Which of the following is an example of psychosocial development?

  1. Language acquisition

  2. Achieving independence

  3. Primary motor development

  4. Apprenticeship learning

The correct answer is: Achieving independence

Achieving independence is an example of psychosocial development because it involves the development of social and emotional skills that allow individuals to form healthy relationships, make decisions, and become self-sufficient. Language acquisition (option A) is a type of cognitive development that involves the acquisition of language skills, not necessarily psychosocial skills. Primary motor development (option C) involves the development of physical abilities, rather than social or emotional skills. Apprenticeship learning (option D) is a type of educational model and does not directly involve psychosocial development.
