DEVELOPMENTAL DATA Psychosocial theory of Erik Erickson Eriksons theory proposes that life is a sequence of developmental stages or levels
of achievement. Each stage signals a task that must be accomplished. The resolution of the task can be complete, partial, or unsuccessful. Erikson believed that the more success an individual has at each developmental stage, the healthier the personality of the individual.

Sigmund Freuds Psychoanalytic Theory
According to Freuds theory, human behavior is motivated by psychodynamic forces within an individuals unconscious mind. Driven to act by these internal forces, individuals repeatedly interact with the external environment. The individuals personality and psychosexual identity are developed through the accumulation of these interactional experiences. Personality according to Freud consists of the id, ego and superego. Also, Freud identified five psychosexual stages of development: oral, anal, phallic, latency and genital stage. If an individuals needs are met during a given stage and conflicts are resolved, development will proceed normally to the next stage, and the developing personality will be integrated in a healthy way. If resolution of the conflict does not occur, however, the individual will become fixated at that stage, and personality and psychosexual identity will be arrested or impaired.

This differs from the earlier stages in that it is not accompanied by a specific conflict. People reach the genital stage only if they have resolved the conflicts at the prior stages.

ability to confront and resolve his or her remaining psychosexual childhood conflicts.
