  Erik Erikson's Psychosocial Theory of Human Development, eight crisis stages human life-cycle, for teaching and ...
Erikson's psychosocial theory of the 'eight stages of human development' drew from and extended the ideas of Sigmund Freud and Freud's daughter Anna Freud, and particularly the four (or five, depending on interpretation) Freudian stages of development, known as Freud's psychosexual stages or Freud's sexual theory.
Erikson was keen to improve the way children and young people are taught and nurtured, and it would be appropriate for his ideas to be more widely known and used in day-to-day life, beyond the clinical and counselling professions.
Erik's Canadian wife Joan M Erikson, whom he met and married in Vienna, was also keenly interested and expert in the life stages theory and its application to childhood development and psychoanalysis.

 Erik Erikson . Enpsychlopedia

Erikson is also credited with being one of the originators of Ego psychology, which stressed the role of the ego as being more than a servant of the id. According to Erikson, the environment in which a child lived was crucial to providing growth, adjustment, a source of self awareness and identity.
Each of Erikson's stages of psychosocial development are marked by a conflict, for which successful resolution will result in a favourable outcome, for example, trust vs. mistrust, and by an important event that this conflict resolves itself around, for example, weaning.

Erikson claimed that human development occurs over a span of eight developmental stages that are ruled by the epigenetic principle, which centers on the belief that human beings develop by undergoing certain developmental psychosocial tasks within these stages (Boerree).

Both Erikson and St. Augustine saw the effects of infant development on one's later moral state and recommended a return to an infant-like state for successful moral development, although they differed in their definitions of morality and of the proper source of trust for the infant.
