The study did not find a significant relationship between either cross-cultural experience and identity moratorium, or cross-cultural experience and relativistic thinking, but did between identity moratorium and relativistic thinking.IdentityThird-Culture Kids (TCKs)RelativismNo One Can Place Me in a Box: Exploring the Identity Status of Adult Third Culture Kids
