Psychosocial Dilemmas

Instructions

Erik Erikson developed the theory that we face a “crisis” at each stage of our development. He supported the belief that how we are able to overcome these crises in our life can influence what kind of person we become and can influence our life’s journey. For this assignment you are going to reflect on Erikson’s theory by creating a chart. Your chart must include:
• “Age Range” column
• “Stage” column
• “Consequences and Solutions” column
Place your answer to the following question in the “Consequences and Solutions” column:
What do I think will happen if a balance isn’t achieved in each stage and healthy development is stunted?
