My context map shows aspects of my life, and how the aspect makes me feel whether it is good or bad.
The four types of identities based on the chapter
Foreclosed Identity: one in which an individual has committed to a life direction or way of
being without exploring it carefully and without experimenting with
alternatives...either thrust upon a person...or simply accepted with little
reflection.
Diffused Identity: a state in which there has been little exploration or
active consideration of a particular identity and no psychological commitment
to one...easily influenced by others and often change rapidly from one belief
or representation to another to fit into changing contexts.
Identity
Moratorium: a developmental state in which one actively explores roles
and beliefs, behaviors, and relationships, but refrains from making a
commitment...often accompanied by a great deal of anxiety due to the competing
demands experienced in the exploration of the authentic ‘me’ and the immediacy
with which a lack of identity cohesion is felt.
Achieved Identity:
occurs when the identity crisis is resolved and the commitment to the selected
identity is high...the individual has successfully integrated his ego-identity
needs from the past, within the present, and into the future and can therefore
display a certain level of self-acceptance and ego strength across changing
contexts.
