Answer to Question 1

Erikson's theory is somewhat of a bridge between Freud's psychobiological theory and interactionist theories. He accepts Freud's idea that early family experiences are key, but believes that experiences later in life can change the personality. He incorporates Mead's view of personality formation through interaction with significant others, and his idea of identification is similar to Mead's concepts of role taking and the generalized other.
