    Trust vs. Mistrust

    The first stage of Erikson's psychosocial development, occurring during infancy (0-1 year), where the infant learns to trust others based on whether their basic needs are consistently met. If needs are not met consistently, the infant may develop mistrust.

    Autonomy vs. Shame/Doubt

    The second stage of Erikson's theory, happening during early childhood (2-3 years), where the child begins to develop a sense of independence and self-control. If they are encouraged to explore and make choices, autonomy flourishes. Excessive control or criticism can lead to shame and doubt.

    Initiative vs. Guilt

    The third stage of Erikson's theory, during play age (3-6 years), where children explore their surroundings and take initiative. If they are praised for their efforts and allowed to experiment, they develop a sense of purpose. Overly controlling parents or punishments can lead to guilt.

    Industry vs. Inferiority

    The fourth stage of Erikson's theory, occurring during school age (7-11 years), where children develop a sense of competence and self-confidence based on their accomplishments. Persistent failures or lack of support may lead to feelings of inferiority.
