Upon a rigorous analysis of Sigmund Freud's Psychosexual Development Theory stages—Oral, Anal, Phallic, Latency, and Genital—and specifically the concepts of the 'Oedipus Complex' and 'Electra Complex' arising during the 'Phallic stage', if a young boy experiences an excessive emotional attachment towards his mother and rivalry or fear (such as castration anxiety) toward his father, which of the following statements is most authoritatively true in the context of Freud's developmental paradigm?

Understanding Freud's Psychosexual Stages

According to Sigmund Freud's theory of psychosexual development, children experience the Oedipus or Electra complex during the phallic stage (approximately 3 to 6 years of age).

• Oedipus Complex: Occurs in boys, characterized by a romantic attachment to the mother and rivalry toward the father.
• Resolution: The child resolves this conflict through identification with the same-sex parent (the father), internalizing their moral standards.

Therefore, option B is the correct and most authoritative statement.
