Sample question

Erikson · medium

A Class VII student who earlier enjoyed science now avoids experiments and says, "Everyone will laugh if I get it wrong." According to Erikson, which conflict is most closely at play?
  1. A. Industry versus inferiority
  2. B. Generativity versus stagnation
  3. C. Autonomy versus shame
  4. D. Trust versus mistrust
Show answer and explanation
Answer: A
Erikson's stage for ages roughly 6 to 12 is industry versus inferiority; fear of ridicule over mistakes pushes a child toward feelings of inferiority. The other conflicts belong to infancy, toddlerhood and adulthood respectively. A teacher should reward effort and normalise error.
