Detailed Explanation
Detailed Explanation
According to Sigmund Freud's theory of psychosexual development, the Anal Stage (roughly 1.5 to 3 years) is centered around bowel and bladder control, where toilet training profoundly influences personality formation. If this training is overly strict, an 'anal-retentive' personality develops, exhibiting traits of orderliness, stubbornness, and parsimony.
Conversely, during the Latency Stage (approximately age 6 to puberty), the libido becomes dormant, and energy is redirected toward socialization, academics, and peer relationships rather than erotogenic zones.
- Anal-Retentive: Result of strict training leading to rigid, orderly, and stingy behaviors.
- Latency Stage: Channeling of sexual energy into social and intellectual pursuits.
Therefore, option (a) provides the most accurate scientific description of these two stages within psychoanalytic theory.
