Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Electra complex refers specifically to the psychosexual stage during which a girl experiences attraction to her father and feelings of competition with her mother. This stage occurs during the phallic stage of development, which occurs between the ages of 3 and 6 years old. The Oedipus complex, on the other hand, refers to equivalent feelings of attraction and competition experienced by boys. Therefore, choice B, which references the Electra complex during the phallic stage, is the most accurate answer.
