What are Erikson's stages of psychosocial development for children?

0:31

Erikson's stages for childhood are trust versus mistrust from birth to 18 months, where consistent caregiving builds trust; autonomy versus shame and doubt from 18 months to 3 years, where toddlers develop independence through choices; initiative versus guilt from 3 to 6 years, where preschoolers explore and learn through play; and industry versus inferiority from 6 to 12 years, where school-age children develop competence through achievement. Adolescents face identity versus role confusion from 12 to 18 years, developing a sense of self.
