Question

Levi is like most other children in elementary​ school, learning new skills and coming to some understanding of his abilities in comparison to the abilities of peers. at this stage of psychosocial​ development, which developmental crisis is levi learning to​ resolve?
a. identity versus role confusion
b. generativity versus stagnation
c. industry versus inferiority
d. initiative versus guilt

Answer 1

Levi is at the psychosocial development stage of industry versus inferiority.  As described above, Levi is developing new skills while comparing his own skills to the abilities of his peers which is true to what should be developed during this stage of development. In this stage, a child is learning to do things on their own and if encouraged, this will push the child further to reach his full potential. The child will be confident in doing tasks and will believe in his own abilities. However, if restricted, the child may feel inferior causing him to doubt his own skills.
