Give at least two ways in which Freud’s stages differ from those of Erikson. How are their theories similar?

What will be an ideal response?


Ans: Erikson believed that issues of the ego are more important than those linked with the id and that the development of identity is the central issue for children and adolescents. At each stage in his theory, a conflict arises rooted in the social experiences typical at that stage of development. For this reason, Erikson’s (1963) theory is said to describe psychosocial stages (as opposed to Freud’s psychosexual stages).
