The author proposes to speak of representations concerning the ideal self, the ideal relationship, the ideal society instead of ego ideal. An active self develops ideals and uses them as standards for orientation, to regulate the affects, and to fulfill needs. The different ideals often do not fit together and are therefore difficult to realize. Adolescents normally refuse their parents' ideals and create new ones with the help of their peers. This developmental step is full of challenges and risks as will be explained in this article.
作者提议用关于理想自我、理想关系、理想社会的表征来取代自我理想。一个积极的自我会形成理想，并将其用作定向标准、调节情感以及满足需求。不同的理想往往并不契合，因此难以实现。青少年通常会拒绝父母的理想，并在同龄人帮助下创造新的理想。正如本文将要解释的，这一发展阶段充满挑战与风险。
