Erikson's stages of psychosocial development describe 8 stages that span the entire lifespan. Stage 1 is Trust vs. Mistrust which occurs in infancy as babies learn to trust their caregivers. Stage 2 is Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt as toddlers explore their independence. Stage 3 is Initiative vs. Guilt as preschoolers learn new skills but may feel guilt over mistakes. Stage 4 is Industry vs. Inferiority where school-aged children develop competencies or complex about failure.

Parents are the most dominant figure in the baby’s life because they show the baby good and bad emotions. If the parents nurture and love the child, then the child develops hope along with trust but if the child is under nurtured and abandoned then the kid develops mistrust. Also, in the baby’s brain is the hormone oxytocin which includes the mirror effect to parents and child. 2. Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt In this age, 1.0-2.5, child learns how to walk and becomes more curious about their surroundings which means that child is allowed to explore. That experience can be good or bad because kid can make some mistakes which makes him feel shame and doubt. 3. Initiative vs. Guilt In this stage kid can develop initiative and he has positive responses to changes, he takes responsibility, try out ideas and begins to find a purpose in life. Kid can make mistakes, while being scolded the kid will feel a certain amount of guilt. 4. Inferiority vs. Industry (competence) In this stage the child begins to learn about success and social skills. They start to learn that with success comes with rewards, although if a child is too successful in one subject they can become too narrow, and if a child has a little success, he starts to try less and starts to think that he will never be successful. 5. Identity vs. Role Confusion The teenager begins to form and identity, a self-image. The image of the self against others involves the superior temporal gyrus and inferior parietal lobe. Person with to much ego has no regards for others and a person with too little ego can become with destructive believing that they are nobody. 6. Intimacy vs. Isolation When starts the sixth stage then comes the time for relationship and adults chooses to either be intimate or isolated. This stage involves decision making, which includes immediate reward vs. long-term consequence, which means if you result in immediate reward it involves either the limbic and paralimbic cortices or the dorsal prefrontal cortex and if you result in a long term consequence it involves the dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex. 7. Generativity In this stage people want to have kids and prevent their children from having to deal with the problems they faced in life. Parents wish the best to their kids but, also, they need to not forget theirselves because have to enjoy their life. 8. Integrity vs. Despair In this stage people come to terms with all life experiences and understand that in life it is important to trust only yourself because only you will reach out to yourself when you need it most. The eight stages wisdom may not be the only path but it involves the interactions of the limbic system and the prefrontal cortex.
