Ans: C
In the stage before young adulthood—adolescence—the young adult would have successfully developed identity, achieving the outcome of devotion and fidelity. A young adult is experiencing a current developmental conflict of intimacy versus isolation, with the ultimate long-term outcome of achieving affiliation and love. Drive and hope are the long-term outcomes of infancy. Direction and purpose are the long-term outcomes of the preschool stage. Production and care are the long-term outcomes of adulthood, which the young adult has yet to reach.
