Briana, age 4, is in Erikson's third stage of development. What is the third stage called?

A) Autonomy versus shame and doubt
B) Initiative versus guilt
C) Industry versus inferiority
D) Trust versus mistrust

The third stage of Erikson's psychosocial development theory is called Initiative versus Guilt, which occurs between ages 3 to 6 years. During this stage, children are developing their sense of purpose and taking initiative in activities and tasks. They may experience guilt if their actions create negative consequences or result in disapproval from others. Briana, who is 4 years old, is likely in this stage of development.
