CRITICAL THINKING ASSIGNMENT #2
Chapter 7
YOU/Marcia/Erikson: 14 points
I am going to assign you a short case scenario that will require you to incorporate three
perspectives. This will include your own perspective, the perspective of theorist Erik Erikson,
and the perspective of theorist James Marcia.
You are to address A, then B, and then C in this APA formatted paper.
This means you will have an APA cover page, and an APA reference page.
You will use the textbook on your reference page,
as well as TWO other creditable sources for EACH theorist.
This means you will have a total of at least 5 Creditable sources on your reference page. If
you do not have 5 creditable references, deductions will occur.
Erik Erikson is a developmental psychologist and psychoanalyst known for his theory of
Psychosocial Development. Erikson is addressed throughout this book and his psychoanalytic
theory identifies a series of eight stages in which a healthy developing individual should pass
through from infancy to late adulthood.
You are to read and research Erik Erikson’s theory of “Eight Stages of Development”.
Erickson’s 8 stages begin on page 321, chapter 7, however additional research will be required to
ensure a comprehensive understanding of this theory.
James Marcia is a developmental psychologist who expanded on Erikson’s Stages of
Psychosocial Development. His research and writings have largely focused on adolescent
development. His work was to identify and classify processes that adolescents go through when
they experience identity crises.
You are to read and research James Marcia’s theory on the Four Identity Statuses. Marcia’s 4
Identity Statuses are listed on page 326, in chapter 7. However, additional research will be
required to ensure a comprehensive understanding of this theory.
If you are not familiar with APA guidelines you may contact the Writing Center on the Dothan
