  1. All life events are formative. All contribute to what we become, year by year, as we go on growing. As my friend, the poet Kenneth Koch once said, ‘You aren’t just the age you are. You are all the ages you have ever been.’ – Fred Rogers Development Psychology Part 3: Psychosocial Dev., and Morality

  2. Erikson’s Theory of Psychosocial Development

  3. Erikson’s Theory of Psychosocial Development Failure to resolve a developmental challenge results in conflict throughout adulthood.

  4. Trust vs. Mistrust STAGE 1: (Birth - 18 months) The major event is FEEDINGThe infant will develop a sense of trust only if the parent or caregiver is responsive and consistent with the basic needs being met. The need for care and food must be met with comforting regularity. The infant must first form a trusting relationship with the parent or caregiver; otherwise a sense of mistrust will develop.

  5. Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt STAGE 2: (18 months – 3 years) The major event is toilet training(and feeding and dressing themselves)Toilet training as well as feeding and dressing themselves is how the toddler strives for autonomy. It is essential for parents not to be overprotective at this stage. A parent's level of protectiveness will influence the child's ability to achieve autonomy. If a parent is not reinforcing, the child will feel shameful and will learn to doubt his or her abilities.

  6. Initiative vs. Guilt STAGE 3: (3 – 6 years) The major event at this stage is independence. The child continues to be assertive and to take the initiative. Children in this stage are eager for responsibility. It is essential for adults to confirm that the child's initiative is accepted no matter how small it may be. If the child is not given a chance to be responsible and do things on their own, a sense of guilt may develop. The child will come to believe that what they want to do is always wrong.

  7. Competence (Industry) vs. Inferiority STAGE 4: (6- 12 years) The major event at this stage is attendance at school As a student, the children have a need to be productive and do work on their own. They are both physically and mentally ready for it. Interaction with peers at school also plays an imperative role of child development in this stage. The child for the first time has a wide variety of events to deal with, including academics, group activities, and friends. Difficulty with any of these leads to a sense of inferiority.

  8. Identity vs. Role Confusion STAGE 5: (12 – 18 years) The major event at this stage is ESTABLISHING PEER RELATIONSHIPSAt this stage, adolescents are in search of an identity that will lead them to adulthood. Adolescents make a strong effort to answer the question "Who am I?" Erikson notes the healthy resolution of earlier conflicts can now serve as a foundation for the search for an identity. If the child overcomes earlier conflicts they are prepared to search for identity.

  9. Intimacy vs. Isolation STAGE 6: (19 – 40 years) In this stage, the most important events are love relationships.Intimacy refers to one's ability to relate to another human being on a deep, personal level. An individual who has not developed a sense of identity usually will fear a committed relationship and may retreat into isolation.

  10. Generativity vs. Stagnation STAGE 7: (40 – 65 years) In this stage, the most important EVENT IS PARENTING.In this stage generativity refers to the adult's ability to care for another person. Generativity has a broader meaning then just having children. Each adult must have some way to satisfy and support the next generation.

  11. Ego Integrity vs. Despair STAGE 8: (65 years - death) In this stage, the most important EVENT IS ACCEPTANCE OF ONE’S LIFE.According to Erikson, achieving a sense of integrity means fully accepting oneself and coming to terms with the death. Accepting responsibility for your life and being able to undo the past and achieve satisfaction with self is essential. The inability to do this results in a feeling of despair.

  14. Heinz was near death from a special kind of cancer. There was one drug that could save her that was discovered by a druggist in town. The druggist was the only person who had the drug. It cost him $200 to make the drug, but he charged the customers $2,000. Heinz only had $1,000, and he tried to borrow the other $1,000. Nobody would loan him the money. Heinz told the druggist his dilemma and asked if he could pay him the other $1,000 later. The druggist refused his offer. That night, Heinz broke into the store and stole the drug for his wife. Did Heinz do the right thing? Why
