Revolving.

We were asked to do a research on Psychosocial: Erik Erikson's Theory. Erikson' Theory got 8 stages and one of them is Intimacy vs Isolation.

Here's my result:

Intimacy vs. Isolation is the the psychological conflict of early adulthood, which is resolved positively when young adults give up some of their newfound independece and make a permanent commitment to an intimate partner.

The Intimacy vs. Isolation conflict occurs in early adulthood. The developmental task of this stage is to establish intimate bonds of love and friendship. This psychological conflict involves individuals establishing intimate ties with others. If this is not completed individuals will remain in isolation.

Over time, research has proven that in order to have a secure intimate connection with someone, a person has to have a firm grasp on who they are as a person, or a firm identity. Dedication to beliefs and goals that are important to young adults set them up for later commitments once they hit early adulthood. Researchers have shown that love and loyalty in a relationship works best when the person has gained a positive and strong identity.

Aside from affecting partnership relationships, intimacy and isolation affects friendships and social ties as well. Young adults who have gained a sense of intimacy do not mind being alone but when put in social situations are understanding and open-minded with others. On the other hand, young adults who have not gained that intimate attitude and who have moved more towards isolation are not as accepting and do not form close bonds with others they come in contact with.
