Erikson’s Theory: Identity vs. Role Confusion

In this article, we will mainly focus on Ericsson 's theory about confusion of identity and role. Finding a person's identity is not always an easy task. Like Ericsson, everyone experienced an identity crisis at some point in his or her life. Everyone experiences various struggles, which can positively or negatively affect my identity. On the way to identity, I achieved identity, which means I have explored and committed. I will also focus on two articles, focusing on the fifth possible outcome of identity and treating the status of identity as a development trajectory.

The fifth phase of Ericsson's theory is that identity and role are confused, beyond puberty - to be about 10 to 20 years old. According to Ericsson, the challenge for young people is to decide who they are and where they are. With the adolescence coming on, these problems become particularly important as teenagers face most choices. As a therapist, I can not ignore some of my own problems and the fact that there may be some circumstances in my remedy reminding me of some of my own history. When I saw Anna's case, I was worried that her mother had been abandoned by her mother when she was a child. If all mothers are like me, that would be cute

The most frequently confirmed by Erikson is the confusion of identity and role. This article attempts to study the experience and influence of being a lesbian on the stage of Ericsson. The information in this article is mainly from "Progress through life" on page 40-41. We have many identities that are considered part of American cultural heritage. For the purposes of this article, I exclude other countries and cultures for unity and length. Ericsson's study led him to several developmental stages from infancy to adulthood.

The development of personality is mainly studied by the theory of psychosocial development of Ericsson. Ericsson's theory includes eight levels of psychosocial development and these theories are arranged in the following order: Phase 1 - trust and disbelief phase 2 - Autonomy and shame and suspicion Phase 3 - Initiative and Guilt Stage 4 - Industry and Disadvantage 5 - Identity and Chaos (Adolescence: 12 - 20 Years) Stage 6 - Intimacy and Isolation Stage 7 - Stage of Generation and War Stage 8 - Stage of Integrity and Despair 5th of the Ericsson Theory The stage reflects adolescence. In the meantime, Erikson insists that individuals ask questions and explore their identity and their role in society. In addition, those who did not overcome the identity crisis did not form a stable identity, became enthusiastic about delayed behaviors and actions, said that it is difficult to form and maintain a close relationship in life.
