According to Erikson, a 2-year-old child who is harshly punished for accidents during toilet training may experience what types of issues later in life?

Choice A reason: Mid-life crises occur in adulthood and are not directly related to early childhood toilet training experiences. Choice B reason: Harsh punishment during the autonomy vs. shame and doubt stage (ages 1-3) can lead to long-term issues with self-esteem, self-doubt, and difficulty exercising self-control. Choice C reason: Creative inhibition is not directly linked to toilet training but rather to suppressed self-expression in other contexts. Choice D reason: Conversion disorder involves neurological symptoms without medical cause and is not a direct consequence of toilet training experiences.
