According to Sigmund Freud's Psychosexual Development Theory, when a child passes through the 'Phallic Stage', what is the most prominent psychological phenomenon of this stage, and how does it influence the child's personality development?

Understanding Freud's Phallic Stage

According to Sigmund Freud's theory of psychosexual development, the Phallic Stage (occurring roughly from ages 3 to 6) is a critical period where the primary focus of libidinal energy is on the genital area.

• Oedipus Complex: Boys experience unconscious sexual desires for their mothers and rivalry toward their fathers.
• Electra Complex: Girls experience analogous feelings toward their fathers.
• Resolution & Identification: To resolve the anxiety associated with this conflict, the child represses these feelings and adopts the characteristics, values, and gender role of the same-sex parent, which heavily contributes to the development of the Superego and conscience.

Therefore, option B is the correct and most scientifically accurate description of this stage.
