Original Wikipedia entry for Jane Loevinger Weissman:

Jane Loevinger Weissman (February 6, 1918 – January 4, 2008) was a developmental psychologist who developed a theory of personality which emphasized the gradual internalization of social rules and the maturing conscience for the origin of personal decisions. She also contributed to the theory of measurements by introducing the coefficient of test homogeneity. In the tradition of developmental stage models, Loevinger integrated several "frameworks of meaning-making" into a model of humans' constructive potentials that she called ego development (de:Ich-Entwicklung). The essence of the ego is the striving to master, to integrate, and make sense of experience.

In 1943, she married Samuel Isaac Weissman (June 25, 1912 – June 12, 2007), a scientist who contributed to the Manhattan Project. They had a son and a daughter.Family life: Jane Loevinger Weissman was born in St. Paul, Minnesota on February 6th of 1918 to parents Gustavus Loevinger and Millie Strause. Jane was the third of their five children. Her father was an immigrant from Germany who worked as a lawyer until becoming a court judge in 1932, while her mother worked as a part-time school teacher.
