Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to Erik Erikson's theory of psychosocial development, during the first stage (infancy), children develop a sense of trust or mistrust based on their early experiences. Miranda's experience of a lot of bickering and separation from her parents may have led to a basic sense of mistrust.
