✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Freud's Psychosexual Development: Anal Stage
According to Sigmund Freud's Psychosexual Development Theory, the Anal Stage occurs approximately from 1.5 to 3 years of age, where the child's focus centers on bladder and bowel control and toilet training.
- Harsh Training (Anal-Retentive): If parents are overly strict or punitive, the child develops an Anal-Retentive personality, characterized by extreme stinginess, stubbornness, meticulous cleanliness, and rigid control.
- Lenient Training (Anal-Expulsive): Conversely, excessively lax training leads to an Anal-Expulsive personality, resulting in messy and disorganized traits.
Therefore, option B accurately describes the anal-retentive personality trait.
