Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Autonomy versus shame/doubt is successfully resolved when toddlers begin to understand self-control through achievements. This stage, according to Erik Erikson's theory, occurs between ages one and three, where toddlers learn to be independent and assert their will. If they are successful and receive positive reinforcement, they develop autonomy and confidence, but if they are criticized or punished, they can develop shame and doubt about their abilities.
