Six or more café-au-lait spots larger than 5 mm in diameter, freckling in the axillae, optic glioma, two or more Lisch nodules, and osseous lesion such as sphenoid dysplasia or thinning of long bone cortex with or without pseudoarthrosis are signs of neurofibromatosis. A client with two or more of these signs meets the criteria for neurofibromatosis 1 . Therefore client B, with eight café-au-lait spots measuring 0.2 inch, thinning of long bone cortex, and four Lisch nodules, meets the criteria. Client A, with four café-au-lait spots measuring 0.2 inch, optic glioma, and one Lisch nodule, may not meet the criteria for neurofibromatosis 1 because only one sign is present. Client C, with three café-au-lait spots measuring 0.2 inch, sphenoid dysplasia, and one Lisch nodule, also does not meet the criteria for neurofibromatosis 1 because only one sign is present. Client D, with five café-au-lait spots measuring 0.2 inch, freckling in the axillary region, and one Lisch nodule, also does not meet the criteria for neurofibromatosis.

During this stage, adolescents search for a sense of self and personal identity, through an intense exploration of personal values, beliefs, and goals. During adolescence, the transition from childhood to adulthood is most important. Children are becoming more independent, and begin to look at the future in terms of career, relationships, families, housing, etc. The individual wants to belong to a society and fit in. This is a major stage of development where the child has to learn the roles he will occupy as an adult. It is during this stage that the adolescent will re-examine his identity and try to find out exactly who he or she is. Erikson suggests that two identities are involved: the sexual and the occupational. 1. Trust vs. Mistrust (infancy) 2. Autonomy vs. Shame & Doubt (toddler-hood) 3. Initiative vs. Guilt (early childhood) 4. Industry vs. Inferiority (middle childhood) 5. Identity vs. Role Confusion (adolescence) 6. Intimacy vs. Isolation (early adulthood) 7. Generativity vs. Stagnation (middle adulthood) 8. Integrity vs. Despair (old age) Fifth stage of Erikson's theory - it occurs during adolescence, from about 12-18 years.
