    The answer is A. Gender stability.

    Explanation:

    With his cognitive developmental theory of gender, Kohlberg aims to explain the process through which children develop an understanding of gender and sex. The first stage is called gender identity in which children realize that they are male or female and that other people as well; Kelly has achieved this stage.

    The next stage is called gender stability, in which children understand the permanence of gender, that is, if a person is male or female, he or she will continue to be male or female in the future. This stage occurs when a child is approximately four years old.

    Kelly has not yet achieved gender stability because she believes that her neighbor, who she used to identify as a female, can now be a man, based on a change of her appearance.
