2 page essay

If you recall from our discussion regarding cognitive development, we examined the essence of critical thinking, which we defined as “thinking reflectively and productively, and evaluating evidence.” Thus, for this assignment, you are to critically think about Erikson’s Psychosocial theory (see slide 4 of the lecture notes) and utilize it to address the dynamics associated with the behavior and attitudes that stem from strong loyalty to one’s social group (e.g., race, social economic status, profession, etc.).  However, rather than simply referring to the annotated notes for Erikson’s Psychosocial theory, you will need to further investigate those 8 stages so that you may have richer understanding of its purpose. 

                                                               

It will also be beneficial for you to critically think about the content posted in slides 24 and 32 as that will help guide the narrative of your paper. 

 

Please refer to Section 6 (PREPARING ASSIGNMENTS FOR SUBMISSION) of the syllabus prior to starting your assignment.  Finally, you will not need references for this assignment, but you must be thorough.  To that end, your document should be 3 pages (the cover page is page 1).  Please upload as a Word doc
