Detailed explanation-1: -Stage 4: Latency or School Age Stage The fourth stage in Erikson’s theory occurs throughout elementary and middle school, or between 6 and 11 years of age.

Detailed explanation-2: -Third, Erikson (1959) characterized middle childhood as a time of “industry versus inferiority” when the child’s attention is focused on acquiring new competencies and skills and learning how to get along with others, including peers and adults across a variety of contexts.
Detailed explanation-3: -Erikson’s fourth stage of identity typically occurs between the ages of 7-13 and involves industry vs. inferiority. When a child successfully navigates this stage, they develop competency. Competency becomes a big part of confidence as we develop in life and plays a strong role in the next stage of identity.
