Discussion
Jagriti and Kirti have a 13-month-old baby girl. As per Erikson's theory their sensitive and loving care of their daughter contributes to :
Answer: A
Their care contributes to the child's sense of basic trust.
In Erik Erikson's psychosocial theory, the first stage, from birth to about 18 months, is trust versus mistrust. A baby whose needs are met by sensitive, loving and consistent care comes to feel that the world is safe and people are dependable, and so develops basic trust. A 13-month-old is still in this stage.
Secure attachment is a concept from Bowlby and Ainsworth's attachment theory, not from Erikson. A sense of control, or autonomy, belongs to Erikson's second stage, from about 18 months to 3 years, and 'desire fulfillment' is not one of his outcomes.
