Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Erikson's theory is based on the idea that each stage of development involves a crisis or conflict that must be resolved in order to develop a healthy personality. These crises continue throughout the lifespan, not just during childhood or adolescence. The resolution of each crisis sets the stage for success or failure in the next stage of development. Role confusion and identity are not resolved by age 5 and psychosocial development is not finished by young adulthood. Healthy people do experience conflict during adult development, but they are able to resolve these conflicts in a positive way.
