Explanation: In the seventh of eight stages of Erik Erikson's theory of psychosocial development. This stage takes place during middle adulthood (ages 40 to 65 yrs).
In this stage, without getting positive feedback, the person feels inferior and loses the motivation to work. Frustrated they are unable to fulfill their obligation to their family or work. They feel not motivated to invest in personal growth and in productivity.
Erickson believed that human personality evolves through eight stages of psychological development, from infancy to adulthood and autonomy vs. shame and doubt was the second stage which started at the age of 18 months upto 2-3 years. At this level performance of the children will lead to the virtue of the will, they exert greater control over their lives. If children are encouraged in their increased independence at this point, they will become more confident and secure about their own ability to survive in the world.
