Lesson 3: Thoughts, Feelings and Behaviors in Actual Life Situations

According to Erik Erikson, adolescence stage of Psychosocial development, also known


as “identity vs. role confusion” is the stage wherein teens need to develop the sense of self
and personal identity. At this point, teenagers start to have circle of friends in which they build
their trust.
Thoughts
- impression activated by a stimulus in your mind that is evident from the environment that
you are in
Emotions
- Consciousness that give life to thoughts.
Feelings
- Expression of emotions.
Action
- bodily reaction made based on our feelings
Thoughts, feelings, and behavior do not necessarily have to be of the same succeeding
level or intensity that one of them may contradict or control the others.
That is the reason that as a responsible adolescent, it is imperative that you evaluate
yourself through self-assessment.
Self-assessment is your own assessment of your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors which
is completely necessary for you to arrive to an informed decision
However, while decisions may be individual, these are affected by factors like values,
goals, and positive affiliations.
In the study of B. Bradford Brown entitled The Psychology of Adolescence, he wrote that
the aforementioned factors are affected by positive family and community context,
emphasizing that skills to deal with anxiety and adversity are also keys.
Hence, an individual must be able to assess himself or herself accurately prior to making
decisions as the outcomes of his or her actions can be the reflections of how he or she is
raised, chooses peers, and deals with the community.
