Stage One Oral-Sensory: from birth to one, trust vs. mistrust, feeding;

Stage Two Muscular-Anal: 1-3 years, autonomy vs. doubt, toilet training;

Stage Three Locomotor: 3-6 years, initiative vs. inadequacy, independence;

Stage Four Latency: 6-12 years, industry vs. inferiority, school;

Stage Five Adolescence: 12-18 years, identity vs. confusion, peer relationships;

Stage Six Young Adulthood: 18-40 years, intimacy vs. isolation, love relationships;

Stage Seven Middle Adulthood: 40-65 years, generativity vs. stagnation, parenting;

Stage Eight Maturity: 65 years until death, integrity vs. despair, acceptance of one's life.
