Question

Ingrid is trying to "find herself." She is traveling to Asia and Europe next month and also plans to attend several career seminars when she returns home. Right now, she is considering a career in engineering and is taking a prerequisite physics course by correspondence. However, she has been talking to her aunt lately about her aunt’s experiences staying home with her kids while she runs a home-based Internet business. All in all, Ingrid feels "up in the air," but she is trying to figure it all out. Which of the following identity statuses best describes Ingrid?- Achievement- Foreclosure- Moratorium- Diffusion

Answer 1

Answer:Moratorium

Explanation:

Identity moratorium is a development stage that follows after identity diffusion (which is when someone hasn't really found their identity but aren't really searching for it) moratorium begins after adolescent.

This is when the person is practically searching and evaluating all their options regarding where they are in life. They evaluate what they have already chosen and think if they should change their first choice such as whether to proceed with college or marry or not to marry etc.

Ingrid had chosen engineering but still she is considering an alternative of whether she can also do like her aunt be a stay home business woman.

If Ingrid succeeds to resolve all of this she will move to the last stage which is identity achievement in which someone has found who they really are.
