Erikson would say that the school-age child is experiencing industry versus inferiority. This stage of psychosocial development occurs during middle childhood, typically between the ages of 6 and 12. During this stage, children are focused on developing and mastering skills and competencies in various areas of life, including games and athletic activities. They strive to achieve a sense of competence and accomplishment, and failure to do so may lead to feelings of inferiority.
