Personality, Social Cognition, and Spirituality,” Erik Erikson’s final stage of development is discussed. In his theory of psychosocial development, the last stage – Integrity vs. Despair – usually happens in late adulthood (65+ years). During this stage, people reflect on their lives and either feel a sense of fulfillment and acceptance (integrity) or experience regret and dissatisfaction (despair).
Use the following questions to guide the development of your initial post. Be sure to frame your responses in terms of Erickson’s final stage of development.
- Considering where you are in life right now, what habits or choices could you start making to build a stronger sense of integrity as you grow older?
- Are there areas of your life you would like to change or improve?
- How does thinking about your future self influence how you care for and maintain your well-being today?
- How do you think subjective well-being impacts your ability to reflect on life with integrity?
- How can facing difficulties and working through challenges help with personal growth and emotional well-being over time, ultimately leading to a greater sense of integrity?
