    1. Sigmund Freud proposed that personality develops through a series of psychosexual stages from birth to late adolescence, where a child's libido or psychic energy is focused on different erogenous zones. 2. The stages include the oral stage from birth to 1 year, the anal stage from 1 to 3 years, the phallic stage from 3 to 6 years, the latency stage from 6 to puberty, and the genital stage from puberty to late adolescence. 3. At each stage the child confronts a psychosexual conflict or crisis that influences their development, such as weaning or toilet training, the Oedipus complex or Electra complex, and the onset of puberty.

    Stages of Psychosexual Development

    According to Sigmund Freud1, personality develops through a series of stages in which the the
    energies of the id are focused on certain erogenous areas. This psychosexual energy, or libido, was
    described as the driving force behind behavior. The summary chart below offers a brief overview of
    these stages of psychosexual development2, the approximate age levels for each stage and the
    primary conflict confronted at each stage.

    Stage Age Characteristics

    Oral Birth An infant's primary interaction with the world is


    Stage3 to 1 through the mouth. The mouth is vital for eating,
    year and the infant derives pleasure from oral
    stimulation through gratifying activities such as
    tasting and sucking. If this need is not met, the
    child may develop an oral fixation later in life,
    examples of which include thumb-sucking,
    smoking, fingernail biting and overeating.

    Anal 1 to 3 Freud believed that the primary focus of the libido


    Stage4 years was on controlling bladder and bowel movements.
    Toilet training is a primary issue with children and
    parents. Too much pressure can result in an
    excessive need for order or cleanliness later in life,
    while too little pressure from parents can lead to
    messy or destructive behavior later in life.

    Phallic 3 to 6 Freud suggested that the primary focus of the id's


    Stage5 years energy is on the genitals. According to Freud,
    boy's experience an Oedipal Complex and girl's
    experience and Electra Complex, or an attraction
    to the opposite sex parent. To cope with this
    conflict, children adopt the values and
    characteristics of the same-sex parent, thus
    forming the superego.

    Latent 6 to During this stage, the superego continues to


    Stage6 11 develop while the id's energies are suppressed.
    years Children develop social skills, values and
    relationships with peers and adults outside of the
    family.

    Genital 11 to The onset of puberty causes the libido to become


    Stage7 18 active once again. During this stage, people
    years develop a strong interest in the opposite. If
    development has been successful to this point, the
    individual will continue to develop into a well-
    balanced person.
