Five year old randy is in preschool and his teacher is showing him how to use a pair of scissors to cut paper. randy tries to show his independence and ability to use the scissors without assistance and says to his teacher, "let me! " erikson would say that randy is demonstrating what stage of development?

Initiative versus guilt stage

Explanation:

According to my research on Erikson's theory of psychosocial development, I can say that based on the information provided within the question Randy is demonstrating the Initiative versus guilt stage. This stage children become more assertive and feel confident in their abilities to lead and make decisions for other. Which seems to be what Randy is exhibiting by asserting his leadership abilities and using the scissors without adult assistance.
