LeadershipMaturity.ai released custom-built automatic scoring models.
2017 - 2019
Dr. Susanne Cook-Greuter revised ogive rules again, replaced them by new cut-off rules (COR) based on the data from several thousand more MAPs. The COR numbers were made more stringent for post-conventional MAPs than Hy & Loevinger's rules (1996) and better match the actual numbers of late-stage responses in the dataset. Dr. Cook-Greuter also released an updated scoring manual.
Dr. Susanne Cook-Greuter adjusted MAP's scoring method & released new scoring manual.
1985 - 1999
In 1985, Dr. Cook-Greuter presented new stages and 5 levels of perspective-taking at a conference of the Society for Research in Adult development. In 1999, she created the SCTi , later renamed the MAP. She added linguistic complexity and scoring criteria to the scoring method, greatly expanded the manuals, and the theory to include the two post-autonomous ego stages and the increasing perspectives. She also slightly adjusted the cut-off numbers at the high-end.
Dr. Susanne Cook-Greuter's expanded Dr. Loevinger''s framework and created the SCTi.
1982 - 1994
Dr. Kegan, a neo-Piagetian constructive-developmental psychologist at Harvard, expanded Jean Piaget’s cognitive development stages of childhood to adulthood. Using a different instrument (Subject-Object interview), and different scoring method, Dr. Kegan derived a framework consisting of five different levels of development, which can be mapped 1:1 to Loevinger's / Cook-Greuter's stages.

Dr. Robert Kegan introduced his theory of adult development, especially the concept of Subject-Object theory of development.
1970
In 1970, Loevinger's group published the Washington University Sentence Completion Test (SCT), which was designed to assess female moral development, interpersonal relationships, and conceptual complexity. The SCT uses projective technique for assessing personality, raters rating responses using a comprehensive manual, and ogive rules. Loevinger's model includes eight stages of development (Loevinger 1998; Vincent et al. 2015).
Jane Loevinger & colleagues developed the The SCT.
Late 19th Century
Pioneers like G. Stanley Hall (1844-1924) and Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) laid the groundwork for the emergence of developmental psychology as a distinct field. These early advancements in understanding human growth set the stage for later theories. Loevinger’s Ego Development Theory, developed in the mid-20th century, draws on several foundational psychological concepts, particularly Piaget’s stages of cognitive development, Erikson’s psychosocial stages, and Kohlberg’s moral development. These frameworks collectively explore human personality, growth, and meaning-making processes.
Advancements in human development field provided a fertile ground for Jan Loevinger's development of Ego Development Theory.
