✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
According to Sigmund Freud's psychosexual development theory, the 'Phallic Stage' around the ages of 3 to 6 years is an extremely sensitive phase of personality development. In this stage, boys experience the 'Oedipus Complex', where they feel intense emotional and sexual attraction towards their mother and view the father as a rival. Conversely, girls exhibit the 'Electra Complex', in which they are attracted to their father and harbor competitive feelings toward the mother. Only after the successful resolution of this stage do children internalize their same-sex or opposite-sex social roles. To learn more on this topic, you can read the Wikipedia reference.
