This document outlines Erik Erikson's stages of psychosocial development and the central psychological issue or crisis at each stage from infancy through late adulthood. In infancy, the crisis is trust vs. mistrust as infants learn whether their needs will be met. In early childhood, the crisis is autonomy vs. shame and doubt as children learn independence. From ages 6 to puberty, the crisis is industry vs. inferiority as children develop a sense of competence or inferiority.
