Sample question

Erikson: psychosocial stages · medium

A child who is regularly praised for tidying his own shelf and helping set the table develops a belief that 'I can do things'. In Erikson's scheme, this supports resolution of:
  1. A. Identity versus role confusion
  2. B. Industry versus inferiority
  3. C. Trust versus mistrust
  4. D. Generativity versus stagnation
Show answer and explanation
Answer: B
Primary school years (about 6–12) correspond to industry versus inferiority, where praised, meaningful effort builds a sense of competence. Trust versus mistrust belongs to infancy, identity to adolescence, and generativity to adulthood.
