Answer:

D. individuative-reflective

Step-by-step explanation:

James W. Fowler has introduced the theory of the development of faith during 1981 that occurs across the life-span of an individual and consists of a total of six different stages in his theory. According to this theory, faith is described as a holistic orientation which is related to a person's association with the universe.

Individuative-reflective stage: It is considered as the fourth stage in the theory of the development of faith and occurs during the mid-twenties in an individual's life and lasts through the late thirties. It is considered a stage of struggle and angst. At this stage, an individual is capable of reflecting his or her beliefs, encounters openness to a new faith's complexity, yet increases the awareness related to the conflict in his or her belief.
