The correct answer is

Erik Erikson's theory of psychosocial development describes eight stages, each centred on a specific crisis that must be resolved for healthy development.

The stage corresponding to adolescence is Identity vs Role Confusion, during which individuals work to establish a stable sense of personal identity and their role in society.

Trust vs Mistrust corresponds to infancy, Initiative vs Guilt to early childhood, and Integrity vs Despair to late adulthood, so none of these match the adolescent stage.
