Social Sciences - Psychology / recognition at work
French term or phrase: processuel
Cette logique de la « mêmeté », selon le terme de Paul Ricœur [1990], a prévalu chez les pères fondateurs du concept en sciences humaines, comme Erickson [1972], pour qui la formation de l’identité est définitivement fixée au terme de l’adolescence. Or, cette conception substantialiste et immuable de l’identité a été battue en brèche pour en souligner au contraire son caractère à la fois processuel, évolutif et socialement ancré.

I have not found this term in my usual sources - thanks to all :-)

stage-like / processual


Explanation:
Hi Rita, I think processual is fine, but I would not say this is the most common term used in the literature ("stage theory" by people like Erik Erikson).

The "stage theory" is articulated in terms of "identity crises" at different stages of life... and "stage-like" is much more commonly used.

So, I suggest the alternative of "stage-like" (refering to life being developmentally "divided" into stages -- Life itself being a process. Hence, "processual"). However, "processual" and "stage-like" are not exactly interchangeable. So, you may want to make a choice.
