    Eriksons Theory of Psychosocial Development

    EPS511 Lopez National-Louis University

    Eriksons Theory
    Erickson suggested that people experience eight crises in the form of psychosocial stages as they progress from birth to old age. Well look at all 8 stages but ponder on the stages that will most influence you as an educator.

    The 8 stages of Psychosocial development


    Trust vs. mistrust (infancy) Autonomy vs. Shame and doubt (toddler) Initiative vs. guilt (preschool years) Industry vs. inferiority (elementary school)
    When children are praised for their accomplishments or not

    Identity vs. role confusion (adolescence)


    Who am I? How do I fit into the adult world?

    Intimacy vs. isolation (young adult)


    Occurs after Identity has been formed

    Generativity vs. Stagnation (Middle ages) Integrity vs. despair (retirement years)

    Stages are not completely accurate When do we achieve a sense of identity and role? Different throughout America and other cultures Gender differences to the developmental stages Underestimated just how differently cultural groups think about particular assets and ages levels
    This thinking takes us into Barbara Rogoffs research As well as Margaret Meads research on low income communities involving race and class.
