Psychosocial Theory of Erik Erikson Erikson completed the psychoanalytic theory where he explained the life development of a person from infancy up to adulthood. The stages are grounded on specific developmental tasks at a given age (American Chemical Journal, 2013.). This means that each stage is fixed and has specific time models. Erikson also pointed out the effect of social interaction, environment and the significant events on one’s self-identity and in the society. The unique in psychosocial theory is what Erikson called crisis which is the challenging point into one’s individuality.
Ego identity is the central element of Erikson’s theory (Erikson, 1968, as cited in Carver & Scheier, 2007). Ego identity is the conscious sense of self, which is derived from the social reality.

A person will either feel a sense of competency or inadequacy, depending on how well each stage of development is managed. There are eight stages of development (Erikson, 1950, as cited in Dunkel & Sefcek, 2007).

As a child I was bullied in school which has had a negative effect on my self-image and confidence. Some of those experiences still have an effect on my decisions today. On the flip side of that, the military exposed me to situations where I needed to have confidence, or at least make it look like I am confident.
