Erikson's Theory of Life Cycle Development, Individual DevelopmentAbstract
Erikson's theory of life cycle development is a stage-based view of human life. According to this theory, people go through eight stages in their lives, each involving specific developmental tasks and crises. For each stage, the crisis experienced by individuals is not catastrophic but rather a turning point where their vulnerability increases or potential is enhanced. If individuals can successfully resolve each crisis, then they will have a healthier psychological state. Each stage has a positive and negative side. Erikson's theory of life cycle development provides a framework that can help us understand the challenges people face at different stages and how to deal with them. Understanding these stages can help teachers better understand children and how to better support their development.
