The correct answer is; Tarantism.

Further Explanation:

In both the 15th, 16th, and 17th century people who had mental and psychological illness would do bizarre things in the public. They would start dancing when there was no music, this was called "Tarantism."

In those days, they did not have modern doctors and psychologists that we have now. The people in the towns, where people suffered from this ailment, thought they had been bitten by a tarantula, black widow, or wolf spider.

This was also called "dancing mania" since the people who suffered from this would dance manically in the town square.  This was common in Italy.

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

D. shame and doubt  

Explanation:

Shame and doubt: In psychology, the term "shame and doubt" is described as a part of the second stage i.e, "autonomy versus shame & doubt" and falls in the psychosocial development theory which was proposed by Erik Erikson. This stage generally starts between eighteen months of a child's life and lasts through two to three years of age and is focused on establishing a sense of "self-control". A child tries to be independent and if he or she isn't able to do so then he or she will experience "shame and doubt".

In the question above, Erikson would say that McKenzie is likely to develop a sense of shame and doubt.
