CONTENT : REFLECTIVE ESSAY ON THEORETICAL FOUNDATIONS IN NURSING

Theories are the basic foundation of human life as its unfold the unknown and
tell us the fact about life. Theorists are called to the people who invented or formulated
the theories. Most of the theories invented by the theorist are maybe based on their
experiences, their observation, or how they give critics to the society and to its growing
population, or it could be scientific bases. Theories has its own field to describe its own
phenomena yet it will always depend to the theorist who made that theory. Through
rapid growth of human race, generation by generation, some famous theories were
inhereted and was also applied or used by many people. Theories that describe or
explain the developmemtal stages of a human being from the moment you were born
until you become older. Anyways, what are these theories that simply educates the
people's mimd around the world?

Psychosexual Development. The known theorist for this was Sigmund Freud, he clearly
stated from his theory that from infant it develops its oral stage until it goes older and
develops its genital stage. This theory became the basis of a person's development.

to explain the growth of a person throughout his childhood, adulthood, and until to his
old age. This theory is the most influential theory of all theories it is because it
considers the impact of external factors, parent and the society development.

generation by generation. It is still accepted up until today but due to the rapid
development of our country; these theories were also developed. It gets improved each
