Let me know what you think! - Erik Erikson's psychosocial theory of development focuses on the social and emotional aspects of human growth.  A child’s cognitive development underlies what Erikson describes and arguably, without the cognitive skills described by Piaget, the psychosocial stages that Erikson describes would not be possible.  Erikson's stages emphasize an individual's main psychological struggles or conflicts they are likely to experience as they age. These psychological conflicts are either resolved or not because of interactions with the social environment.  He proposes a more or less binary solution to identify formation at each phase of life.  For example, a child either establishes a basic trust in others that their needs will be met, or they develop mistrust.  Each of these outcomes will carry deep consequences for the future.Referenced resources can be found within the show transcripts at https://psydactic_caps.buzzsprout.com Feedback can be emailed to [email protected] OR submitted via a form at https://psydactic.com.This is not medical advice.
