This document discusses Erik Erikson's stages of psychosocial development and how they relate to common health issues seen in students visiting the school health office. It covers the stages from birth through late adulthood, outlining key characteristics and health concerns for each developmental period. For example, it notes that ages 3-6 focus on initiative vs guilt, with 7-8 colds per year common due to an immature respiratory system. It provides guidance for talking to children who disclose abuse and statistics on adolescent mental health issues and leading causes of death by age in the US.

The human development timeline marks distinct milestones that individuals are expected to pass as they move through the different stages of their lives. The rate of growth and development varies for every individual based on genetic or environmental factors that may either enhance or undermine development. Monitoring the development stages is especially critical among children since any anomalies can be quickly identified and the necessary intervention strategies employed. The primary domains of development are physical, social, language and emotional. The paper will analyze the development stages for the 3-12 years’ age group through assessing the different popular theories that explain the important features of the age group.
Between the ages of 3 and 12 years, a lot of learning takes place with a child's ability to assimilate information from the environment drastically improving. Up to the age of 7 years, the physical growth ensures that children can roam around and interact with their physical environment. Increased dexterity means they can hold things and play with toys. Speech also develops with a significant growth in vocabulary which makes them able to converse with both adults and other children. Reading skills also significantly improve with most children of the age of 5 being able to recognize simple words in print (Piaget, 2000). Their capacity for reasoning is also highly elevated making it the most appropriate stage for parents to instill values and morals through positive reinforcement or punishment. Per Erikson's Eight Stages of Development, the child struggles between embracing their autonomy and shame to gain a sense of Will. Children often exhibit stubborn tendencies and wild tantrums as a mode of coping with others saying ‘NO' to their requests. Erikson's third psychological crisis is marked by the child developing a sense of purpose although imagination is restricted (Elkind, 1970).
Freud's theory of sexual development suggests that children gain pleasure from oral stimulation during breastfeeding and anal stimulation during toilet training (Oswald, 2008). The phallic stage is marked with sexual identification where children tend to emulate the same-sex parent and develop a strong interest and love for the opposite-sex parent (Freud, 1924). This stage is especially common in the pre-teen years as children struggle to develop a sense of self.
The four cognitive development stages developed by Piaget explain the milestones in the thought process of an individual. The preoperational stage may encompass children between the ages of 2-7 years where the child grasps some aspects of symbolism. The third stage is the concrete operational stage that is considered the most significant marked by children developing a se ...
