Abstract:
Based upon Erik H. Erikson's theory, the development of ego identity during childhood and adolescence is shown. In three main parts (the ages of babyhood, preschool childhood, school age and adolescence), relevant stages of this development are characterized. Case studies taken from the three stages focus on the problems of identity formation and on the therapeutic process.
