Detailed explanation-1: -Psychoanalytic theory suggested that personality is mostly established by the age of five. Early experiences play a large role in personality development and continue to influence behavior later in life.
Detailed explanation-2: -The phallic stage, in which the libido focuses on the genitalia, represents the culmination of infantile sexuality. Although it typically occurs between the ages of 3 to 5 years old, it sets the stage for adult sexuality. Therefore, it is a very important period.
Detailed explanation-3: -Stage III: 3-6 years old, phallic, genitalia: This is perhaps the most controversial stage of Freud’s psychosexual development. This is the stage in which the child begins to experience pleasure associated with their genitalia.
Detailed explanation-4: -The superego, the last component of personality to develop, starts to emerge around the age of five when a child interacts more and more with others, learning the social rules for right and wrong.
