The document summarizes several theories of development, including psychoanalytic, cognitive, and ecological theories. Freud and Erikson's psychoanalytic theories propose that personality develops through stages focused on different needs or life crises. Piaget's cognitive theory describes stages of cognitive development from childhood to adolescence. Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory views human development as influenced by environmental systems, including the microsystem of family and friends and the broader exosystem and macrosystem of community and culture.
