erik erikson
Erikson established that societal, cultural,
historical factors, biophysical processes and
cognitive function influence personality
development.
He expanded on Freud’s theory and declared
that the ego, id and superego can positively
affect a person’s development as more skills
and experience are gained.
Erikson believed that personality
development continues to evolve throughout
the life span.
jean piaget
- Piaget explains the growth and development of
intellectual structures. - Focusing on how a person learns, not what the
person learns. - He believed that individual cognitive development
occurs as the result of one’s organization and
adaptation to the perceived environment. - He suggested that a person may progress through four
major stages of intellectual development. - To explain his theory, he applied the concepts of
schema, assimilation, accommodation, and
equilibration .
