Study Notes
Erikson's Psychosocial Stages
- Trust vs. Mistrust (Infancy 0-1): Infants develop trust in caregivers when their basic needs (food, comfort) are consistently met.
- Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt (Early Childhood 1-3): Toddlers assert independence by exploring their environment and developing self-control. Failure leads to doubt in their abilities.
- Initiative vs. Guilt (Preschool 3-6): Preschoolers develop initiative by taking on tasks and making decisions. Failure leads to guilt and a sense of being inadequate.
- Industry vs. Inferiority (School Age 6-12): Children gain a sense of competence by mastering skills and achieving goals in school and social settings. Failure leads to feelings of inferiority.
- Identity vs. Role Confusion (Adolescence 12-18): Adolescents experiment with different roles, beliefs, and goals to develop a clear sense of personal identity. Failure results in role confusion and uncertainty about who they are.
- Intimacy vs. Isolation (Young Adulthood 18-40): Young adults form deep, intimate relationships with partners and friends. Failure leads to feelings of isolation and loneliness.
- Generativity vs. Stagnation (Middle Adulthood 40-65): Adults contribute to society through work, parenting, or community involvement. Failure results in stagnation and a sense of unproductivity.
- Integrity vs. Despair (Late Adulthood 65+): Older adults reflect on life and find meaning and satisfaction in their accomplishments. Failure leads to despair over missed opportunities and regrets.
Cognitive Domains
- Cognitive Domain: Focuses on knowledge acquisition and understanding, such as medication regimens or disease processes.
- Affective Domain: Involves attitudes, emotions, and feelings related to health conditions and treatment.
- Psychomotor Domain: Deals with physical skills, such as using a glucometer or self-administering injections.
Factors Affecting Ability to Learn
- Physical Factors: Pain, fatigue, illness, and mobility issues can affect learning by limiting concentration and ability to practice skills.
- Psychological Factors: Anxiety, fear, and depression can negatively impact memory and concentration.
- Sociocultural Factors: Cultural beliefs, language barriers, and health literacy levels can influence how patients understand and respond to health information.
Kohlberg's Theory of Moral Development
- Early Childhood: 1 to 6 years: Children learn rules and consequences through punishment and rewards.
- Middle Childhood: 6 to 12 years: Children develop a sense of justice and fairness, understanding rules as part of social order.
- Adolescence: 12 to 19 years: Adolescents develop abstract moral principles and consider ethical dilemmas from multiple perspectives.
Principles of Growth and Development
- Orderly and Sequential: Development follows a predictable pattern, such as cephalocaudal (head to toe) and proximodistal (center to extremities) growth.
- Influences: Maturation, environment, and genetics all play a role in growth and development.
- Uneven Pace: Growth may be rapid during infancy and slower during middle childhood.
Factors Influencing Growth and Development
- Genetic/Natural Factors: Includes heredity and temperament.
- Environmental Factors: Family, peers, nutrition, health environment, and political surroundings.
- Experiential Factors: Life experiences, prenatal health, and overall health throughout life.
Cognitive Development Theory - Piaget
-
Sensorimotor Stage (0-2 years): Infants learn through senses and actions.
- Key Milestone: Object permanence - understanding that objects continue to exist even when out of sight.
- Preoperational Stage (2-7 years): Children use symbols and images to represent objects, but their thinking is egocentric (difficulty seeing other perspectives) and lacks logical reasoning.
- Concrete Operational Stage (7-11 years): Children develop logical reasoning about concrete events and objects.
- Formal Operational Stage (11+): Adolescents and adults develop abstract thinking, hypothetical reasoning, and problem-solving skills.
Freud’s Psychosexual Development
- Oral Stage (0-18 months): Erogenous zone is the mouth; focus is on oral gratification through sucking, biting, and chewing.
- Anal Stage (18 months-3 years): Erogenous zone is the anus; focus is on bowel control and the conflict between pleasure and control.
- Phallic Stage (3-6 years): Erogenous zone is the genitals; focus is on sexual curiosity and identification with the same-sex parent.
- Latency Stage (6-puberty): Sexual impulses are repressed, and the focus shifts to developing social and communication skills.
- Genital Stage (Puberty onward): Erogenous zone is the genitals; focus is on establishing mature and intimate relationships.

- Attachment Theory (Bowlby, 1982): Secure attachments in early childhood are crucial for healthy emotional development.
Nursing Process and Self-Concept
- Assessment: Observing behaviors and asking questions to identify potential issues with self-concept.
- Nursing Diagnosis: Disturbed body image, Ineffective role performance, Chronic low self-esteem.
- Interventions: Helping clients identify strengths, promoting positive thinking, and setting attainable goals.
- Evaluation: Observing nonverbal behaviors and checking if interventions are meeting patient goals.
Developmental Milestones:
Birth to 4 Months:
- Reflexes: Involuntary reflexes such as the crawling reflex and startle reflex.
- Motor Skills: Early signs of rolling over, improving eye-hand coordination.
- Urinary Patterns: 6-12 times per day.
- Sleeping: Sleep patterns vary, with 4-hour sleep cycles. By 4 months, infants may sleep 9-11 hours with a total of 15 hours daily.
-
Health Concerns:
- SIDS: Encourage safe sleep practices (back sleeping, firm mattress).
- Accidental Injury: Aspiration, suffocation, drowning, falls, and poisoning.
- Nutrition: Breastfeeding is recommended for infants under 6 months. Iron-fortified formula may be used for those who cannot or choose not to breastfeed. Solids can be introduced around 6 months, starting with iron-fortified cereals.
- Immunizations: Essential for protecting against diseases.
Toddler Development (1 to 3 years):
-
Physical Development:
- Growth: Weight gain slows to 4-6 lbs per year; height increases 3 inches per year.
- Motor Skills: Major gross motor milestones include walking, climbing, running, and using a tricycle. Fine motor skills develop (stacking, scribbling, using utensils).
-
Cognitive Development:
- Piaget's Stages: Sensorimotor stage (until 24 months), followed by the preoperational stage with symbolic thinking.
- Object permanence and causal relationships develop.
- Language: By 24 months, toddlers know about 200 words and form simple sentences.
