In which stage of erikson’s psychosocial stages of development does the understanding of control over one's own actions occur?

The correct answer is Stage 2- Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt.

According to Erikson's theory of the stages of psychosocial development, the second stage of development individuals go through during their lifespan is known as the Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt stage. During this stage, between 18 months- 3 years of age, children become aware of the control they have of their body and their ability to do things autonomously. During this stage, children express their autonomy by choosing which toy or game to play, choosing which clothes to wear, etc.
