    Robert Havighurst proposed that individuals progress through developmental stages across the lifespan, with each stage involving developmental tasks that must be achieved. He identified six major stages: infancy/early childhood, middle childhood, adolescence, early adulthood, middle age, and later maturity. Each stage involves tasks such as learning skills, achieving independence, selecting a mate, raising children, adjusting to physiological changes, and establishing social roles.
