on the same subject (eg, some important ideas in McAdams' story psychology will be introduced now).
