We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...

Erikson's Theory on Socioemotional Development during Adolescence
102
Erik Erikson's fifth stage of psychosocial development, "identity versus role confusion," is crucial during adolescence (ages 12 to 18). In this stage, adolescents face the developmental task of forging a distinct personal identity, a process influenced by social, psychological, and biological changes typical of this period. Adolescents naturally explore different roles, behaviors, and ideologies as they navigate complex questions of self-concept, asking, "Who am I?" and...
