Erikson's theory of psychosocial development views ego identity achievement to be a crucial period in one’s life. Although the theory generated a great deal of interest for a time, current models of the self-concept tend to ignore it. This study examined the relationships between Erikson’s notion of identity status and several current self-related variables hypothesized to be antecedents and consequences of achieved identity. Degree of parental care and trust predicted identity achievement, which in turn predicted secure attachment and vitality. Identity achievement was also associated with measures of ego strength and development and with discrepancies between actual and ideal selves. Implications of Erikson's theory for modern views of the self are discussed.
