    Erikson's main idea of what happens if you do not master the conflict of a given age (the equivalent of a Freudian fixation) is identity crisis. Each conflict has two parts: the successful outcome one wants, and the negative outcome which comes from failing to master the conflict. Tye conflict of adolescence is identity vs confusion. If one should fail to master this conflict, they will be confused as to who they are, will not feel like they fit in, and will waver between varying personality types in an effort to discover their identity.
