According to Erikson's psychosocial theory, during which stage do adults struggle to find a balance between work and leisure activities?

Generativity Versus Stagnation
Autonomy Versus Shame
Intimacy Versus Isolation
Integrity Versus Despair

The correct answer is: Generativity Versus Stagnation

During Erikson's psychosocial theory, adults in the A Generativity Versus Stagnation stage struggle to find a balance between work and leisure activities. This is because this stage focuses on the challenge of creating and contributing to society while also maintaining a sense of personal fulfillment and enjoyment. This is in contrast to the other options, such as B: Autonomy Versus Shame, which focuses on the development of independence in childhood, or D: Integrity Versus Despair, which is typically seen in older adults as they reflect on their lives. C: Intimacy Versus Isolation also does not relate to the struggle between work and leisure activities, as it instead focuses on developing close relationships.
