Quick Quiz: Test Your Knowledge on Freud's Psychosexual Stages

📚 Quick Study Guide

• 🧠 Oral Stage (0-1 year): Focus is on oral gratification (sucking, biting). Key conflict: weaning. Fixation can lead to oral behaviors like smoking or overeating.
• 🍑 Anal Stage (1-3 years): Focus is on bowel and bladder control. Key conflict: toilet training. Fixation can result in anal-retentive (obsessive, tidy) or anal-expulsive (messy, disorganized) traits.
• 🍆 Phallic Stage (3-6 years): Focus is on the genitals. Key events: Oedipus complex (boys) and Electra complex (girls), leading to identification with the same-sex parent and development of the superego.
• ⏸️ Latency Stage (6-puberty): Sexual feelings are relatively dormant. Focus is on social and intellectual development.
• ❤️‍🔥 Genital Stage (puberty onward): Maturation of sexual interests. Focus is on establishing mature sexual relationships. Success in earlier stages leads to a well-adjusted adult.
