Abstract

The purpose of this photovoice constructivist grounded theory study is to examine the developmental process of the intersections of a transborder identity for Transfronterizx college students from the San Diego-Tijuana border region by identifying the psychosocial and cognitive-structural factors that influence their identity. In this study I will present a transborder identity development model grounded on the participants’ thoughts, feelings, and experiences about the intersections of their identities, transborder interactions and social environments that shape their psychosocial and cognitive- structural development.
