The theory of psychosocial development stages of identity by Erikson is applied to answer the objectives. This research is a descriptive-qualitative research with the content analysis method. The main source of this research is a novel entitled The Wasp Factory by Iain Bank. The data are some phrases, clauses, sentences, discourses, and expressions related to the psychosocial development of the main character and also the impacts or the outcome of the development. The researcher is the primary instrument of this research, while the secondary instrument is the data sheets. This research is conducted through several steps: reading and re-reading the materials, noting, identifying the data, classifying and categorizing the data, analyzing and interpreting, making the interrelation between the description of the data and the theory. The finding of this research shows that the main character is unable to overcome the problems in the fifth stage of Erikson’s psychosocial development theory or the stage of Identity vs. Identity Diffusion. In this stage, the researcher finds out that the main character deals with three major problems, identity foreclosure, identity diffusion and negative identity. Because the problems of the main character are not resolved, the problems continue in her young adult period or the stage of Intimacy vs. Isolation. The impacts then can be seen from her intimacy crisis and the tendency of isolating herself from the society. date: 2016-01-26 date_type: published institution: Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta department: Bahasa dan Sastra Inggris thesis_type: skripsi citation: Maehendra Geni, Raditya (2016) FRANK’S FAILURE IN OVERCOMING IDENTITY CRISIS AND ITS IMPACT TOWARD HER PERSONALITY: A PSYCHOSOCIAL ANALYSIS TOWARD BANKS’THE WASP FACTORY.
