  1. Acknowledgment of Country The Bentley campus enjoys the privilege of being located in Whadjuk/Nyungar country on the site where the Swan and Canning Rivers meet. The area is one of the most significant places that sustained the life and wellbeing of the traditional owners that gathered along the banks of the rivers. As a representative of Curtin University I/we are proud to honour the Nyungar people and value this place of shared learning. I/we recognise the historical impacts of the past and as active participants in reconciliation we are committed to strengthening an equal partnershipthat will honour the past, present and future. We go forward with honour and respect, by acknowledging the Elders of Nyungar Nation past and present, their descendents and families, sovereign owners of Whadjuk country.

PRESENT: Redefining their identity as they progress in life and being exposed to new situations. FUTURE: “Identity becomes more and more complex” is fluid and changes.

  7. “A continuous process of comparing present commitments with alternative ones” (Klimstra, Luyckx, Kale, Frijns, Lier and Meeus, 2011, 192) • People continuously go through stages of reconsideration of current commitments to formulate new ones. (Klimstra, Luyckx, Kale, Frijns, Lier and Meeus, 2011) • Commitments: personal ideas about the self. The search for identity raises early questions during adolescence as it is when you begin to move away from their childhood identifications. • Idea of identity being influenced by the individuals narrative starts in these adolescent times.

  9. In group environments the self identity is reflected in the people you surround yourself with. • This is because of our need for self verification “Self verification assumes that people base their identities on the treatment they receive from others” (Swann, Gomez,Seyle, Morales and Huici, 2009)
