"This research coordinates Erik Erikson?s theory of stages in the social emotional (affective) development of persons up to young adulthood with Jean Piaget?s theory of cognitive develop-ment, describing the development of the whole child as he or she simultaneously develops in both emotional and intellectual ways. To this end, this research presents first a delineation of both theories and then a coordinating framework within which both theories may be related.
Views of Erik Erikson
According to Lerner and Soohom (1980) as well as Muuss (1982), the theoretical views of Erikson may be delineated as follows. Influenced by Freud, Erikson adapted many of Freud?s notions (i.e. the oral, anal and phallic stages) into a (...)"

From the Paper
"The purpose of this paper is to compare and contrast the developmental theories of Erik Erikson and Jean Piaget. The paper discusses the similarities and dissimilarities of both theories.
According to Clark-Stewart, Friedman and Koch (1985), theories of human development consist of models of how people change (and stay the same) over time. Both Jean Piaget and Erik Erikson have formulated theories of human development (see: Piaget, 1951, 1952; Erikson, 1950, 1964, 1973). However, the nature of each man's developmental theory differs.
According to Pervin (1981), Erikson's psychosocial developmental model is a variant of the ..."

From the Paper
" Adolescence is considered a difficult time of life and one in which a number of changes occur as the individual achieves a certain integration of different aspects of personality. One approach to the cognitive and emotional transitions made at different times of life is to consider how the changes in, say, adolescence are linked to a continuum of change beginning in childhood and continuing throughout life. Some theorists, such as Piaget, were interested primarily in the transitions of childhood and youth, while others, such as Erikson, saw all of life as a series of transitions and offered a continuum of stages covering all of life.
Piaget became fascinated in his early studies with his discovery that children of the same age often gave the same incorrect answers to questions, suggesting that there were..."

Abstract
This paper discusses how Dr. James Dobson and Psychologist Erik Erikson both have interesting views concerning the states that a child goes through and the discipline needed to successfully endure each one. It looks at how Dr. Dobson's views mostly concern disciplining your child. In comparison, it examines how Erik Erikson, doesn't stress this in child development and how it is evident that the stages described by him coincide with the amount and type of discipline suggested by Dr. Dobson. The first five stages of his psychosocial stages of development are between birth and nineteen years, roughly the childhood and adolescent years that will need the most discipline by the parents.
Outline:
Stage One: Trust versus Mistrust
Stage Two: Autonomy versus Shame and Doubt
Stage Three: Initiative versus Guilt
Stage Four: Industry versus Inferiority
Stage Five: Identity versus Role Confusion
From the Paper
"Dr. James Dobson and Psychologist Erik Erikson both have interesting views concerning the sates that a child goes through and the discipline needed to successfully endure each one. Dr. Dobson's views mostly concern disciplining your child. Although another psychologist, Erik Erikson, doesn't stress this in child development, it is evident that the stages described by him coincide with the amount and type of discipline suggested by Dr. Dobson. The first five stages of his Psychosocial Stages of Development are between birth and nineteen years, roughly the childhood and adolescent years that will need the most discipline by the parents."

Abstract
This paper provides an overview of the background of Jean Piaget and his theory of four stages of child development. The paper discusses his influence on education and notes criticisms of Piaget's model. The paper points out that although Piaget's theory of cognitive development has appeared to lose its momentum as a new philosophy in recent years, his contributions to the education of children are far-reaching. The paper concludes that modern theorists in this area will build on the stages set out by Piaget, perhaps improving the reasoning behind his theory.
Outline:
Introduction
The Early Years
Piaget's Theory in Stages
Piaget's Influence on Education
Criticisms of Piaget's Model
Conclusion
From the Paper
"In the past few decades, theories of cognitive psychology have been applied to many different aspects of modern life. The study of cognitive psychology has been applied to many educational reform efforts that seek to implement new and better methods of teaching children. One such cognitive psychologist, Jean Piaget, is most noted for his studies and philosophy regarding the actions of children. Although he never taught children, Piaget has been hailed as an educator as a result of his many writings on the manner in which children think and learn."

