Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to Erikson, stagnation is the inability to contribute to a society's continuation. This stage is associated with middle adulthood and is characterized by a lack of productivity and a feeling of being stuck in one's life. Therefore, option C is the best choice. Option A is incorrect because it is related to the concept of 'hassles' and not stagnation. Option B is incorrect because the formation of the superego happens during early childhood, not during middle adulthood. Option D is incorrect because there is no association between stagnation and 'encapsulated manner' thinking.
