According to Erik H. Erikson, the process of social development consists of:
- <em>Infancy:</em> Where the individual learns to trust and mistrust.
- <em>Toddlerhood:</em> Where the individual discerns challenge vs autonomy.
- <em>Preschool:</em> Where the individual understands the difference between initiative and guilt.
- <em>Pre-Adolescence:</em> Where the individual learns about industriousness and inferiority.
- <em>Adolescence:</em> Where the individual struggles between identity and confusion.
- <em>Young Adulthood:</em> Where the individual deals between intimacy or isolation
- <em>Middle-Adulthood:</em> Where the individual confronts the challenge of trying to make the difference.
- <em>Old Age:</em> Where the individual struggles between integrity and despair.