Abstract
This paper explains that, before the time of Jean Piaget, theories of knowledge were considered to be a part of philosophical learning, but Piaget turned studies of cognition into a science in its own right. The author points out that Piaget did not consider himself foremost a child psychologist but rather believed that, by looking at the ways children learn to think, it is possible to better understand the ways in which knowledge in general is acquired. The paper relates in detail Piaget's classification system of the mental development of children.
From the Paper
"Another interesting comparison can be drawn between Piaget's work and that of Lev Vygotsky (1896-1934). Vygotsky asserted that a child's learning was "not a solitary exploration by a child of the environment ... but rather a process of appropriation by the child of culturally relevant behavior." This theory of social constructivism asserts that cognitive development "can be understood as the transformation of basic, biologically determined processes into higher physiological functions." In other words, children are born with a diverse range of perceptual, attentional and memory capacities which are substantially transformed in the context of socialization and education. "

The Stages of Cognitive Development
Piaget's Understanding Of the Mind of the Child
The Developmental Process
Influence
Developmental Psychology
Education
Historical Studies of Thought and Cognition
From the Paper
"While helping to mark the results of the responses to various intelligence tests, Piaget noticed that on certain question, young children consistently answered wrongly. He became intrigued with the fact that children at certain ages consistently adhered to the same pattern of mistakes, while they learned that their answers were wrong as they matured. In a moment of insight, Piaget reasoned that at certain stages of a child's life, a young child's cognitive processes, the way it thinks, is profoundly different from the thought process of an adult. Eventually, his research led him to set forth a theory of developmental stages in which he reasoned that in each of four stages of development, individuals exhibit certain distinctive common cognitive patterns."

This paper explains that Piaget was famous for his pioneering studies of the development of thought processes, particularly in children. It briefly provides a biography of Piaget and then analyzes his theories, focusing on play development in children.
From the Paper
"Piaget's work on concept formation in children falls into two main phases: an early phase (from 1924 to 1937) in which he established the basic differences between thought processes in children and those in adults, and a late phase (after 1937) in which he carried out detailed investigations of thought development and evolved his theories about concept formation in children - his best-known work."

From the Paper
"The purpose of this research is to examine the child development theories of Jean Piaget.
Jean Piaget has long been the most influential figure in the field of child development. His vast volume of contributions was most notable in three particular aspects. First, his ideas were innovative with an awareness of problems which has never before been investigated. Secondly, research in child development has revitalized and reoriented the field, challenging it anew. Third, the research of Piaget is most thoroughly and appropriately founded upon the study of children.
Piaget is perhaps best known for his theory of cognitive
development. He defined cognition as: a form of biological adaptation - the organism's constant ... "

Abstract
The paper tracks the important steps in the life of one of the greatest psychoanalysts ever, Erik Erikson. The paper examines his childhood, including the mysterious circumstances surrounding his father that lead to his early 'identity' crisis, through his education and his development of his ideas of psychosocial-analysis that would spur a revolution of the ideas of youth mental development. The paper includes a table.
From the Paper
"Erik Homburger Erikson, one of the last century's most prolific psychologists,was born on June 15, 1902, in Frankfurt, Germany to Danish parents. His experiences as a young child greatly influenced Erik; his biological father left his mother (they divorced) before his birth and his mother remarried a doctor Although Erik was Jewish, he looked "Nordic" in that he had blonde hair, blue eyes, and very fair skin. Because of this, he had difficulty fitting into either culture and was basically ostrasized by his peers. Erikson became interested in the arts and studied them as well as language in school, while other were studying the more 'accepted' subjects such as biology and chemistry. This resulted in what some of Eriksons biographers call his early "identity crisis." Erikson also eschewed the 'accepter' course of going to college after graduating in favour of traveling Europe for a year before finally returning to Germany to enroll in art school, which he graduated from four year later."

Abstract
"B. F. Skinner (1904-1990), an American psychologist, and Jean Piaget (1896-1980), a Swiss psychologist, were two of the most influential human development theorists of the twentieth century. The two men approached the question of development from very different angles.
From the Paper
"B. F. Skinner (1904-1990), an American psychologist, and Jean Piaget (1896-1980), a Swiss psychologist, were two of the most influential human development theorists of the twentieth century. The two men approached the question of development from very different angles. Skinner, a behaviorist, worked from a learning perspective and saw human development as a continuous process in which changes in behavior were responses to experience and adaptation to the environment. Piaget, on the other hand, took a cognitive approach and was concerned with the evolution of mental structures. Where Skinner saw development in quantitative terms (i.e., changes in the amount learned), Piaget held that development occurred in stages in which qualitative changes (i.e., changes in how the person thinks) enabled the individual to construct her/his world through progressively more complicated ..."

From the Paper
" This paper is an examination of two different theories of personality development, Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic perspective and Erik Erikson's psychosocial perspective, which draws on Freud's theories but expands and deepens them. This study investigates the psychology of female prostitutes who, following the views of each theory, tend to suffer depression and low self-esteem caused by their inability to fully develop through the necessary stages of personality outlined by each psychologist. Both theories argue the necessity for every individual to move through specific stages that allow him or her to resolve internal and external conflicts, many of which have to do with the child's relationship to his or her parents. Psychiatrists who have studied prostitutes have generally concluded that individuals often turn to the "oldest profession" "
