.......................... stage is not enumerated by Erikson in his psycho-social theory of development.
Answer: C
The stage not in Erikson's theory is humour versus anger.
Erik Erikson described eight psychosocial stages, each with its own crisis: trust versus mistrust (infancy), autonomy versus shame and doubt (early childhood), initiative versus guilt (preschool), industry versus inferiority (school age), identity versus role confusion (adolescence), intimacy versus isolation (young adulthood), generativity versus stagnation (middle adulthood) and integrity versus despair (old age).
Trust versus mistrust, autonomy versus shame and initiative versus guilt are the first three stages. Humour versus anger is not among the eight, so it is the one not enumerated.
