Abstract
Background: Self-identity is a personal reflection that is consistent and covers various individual aspects, such as
job/career, spirituality, relations, intellectuality, sexuality, culture, interests, personality, and physical identity. The
increasing level of juvenile delinquency worldwide, including in Indonesia, is a manifestation of unsuccessful
identity development in adolescents. Self-identity development is inseparable from family influence. This study
aimed to explore the experiences of families in facilitating their adolescents during self-identity development while
living in ex-localization.
Methods: This study used a descriptive qualitative design and involved 12 participants. Data were collected
through in-depth interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis.
Results: This study resulted in five themes: the identity achievement of adolescents living in ex-localization is
similar to that of adolescents in general; the domination of external barriers during identity achievement; exlocalization
as a stressor; families’ efforts to facilitate their adolescents during identity achievement; and family
expectations for the future.
Conclucions: This study highlights the importance of improving family awareness of adolescents’ identity
achievement when living in ex-localization with the help of nursing mental health professionals.
