Correct option is B
The concept of
"industry and inferiority" comes from Erik Erikson’s
psychosocial development theory, specifically from the
stage of industry vs. inferiority, which occurs between the ages of 6 and 12 years (middle childhood). In this stage, children start comparing their abilities to those of their peers and begin to develop a sense of competence (industry) or feelings of inadequacy (inferiority) based on how they measure up.
Information Booster: During this stage, children become more involved in school and social activities, and their ability to succeed in these areas contributes to their self-esteem. Success leads to a sense of
industry, or competence, while failure to meet expectations may lead to feelings of
inferiority, where the child may feel less capable than their peers.
Additional Knowledge:
·
Children begin to expose them to the competitive world: This idea is related to the
industry part, but it doesn’t fully capture the essence of Erikson's stage, which involves comparing oneself to peers.
·
Learning about reel and real world: This is not directly related to the
industry vs. inferiority stage.
·
Children who feel shy to the outer world: This describes a potential consequence of inferiority but does not fully define the "industry and inferiority" stage.
