The aim of present research was to study and comparison of identity styles of Shahed adolescent students and its related factors. In this research 366 students between 12-18 years old were selected from Tehran Shahed schools through stratified random sampling method. Data was collected by Identity Styles Inventory (ISI), Adolescence Coping Scale (ACS), and Family Functioning Scale (FFS). Results indicated that: (1) there are any significant differences between male and female students in identity styles except in diffuse/avoidant style, (2) the significant relationship was found between age, family functioning components and identity styles, and (3) a relationship was observed between coping and identity styles. Results showed that identity formation in Shahed adolescents is the same as with other adolescents. In other hand, good affective relationship among family members can be influence in successful identity formation.
