Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to the psychoanalytic perspective, individuals who seek constant reassurance and affection from others may be fixated at the oral stage of development. This stage occurs from birth to around 18 months and is focused on receiving comfort and nourishment through the mouth, such as through breastfeeding. A fixation at this stage may result in seeking oral stimulation through habits like smoking or overeating, or seeking emotional comfort through dependency on others.
