PSYCHOSEXUAL STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT?- Freud advanced a theory
of personality development that centered on the effects of the sexual
pleasure drive on the individual psyche. At particular points in the
developmental process, he claimed, a single body part is particularly
sensitive to sexual, erotic stimulation of the erogenous zones. The
child's libido centers on behavior affecting the primary erogenous
zone of his age; he cannot focus on the primary erogenous zone of the
next stage without resolving the developmental conflict of the
immediate one.
