d. autonomy.

The correct answer is d. According to Erikson, Anissa will most likely develop a sense of autonomy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Erik Erikson, American psychoanalyst, in 1950 proposed the theory of the eight ages of psychosocial development, which allow personal and psychosocial development, marking the foundations of evolutionary psychology. In the autonomy versus shame and doubt stage, the child begins to become more independent, he/she learns to walk and speak, the child begins to control his bowels and how to express what he/she likes and what he/she does not like. This greater "power" over his/her body and around his/her causes his/her to begin to gain a sense of autonomy. The own feeling of autonomy and the attitude adopted by the parents are fundamental in the development of the child's autonomy. Shame and doubt appear as compensators for this force. This period between one and a half and three years is called the 'terrible 2 years', which mark autonomy, and increase around 3 and a half years, beginning to decrease at 6.
