Eriksonian psychosocial stages refer to the eight developmental stages proposed by psychologist Erik Erikson, which encompass various challenges and conflicts individuals face throughout their lives. These stages involve achieving specific psychological tasks related to social interactions and personal identity.
This stage occurs during infancy when infants learn to trust or mistrust others based on their caregivers' reliability.
Identity vs. Role Confusion: In this stage during adolescence, teenagers explore different roles and identities as they try to understand themselves better.
