, QUESTION 1

1.1 In comparing the African perspective on human development to Erikson's
psychosocial theory, several differences can be identified:

 Cultural Context: The African perspective takes into account the cultural and

ceremonies that are deeply rooted in spiritual beliefs. These rituals serve as
important socialization processes, transmitting cultural values, norms, and
