IMAGINARY AUDIENCE AND VOICE IN EMERGING ADULTH...

The author explores the experiences and beliefs of emerging adult students  concerning their
sense of voice and use of imaginary audience. Quantitative analyses revealed differences in
voice and academic standing  and women reported higher feminine gender orientation than did
men. Through qualitative analyses  participants stressed a need for connection and familiarity
comfort  and sense of ease which were associated with higher levels of voice. Participants
using imaginary audience described engaging in it as a method of preparation  a coping
mechanism to deal with discomfort  or  for some  as a form of fantasy. Some of the participants
made connections between imaginary audience and level of voice  suggesting that lower levels of
voice may be associated with greater use of imaginary audience. These findings provide valuable
information for those who serve emerging adults in academic environments.
