    The 8th Stage known as Integrity Vs Despair of Erikson's stages of Psychological development is being addressed here.

    Explanation:

    Ego psychologist, Erik Erikson coined the theory of psychological development. His theory iterated that our personality is developed at certain stages of an individual. The social experiences an individual has throughout his life contribute to the growth of an individual. The theory proposed 8 stages of psychological development.

    Anne is in the 8th stage of psychological development. It is the last stage and concentrates on individuals who are in their old age. In this stage, individuals reflect on the life that they have lived, the decisions they have made, their outcomes and how all of it has turned out for them in the end. One of two types of feelings will be present at the end of overall recollection of the life. People who realize that they have regrets about things they have done or not done will feel despair. As for the others who are content with what they have done and achieved in their lives will feel a sense of integrity.
