Erik Erikson Theory of Psychosocial Development: Developmental stage is stage 7. Generativity vs Stagnation. This stage take place during the middle adulthood (ages 40 to 65 yrs.). Since the patient is 53 years old this theory’s stage of development applies to her. This patient also has a supportive family and her own business, and, in this way, she is giving back to society. Through her successful business and supportive family, she develops a sense of the bigger picture through generativity. After her diagnosis she has started to feel unproductive and not as involved in her daily life as in the past. This might contribute to stagnation which individuals in this stage might experience. It is important for individuals like her to focus on the good and to make positive changes that will benefit themselves and others.

•

Abraham Maslow’s Hierarchy of needs: Tis hierarchy of needs is a motivational theory that comprise of a five-tier model of human needs, often depicted as hierarchical levels within a pyramid. From the bottom of the hierarchy upwards the needs are physiological (food and clothing), safety (job security), love and belonging needs (friendship, esteem (prestige and feeling of accomplishment), and self-actualization (Achieving one’s full potential, including creative activities). The needs lower down in the hierarchy must be satisfied before individuals can attend to needs higher up. This patient has move through all of the hierarchy needs since she has

good physiological needs (house, food, clothing, drink – and everything she needs for survival). She also has her safety needs fulfilled (patient has a good job, and she also has medical care, emotional security, freedom, social stability, property, health, and wellbeing). The patient also has love and belongingness needs, since she has a good family support and structure, feeling of belongingness, friendships, intimacy, a business, love, and affection. The patient has esteem needs in which she has esteem for herself (dignity, achievement of running her own business, independence in which she can take care and provide for herself and family) and also the desire for reputation or respect from others (her status and her prestige and the respect from her employees). The patient also has self-actualization needs in which she knows her potential, her self-fulfillment and seeking personal growth (discover better ways to deal with the care of her daughter and improving her business) as well as peak experiences. In this stage the patient is doing everything she can to become the most successful that she can be in everything that she does. If all of these needs are satisfied, the individual can function optimally. This patient seems to have met all of these needs, and therefore she will be able to function optimally. •

Kohlberg’s Theory of Moral Development: Level 3: Postconventional (maintaining internal principles of self), Stage 5 and 6. Stage 5: Orientation to social contract legalism: since the patient is an older adult she associates with this stage. The patient is also a lawyer, which associates a lot with this theory, seeing that it is a lot about accepting and following the rules and laws and respecting the rights of other individuals. The patient has to honor some of her clients and has the obligation to her clients to do defend them and do the right thing, even when others do not agree with her....
