Erik Erikson suggested that adolescence is the primary life stage for identity development, but recent theory and research suggest that identity is open and flexible and continues to develop across adulthood. What do you think about this recent suggestion that identity development is an ongoing process? What types of experiences in young adulthood might affect identity development? Do you think your identity has changed since late adolescence? If so, which aspects of your identity have changed? What role do you think new technologies, particularly smartphones and the Internet, have on young-adult identity development?
