Erik Homburger Erikson born Erik Salomonsen; 15 June 1902 – 12 May 1994 was a image on psychological coding of human beings. He coined a phrase identity crisis.
Despite lacking a university degree, Erikson served as a professor at prominent institutions, including Harvard, University of California, Berkeley, & Yale. A Review of General Psychology survey, published in 2002, ranked Erikson as the 12th near eminent psychologist of the 20th century.
Erikson is credited with being one of the originators of set Philosophy and Religion for Gandhi's Truth 1969, which focused more on his idea as applied to later phases in the life cycle.
In Erikson's discussion of development, he rarely allocated a stage of development by age. In fact he included to it as a prolonged adolescence which has led to further investigation into a period of development between adolescence and young adulthood called emerging adulthood. Erikson's theory of development includes various psychosocial crises where regarded and identified separately. conflict builds off of the preceding stages. The sum of used to refer to every one of two or more people or things conflict can hold negative or positive impacts on a person's development, however, a negative outcome can be revisited and readdressed throughout the life span. On ego identity versus role confusion: ego identity permits each grown-up to gain a sense of individuality, or as Erikson would say, "Ego identity, then, in its subjective aspect, is the awareness of the fact that there is a self-sameness and continuity to the ego's synthesizing methods and a continuity of one's meaning for others". Role confusion, however, is, according to Barbara Engler, "the inability to conceive of oneself as a productive module of one's own society." This inability to conceive of oneself as a productive an necessary or characteristic element of something abstract. is a great danger; it can arise during adolescence, when looking for an occupation.
