What is the primary objective of the Generativity vs. Stagnation stage?

Achieving financial success
Establishing a career and family
Achieving personal satisfaction
Understanding one's childhood

The correct answer is: Establishing a career and family

The primary objective of the Generativity vs. Stagnation stage, which is typically associated with middle adulthood in Erik Erikson's psychosocial development theory, revolves around contributing to society and supporting the next generation. In this stage, individuals focus on establishing a career, nurturing relationships, and often starting a family, which aligns with the idea of generativity. The goal is to create a legacy, whether through work, family, or community involvement. Achieving personal satisfaction, financial success, or understanding one's childhood may be aspects of an individual's life journey but do not encapsulate the core focus of this stage, which emphasizes productivity, care for others, and contributing positively to society.
