Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to James Marcia's identity status theory, the four identity statuses are foreclosure, diffusion, moratorium, and achievement. Foreclosure is when an individual adopts an identity without exploration, and diffusion is when an individual has not yet explored different identity options. Both of these statuses are considered unhealthy because they do not involve active exploration and decision-making. On the other hand, moratorium and achievement are considered healthy routes to mature self-definition. Moratorium is when an individual is actively exploring different identity options, while achievement is when an individual has successfully gone through exploration and made commitments to their chosen identity options. Therefore, the correct answer is D, as it lists both the healthy routes to mature self-definition, moratorium and achievement.
