Sample question
Erikson: identity · medium
Which statement about Erikson's stage of 'identity versus role confusion' is most appropriate for a Class VII–VIII teacher to keep in mind?
- A. Adolescents should be given fixed career labels early to avoid confusion
- B. Peer influence is harmful and should be discouraged completely
- C. Identity is fully settled by the end of childhood
- D. Adolescents need chances to explore roles, interests and values without being labelled prematurely
Show answer and explanation
Answer: D
In adolescence the main task is forming a coherent sense of self. Exploring options with support helps; early labelling or suppressing peer interaction can lead to foreclosure or confusion. Identity is not settled in childhood.
