Abstract
This study aims to assess the development of personal identity among nursing students and evaluate the association between personal identity and demographic variables. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at a Ganga Nursing College in Coimbatore, involving 100 nursing students chosen through purposive sampling. The research employed a structured questionnaire to assess personal identity development, with data analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The study findings revealed significant patterns in personal identity development based on age, family income, and hometown location. Students aged 21-22 and 23 and above exhibited stronger identity levels, suggesting that identity development strengthens with age. Gender was not significantly associated with personal identity development, though males predominantly showed strong identity levels. Higher family income brackets were correlated with stronger personal identity, with those from ?40,000-60,000 and above ?60,000 brackets showing more pronounced identity development. Urban residents demonstrated stronger identity levels compared to their tribal counterparts, who predominantly fell into the uncertain category. Statistical analysis confirmed that age, family income, and hometown location significantly impact personal identity development, while gender did not. These results suggest the importance of targeted interventions, especially for students from lower-income and tribal backgrounds, to support personal identity formation
