One thing that occurs in this stage, which is stage four, is that it is where the child could gain a great self-esteem from their peer group. In the stage of Industry vs Inferiority, it occurs from ages of five to twelve. In this case, cancer affects her development negatively.
Erikson declares that when a person experiences a psychosocial crisis it could have a positive or negative outcome for personality development. Cancer is the factor that plays a huge roll in Hazel Grace’s life. Since his theory describes eight stages that fit Hazel’s challenging developmental crisis due to cancer.
In this film and novel, I chose the developmental theory of Psychoanalytical theory which was born from Erik Erikson. Time passes after they discuss over the novel and Augustus surprises Hazel that he had contacted the author and that the author, Van Houten said he would only answer Hazel’s question about the novel’s ending in person taking them on an adventure that they never saw coming in the end where they find love, sadness, and happiness. This novel coincidently is about a girl who has cancer. Such as reading but precisely the novel “An Imperial Affliction”. Augustus and Hazel come to learn that they are very similar with just as similar interests. Augustus no longer has cancer as his osteosarcoma was rid of through leg amputation. However, he is there to support his friend Isaac who currently has cancer as Hazel does at this point in the novel. Upon one of these meetings, she meets Augustus Waters who has had cancer himself. Due to her mother’s request she attends a support group for cancer patients. She is a seventeen- year -old girl who has had cancer for a while now. Hazel Grace is the protagonist in the novel, as she is the center of the story and the major character.
