Freud, Piaget, Kohlberg, Erikson Theories

Sigmund Freud's psychodynamic theory posits that childhood experiences, dreams, and slips of the tongue uncover repressed memories or conflicts, triggering flashbacks that suggest fixation at earlier developmental stages. Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development holds that children progress through sensorimotor, preoperational, and concrete operational stages as they develop logical thinking and use symbols to understand roles and identities. Lawrence Kohlberg's theory of moral development argues that individuals progress from an emphasis on social order and rule adherence in adolescence to challenging authority through universal principles as a young adult, helping to shape their emerging sense of self.
