Chewing, sucking and biting are chief sources of pleasure and these actions reduces tension in the infant.

III. Phallic StageIII. Phallic Stage It occurs between the
ages of 3-6. The word “phallic”
comes the Latin word “phallus,” which means “penis.”
During this stage, pleasure focuses on the genitals as the child discovers that self-stimulation is enjoyable.

Importance of Phallic StageImportance of Phallic Stage
In Freud’s view, the phallic stage has a special importance in personality development because this period triggers the Oedipus Complex.

What is the Oedipus Complex?What is the Oedipus Complex?
The Oedipus Complex is the young child’s development of an intense desire to replace the parent of the same sex and enjoy the affection of the opposite-sex parent.
![Page 19: Freud's psychosexual development](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051609/546c1680af7959d3168b4ca6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Resolving the Oedipus ComplexResolving the Oedipus Complex
At about 5-6 years of age, children recognize that their same-sex parent might punish them for their incestuous wishes.
To reduce the conflict, the child identifies with the same-sex parent, striving to be like him/her.
If the conflict is not resolved, the individual may become fixated at the phallic stage.
