James Marcia's Adolescent Identity Development

[@gizmatron]

i was reading my textbook and i found that i had a lot of trouble understanding this theory. you explained it very well and kept the video short, so thank you!!!!

[@CarlyMoulier]

Everyone needs to understand this concept. Thank you for putting it out there in this way. Super helpful!

[@SeeBlakeSmith]

I'm in a human Lifespan Development class for my psych degree, and this theory is so jars for me to grasp. I wanted to challenge myself to use it in the paper that I have due soon, but couldn't. THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME MAKE SENSE OF IT!!!

[@ivanbronkhorst2706]

Love how you used underwater basket-weaving as a go-to example for a career! ha-ha-ha... great video thanks for the help! :)

[@elleschlittler2546]

I'm an online student and I just discovered your videos while working on an assignment. I wish I had you as a teacher! This was a FANTASTIC explanation of something my textbook explains poorly and briefly. Thank you for making this video and making it public.

[@mom2jakenick]

I use "underwater basket weaving" as an example all the time!!! Great video. I'm going to share this with my classes! Thank you!

[@calivalley9056]

I'm 42 and just retired from the military and trying figure out what I'm going to do next. First career was never really what I wanted to do. Now majoring in psychology, which is why I am here, and not sure it is for me just yet. I have always been interested in construction engineering. Having just watched your video it seems I could have done a little more exploration. Might give it a couple more classes but I'm thinking I may need to change my major. I'm living this theory and in the MAMA stage. Thanks for some good insight and a great video!

[@StocksAndBeemers]

Cali Valley hey MAMA stage is better than the others. I’m in M now but as a 17 year old. It’s kind of scary but I know I will be looking at different things until it fits. Hopefully I find a nice girl tho lmao

[@claudiaphoenix6211]

Same Here, I Studied Engineering systems when I was 20, now I'm 29 and I started to study Psychology, life takes many turns

[@sunshine8338]

Good onya mate, how's the progress going?

[@yisayansomc9684]

I have been given a Research on ideelntity development and it has been a very big problem for to clearly put to came out with all that is required of me

[@SalmonMage]

This is amazing. The textbook example was sort of clear, but felt lacking and you've explained it so well. THANK YOU!

[@AntonMaslo]

“Let's keep it simple” (puts low above high), I'm sure glad I keep going through my moratoriums to achievements in math, this would break my brain ;) Thanks for a nice clear overview! (sorry for teasing)

[@Kiranyadav216-a6m]

Absolutely loved your way of explanation. Your teaching made this theory so easyy. Many thanks. 🙌

[@charibp.f.2488]

My go to video when I study the adolescent identity development! Thank you!

[@66mbeat]

This video is absolutely amazing and so helpful in understanding Marcia's theory. Thank you!

[@theegress3131]

This was one of the best videos I’ve ever watched on the topic. Thank you!!!

[@samirak2292]

This is not only extremely helpful but also pleasent to watch! Thank you.

[@CBUAdvising]

Very good explanation. I've relied on Marcia's Matrix as an advisor since first learning of it in grad school in the early 90's.

[@drkhan5401]

Thank you so much ma'am Kim E for making it so easy to understand

[@Duc29301]

Wow! very nice and clear explanation and presentation. Thank You, great teacher.

[@zanniest]

I really like this explanation. I actually enjoy it more when people teach using real life examples rather than sticking to definitions. ;)

[@jethrocyrus3608]

are you writing backwards?!!? wow

[@kleatonwtcc]

Hah! No I am not nearly that clever. I'm writing on a "Lightboard" and they use software to flip the image after recording the video :)

[@jethrocyrus3608]

Ohh. Haha. Great video, even so. Easy to understand.

[@phanvy5751]

@@kleatonwtcc That's fantastic, professor! Thank you so much for your comprehensive lecture.

[@phanvy5751]

@@kleatonwtcc Actually I'm working on this in a literary research, I am using this theory to explain the psychological aspects of Huck - the main character in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn written by Mark Twain. Thank you so much, teacher! Love from Vietnam!

[@cometogripps]

@@kleatonwtcc hi kim! Do you mind to share the name of the software?

[@siriusblue884]

Your positivity made my day. Thank you

[@iska788]

Wow, thank you ! That was fantastic. I am writing my PhD on identity formation and this is really helpful !

[@maritzaordonez7167]

Hello, Ms. Eaton. Thank you for this video. I agree that settling to do a job without exploring the options out there must be disastrous.

[@ELILevel3]

Amazingly clear and relatable--and thank you SO MUCH for captioning your content instead of using the auto captions! I teach DHH students and this is going to be so useful.

[@elijahj-l825]

Wow. This explaination was needed and amazing! & I'm not even studying this, I just got curious. I'm still searching though! Pray for me y'all (trying new things👍🏾)

[@19AB99]

Thank you so much! Was having a bit of trouble wrapping my head around the differences of the stages, but this cleared it right up! You explained it really well and the chart is such a clever idea! Definitely will help with my revision!

[@alialhussaini2299]

WOW Very awesome Thank you Mrs. Eaton , you are a great lecturer

[@carlo8162]

Best breakdown of a concept yet. I was cramming and this was perfect. Thank you Kim!

[@Angelica-vu3nk]

Such a clear and concise explanation! So helpful for my research.

[@vijayagowri2000]

THANK YOU! This has been incredibly helpful! Do update more such topics with your detailed explanation and baffling backword handwriting!

[@StocksAndBeemers]

My friends dad was is a surgeon. Around his 45-ish age mark he joined the army, got shipped off to Afghanistan and his family was like WTF. I believe now after this video he went through moratorium, achieved identity , then had that questioning period again and is now home but with some crazy life experiences.

[@amyvazquez236]

I love the way you explained this, short and to the point. Thank you.

[@Tomas-wf2ye]

Really great explanation, easy to understand, thank you so much!

[@meilong2190]

I love your saying: crisis is not a thing, middle-life crisis is not a thing!

[@nehale4693]

This is soo helpful. Probably the most easiest way to learn this theory. Thank you!!!

[@laurenelizabeth2592]

This made the theory so much easier to understand

[@jenniferonopa-torres5192]

Thank you so much! I was really struggling with the difference between Foreclosure and achievement but thanks to you, I've got it drilled into my brain

Bless you! I was having a hard time with these concepts and you spelled them out so well!

[@Awesome_Force]

Cool. I watched this for my Human Development Across the Lifespan class. I'm in my 30s and retraining to be a teacher. Not from not knowing what I want, but more from not being able to afford it until now.

[@ngozi5687]

You explained this excellently! Thank you, my understanding of this is much better now.

[@olivia5527]

It took my constant identity diffusion to steer my boyfriend of 3 years away. This also has steered me into the moratorium stage. :)
