According to Erikson, in which of the following stages do young adults face the task of finding a person with whom they can share their identity in an ongoing, close and personal relationship?
Answer: A
According to Erikson, early adulthood is the stage of intimacy versus isolation, in which young adults seek a close, lasting relationship in which they can share their identity. Adolescence is identity versus role confusion, middle adulthood is generativity versus stagnation, and elementary school age is industry versus inferiority. Erikson's eight stages run from trust versus mistrust in infancy to integrity versus despair in old age. In young adulthood the task is to form intimate relationships; failure leads to isolation.
