The "MAMA" cycle is a pattern for positive identity, which stands for moratorium - achievement - moratorium - achievement.

James Marcia's Identity moratorium is "the state adolescents are in when they are in the midst of a crisis (exploration) but their commitments are either absent or only vaguely defined" (Santrock, 415) while Identity achievement is "the state adolescents are in when they have undergone a crisis (exploration) and made a commitment" (Santrock, 415).

Basically, individuals can undergo this cycle throughout their lives where they achieve a certain committed goal (i.e. successfully graduating from HS and going to college) before finding themselves searching/exploring ("crisis") for another path to take (i.e. going to college but don't know what major to select).
