  • b. moratorium
  • c. identity achievement

The answer is role confusion.

Explanation:

Role confusion is a possible state in Erikson's fifth stage of psychosocial development. During this stage, which appears around age twelve, the teenager must develop a sense of personal identity: establishing goals and finding a suitable place in society. Success in this stage leads to the virtue of fidelity, which means commiting to one's beliefs and values. Failure in this stage leads to role confusion, in which the person does not experience a sense of belonging to society.
