Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: Erikson divided the growth of the personality into eight psychosocial stages of development. To Erikson, eight successive stages encompass the life span. At each stage, we must cope with a crisis in either an adaptive or a maladaptive way.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: In his observations of American Indians in South Dakota and in California, Erikson noted certain psychological symptoms that appeared to be related to a sense of alienation from cultural traditions and resulted in the lack of a clear self-image or self-identity. This phenomenon, which Erikson initially called identity confusion, was similar to the condition he had observed among emotionally disturbed veterans after World War II.
