Erik Erikson believed that people grow and change in specific psychosocial stages, each with an identified crisis that they must resolve.
He proposed that the way in which people resolve these crises will pave the way for how they resolve future crises. This pattern of crisis resolution becomes part of our personality and contributes to our identity (Feist, 2018).
