THEORY

ERICK ERICKSONS PSYCHOSOCIAL DEVELOPMENT Generativity vs. Stagnation Middle Adulthood (40 to 65 years) In this stage generativity refers to the adult's ability to care for another person. The most important event in this stage is parenting. Does the adult have the ability to care and guide the next generation? Generativity has a broader meaning then just having children. Each adult must have some way to satisfy and support the next generation. According to Erikson, "A person does best at this time to put aside thoughts of death and balance its certainty with the only happiness that is lasting: to increase, by whatever is yours to give, the goodwill and higher order in your sector of the world" The client was able to satisfy this stage because he lives with his own family. He possessed good traits a husband and a father should have and leads his family to the ideal kind of relationship.

JEAN PIAGETS STAGES OF COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT

STAGES DEFINITION

Genital Stage (Puberty to Adult Life ) This stage begins at the start of puberty when sexual urges are once again awakened. Through the lessons learned during the previous stages, adolescents direct their sexual urges onto opposite sex peers, with the primary focus of pleasure of the genitals.[1] The less energy the child has left invested in unresolved psychosexual developments, the greater his capacity will be to develop normal relationships with the opposite sex.

Post-conventional moralists live by their own ethical principlesprinciples that typically include such basic human rights as life, liberty, and justice.

Formal operational (11 years and up) The formal operational stage is the fourth and final stage of cognitive development in Piaget's theory. This stage, which follows the Concrete Operational stage, commences at around 11 or 12 years of age (puberty) and continues into adulthood. In this stage, individuals move beyond concrete experiences and begin to think abstractly, reason logically, and draw conclusions from the information available as well as apply all these processes to hypothetical situations. This meant using symbols and imagined realities, as well as reasoning systematically. . The client thinks abstractly and solves his problems. He is realistic in a way.
