Erik Erikson’s Identity Vs Role Confusion - Psychosocial Development in Adolescence

In this lecture, we will review the Psychosocial Development in Adolescence; Erik Erikson’s Stages Of Psychosocial Development - Stage 5. Identity Vs. Role Confusion. The fifth stage of Erik Erikson’s theory of psychosocial development is identity vs. role confusion, and it occurs during adolescence, from about 12-18 years. During this stage, adolescents search for a sense of self and personal identity, through an intense exploration of personal values, beliefs, and goals (McLeod, 2023). According to Erikson, this is important to forming a strong identity and developing a sense of direction in life. The adolescent mind is essentially a mind or moratorium, a psychosocial stage between childhood and adulthood, between the morality learned by the child and the ethics to be developed by the adult (Erikson, 1963, p. 245).
