Solution:

Erik Erikson's theory suggested that a person's personality develops in a predetermined order through eight stages of psychosocial development, from infancy to adulthood. During each stage, the person experiences a psychosocial crisis which could have a positive or negative outcome for personality development.Erikson's eight stages of psychosocial development include:Trust vs. Mistrust.Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt.Initiative vs. Guilt.Industry vs. Inferiority.Identity vs. Role Confusion.Intimacy vs. Isolation.Generativity vs. Stagnation.Ego Integrity vs. Despair.We will discuss the four stages according to the question:Erik's Stages of Psychosocial DevelopmentFeaturesBasic trust versus Basic mistrustThe first stage of Erikson's theory of psychosocial development occurs between birth and 12 -18 month of age and is the most fundamental stage in life.Because an infant is utterly dependent, developing trust is based on the dependability and quality of the child's caregivers.Initiative versus GuiltThe third stage of psychosocial development takes place between 3 to 6 years of age.Children who are successful at this stage feel capable and able to lead others.Those who fail to acquire these skills are left with a sense of guilt, self-doubt, and lack of initiative.Intimacy versus IsolationThis stage covers the period of early or young adulthood when people are exploring personal relationships.Success leads to strong relationships, while failure results in loneliness and isolation.Ego integrity versus DespairThe final psychosocial stage occurs during late adulthood and is focused on reflecting back on life.At this point in development, people look back on the events of their lives and determine if they are happy with the life that they lived or if they regret the things they did or didn't do.So, the correct option is option 1 (A ? lV, B ? lll, C ? l, D ? lI)
