Julio, a 12-year-old, cannot get his science project to work. in fact, it seems to him that nothing he makes ever works properly. in the context of erik erikson's eight stages of human development, julio is at risk for developing a sense of?

Inferiority

Explanation:

Erik Erikson proposed a psychosocial theory that explains how we develop our personality through our lifespan by going through crisis involving two opposite things and solving the crisis in an adequate or inadequate way.

The stage that corresponds to 12-year-olds is "industry vs. inferiority", during this stage the child feels the need to win approval by demonstrating specific competencies that are valued by society and begin to develop a sense of pride in their accomplishments.

If this need is met, they begin to feel industrious and competent and feel confident about their ability to achieve their goals.  If this doesn't happen, the child begins to feel inferior, doubting his own abilities and he might develop a sense of inferiority.

In this example, Julio has 12 years old and it seems to him that nothing he makes works properly. He is not feeling industrious or competent about his abilities so, according to the stage he's in, he might develop a sense of inferiority.

a sense of inferiority

Explanation:

According to Erickson 's industry versus inferiority a child goes through a stage in which when they receive support and encouragement they are likely to develop confidence , believe in themselves and tackles more complex activities however it f the child get that kind of support and encouragement they are likely to doubt their own ability to succeed and start to develop a feeling of being a failure and inferiority

Children who who don't feel like they can accomplish things or be competent in anything will have this feeling where they don't trust their own ability , they feel others are more capable and better

As as result they pull back from trying new things because they feel they will never leave up to expectations. This is a sense of inferiority that Julio is feeling .
