Francine has worked hard to become a successful female journalist, and she is happy to live alone and independent with her two cats. How would Erikson MOST LIKELY describe Francine’s adult choice

Erikson (1950) would describe Francine's adult choice as an identity crisis caused by misunderstanding of her need for intimacy versus isolation.

Explanation:

Francine needs to continue developing her adulthood instead of atrophying it.  As a growing adult, she needs companionship in order to live a happy life.  Francine should develop intimate relationships and not feel isolated from others.  According to Erikson, it is not necessarily required that the relationships that Francine should establish at this stage be romantic, but she needs to be involved in "caring about another person(s) and sharing herself without losing herself."
