Study Notes
Erikson's Psychosocial Stages
-
Infancy (0-1): Trust vs. mistrust. Infants develop trust when caregivers provide reliable care and comfort, leading to a sense of security. Mistrust arises from inconsistent or unreliable care.
-
Toddlerhood (1-3): Autonomy vs. shame and doubt. Toddlers strive for independence and self-sufficiency. Positive experiences lead to autonomy, while negative ones can result in shame and self-doubt.
-
Preschool (3-6): Initiative vs. guilt. Preschoolers explore their environment and take initiative, which fosters a sense of purpose. If their actions are discouraged, they may experience guilt.
-
Childhood (6-12): Industry vs. inferiority. Children develop a sense of competence by mastering skills and acquiring knowledge. Lack of mastery leads to feelings of inferiority.
-
Adolescence (12-18): Identity vs. role confusion. Adolescents explore different roles and identities to develop a strong sense of self. Failure to do so can result in role confusion.
-
Early adulthood (18-29): Intimacy vs. isolation. Young adults seek close relationships and intimacy. Difficulty can lead to isolation.
-
Middle adulthood (30s-50s): Generativity vs. stagnation. Middle-aged adults focus on contributing to society and future generations, leading to a sense of purpose. Stagnation occurs when individuals feel unproductive.
-
Late adulthood (60s and beyond): Ego integrity vs. despair. Older adults reflect on their lives and feel a sense of fulfillment and wisdom (integrity), or despair if their reflection is negative.
