Question 1 • CUSD Psychology (5.0)
Identity versus role confusion occurs during adolescence, when the central task is developing a sense of self and identity, rather than focusing on a child’s relationship with a key caregiver. Autonomy versus shame and doubt, initiative versus guilt, and industry versus inferiority are childhood stages in which relationships with caregivers or other important people help shape development. Therefore, the answer is identity versus role confusion.
