PSYC 100 - Ch 9 "Lifespan Development"

Long form lecture covering major topics in the Lifespan Development chapter of an Introduction to Psychology course. I cover major psychological developmental theories, including Freud’s psychosexual stages of development, Erik Erikson’s psychosocial stages of development, and Piaget’s Cognitive development theory (and Kohlberg’s moral development). Also discussed various life stages and events within those stages, from infancy (attachment theory) to adolescence, to adulthood. This kind of lecture, or chapter, does little justice to the field, in that it’s an immense field of research within psychology, that one can take numerous classes and earn advanced degrees in developmental psychology. My hope is that students get a general sense of the field and concepts within it.
