Initiative vs. Guilt is a stage in Erik Erikson's theory of psychosocial development, which is a fundamental framework in psychology for understanding human growth across the lifespan. This stage, typically occurring between the ages of approximately three and five years, focuses on children's development of initiative, characterized by their ability to plan and undertake activities on their own, versus experiencing guilt for their actions or the outcomes of their initiatives. Erikson posited that successfully navigating this stage leads to a sense of purpose, while failure results in feelings of guilt.
