The least mature status, and one common in many children, is identity diffusion. However, more recent research, suggests that few leave this age period with identity achievement, and that most identity formation occurs during young adulthood (CoМ‚teМЂ, 2006).Д®xpanding on EriksonвЂ™s theory, James Marcia (2010) identified four identity statuses that represent the four possible combinations of the dimension of commitment and exploration (see Table 6.2). Those who are unsuccessful at resolving this stage may either withdraw further into social isolation or become lost in the crowd. The culmination of this exploration is a more coherent view of oneself. During adolescence we experience psychological moratorium, where teens put on hold commitment to an identity while exploring the options. Erikson saw this as a period of confusion and experimentation regarding identity and oneвЂ™s life path. Teens struggle with the question вЂњWho am I?вЂќ This includes questions regarding their appearance, vocational choices and career aspirations, education, relationships, sexuality, political and social views, personality, and interests. Role ConfusionД®rikson believed that the primary psychosocial task of adolescence was establishing an identity.

Self-esteem rises from mid to late adolescence for most teenagers, especially if they feel competent in their peer relationships, their appearance, and athletic abilities (Birkeland, Melkivik, Holsen, & Wold, 2012). These drops are usually temporary, unless there are additional stressors such as parental conflict, or other family disruptions (De Wit, Karioja, Rye, & Shain, 2011). Self-esteem often drops when children transition from one school setting to another, such as shifting from elementary to middle school, or junior high to high school (Ryan, Shim, & Makara, 2013). In addition to the academic, social, appearance, and physical/athletic dimensions of self-esteem in middle and late childhood, teens also add perceptions of their competency in romantic relationships, on the job, and in close friendships (Harter, 2006). Harter also found that older teens add values and moral standards to their self-descriptions.ДЄs self-concept differentiates, so too does self-esteem.

Harter (2012) found that adolescents emphasize traits such as being friendly and considerate more than do children, highlighting their increasing concern about how others may see them. вЂњWhich one is really me?вЂќ may be the refrain of the young teenager. With their parents they may seem angrier and sullen, with their friends they are more outgoing and goofier, and at work they are quiet and cautious. These contradictions, along with the teenвЂ™s growing recognition that their personality and behavior seem to change depending on who they are with or where they are, can lead the young teen to feel like a fraud. Young teens may see themselves as outgoing but also withdrawn, happy yet often moody, and both smart and completely clueless (Harter, 2012).

However, the teenвЂ™s understanding of self is often full of contradictions. Their ability to think of the possibilities and to reason more abstractly may explain the further differentiation of the self during adolescence.
