Answer:

Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt.

Step-by-step explanation:

Erickson believed that human personality evolves through eight stages of psychological development, from infancy to adulthood and autonomy vs. shame and doubt was the second stage which started at the age of 18 months upto 2-3 years. At this level performance of the children will lead to the virtue of the will, they exert greater control over their lives. If children are encouraged in their increased independence at this point, they will become more confident and secure about their own ability to survive in the world.
