  on it throughout our lifespan until it is
  resolved and it might affect later stages

Erik EriksonIdentity vs. Role Confusion

• The primary social accomplishment for
  adolescents, according to Erikson is to develop
  an identity or live a life filled with role
  confusion.

  testing roles and then integrating them to form a
  single identity, or they become confused about
  who they are.
