Cover Story: A positive identity is essential to the well-being of adolescents and their successful transition to adulthood. Considering the influence of the ecology of adolescents in line with relational developmental systems theories, we assessed how adult social support at home, school and in the neighborhood can enhance positive identities among young people in Norway, along with their hierarchy of importance. While our findings indicated positive associations between adult support in all three ecological contexts and positive identity and at least one of its four dimensions (personal power, self-esteem, a sense of purpose, and a positive view of future), the support received from significant adults in the neighborhood appeared to be more important for positive youth identities, followed by support at home, and then school.
