成人日记和小说写的英国女权主义者和和平主义者维拉布里坦（1893-1970）的内容分析埃里克森的主题的身份，亲密，和生成性。布里坦对身份和亲密关系的关注随着时间的推移而减少，而她对生殖的关注则增加，这表明她在中年日记和小说中表达了生殖与停滞的问题。大量的身份主题相对于亲密性和生成性激起了人们对布里坦的个性，作家的特点，性别的影响，社会的影响，以及身份危机与角色混乱涉及人格发展的最后一个主要结构变化的可能性的猜测。这个档案案例研究是符合埃里克森的概念，一系列的关注与心理社会问题，虽然理论的修订和阐述的方向进行了讨论。
Adult diaries and novels written by the British feminist and pacifist Vera Brittain (1893-1970) were content analyzed for Eriksonian themes of identity, intimacy, and generativity. Brittain's concerns with identity and intimacy decreased over time, while her generative concerns increased, suggesting that she expressed the issue of generativity vs. stagnation in her mid-life diaries and fiction. The large number of identity themes relative to both intimacy and generativity provokes speculations about Brittain's personality, the characteristics of writers, the influence of gender, the impact of society, and the possibility that the crisis of identity vs. role confusion involves the last major structural change in personality development. This archival case study is consistent with Erikson's notion of a sequence of concerns with psychosocial issues, although directions for theoretical revision and elaboration are discussed.
