What may result if a child successfully completes the autonomy versus shame and doubt stage?

  1. Increased dependence on others

  2. Lack of self-esteem

  3. Confidence in their own survival

  4. Feelings of mistrust in the world

The correct answer is: Confidence in their own survival

Successfully completing the autonomy versus shame and doubt stage allows a child to develop a sense of self and confidence in their own abilities. This means they are no longer dependent on others for their basic needs and can trust in their own abilities to survive and thrive. The other options are incorrect because increased dependence on others and lack of self-esteem would be outcomes of not successfully completing this stage. Feelings of mistrust in the world would be a result of not successfully completing the trust versus mistrust stage.
