Assignment 2: LASA 1: Development Throughout the Lifespan<\/p>\n

Erikson and Freud are two of the few theorists who have developed a lifespan approach to development. Freud\u2019s approach to development was psychosexual while Erikson\u2019s was psychosocial. Even though Freud\u2019s theory is better known, Erikson\u2019s theory remains a leading and very much applied model in personality and developmental psychology today.<\/p>\n

When considering these two stage-oriented theories, you can directly compare the majority of their stages. These are matched in the following table:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

When considering Erikson’s eight stages of development, the way a person moves through each stage directly affects their success in the next stage. Their personality is being built and shaped with each stage. At each stage, there is a turning point, called a crisis by Erikson, which a person must confront.<\/p>\n

In this assignment, you will observe or interview\u00a0two\u00a0<\/strong>different people, each at a different stage of development. For a\u00a0third\u00a0<\/strong>observation, take a look at yourself and the stage that you are in (this stage must be different from your other two observations).<\/p>\n
