Correct Answer - Option 2 : autonomy

Adolescence marks the beginning development of complex thinking processes including abstract thinking, the ability to reason from known principles, the ability to consider many points of view according to varying criteria, and the ability to think about the process of thinking.

The adolescents show increased independent functioning and moving very fast to the stage of adults, they also show increased self-reliance in these activities.

  • The adolescence may fight with the parents or society in large regarding the rules and limits surrounding and hindering their autonomy.
  • Middle adolescence is characterized by growth in emotional autonomy and increasing detachment from family.
  • The bulk of physical growth and development is completed during this stage
  • Conflicts over personal choice, including food choices, become increasingly common during this stage 
  • Peer groups become more important than family (self-governing individual)
  • Thinks about and begins to make his/her own plans
  • Thinks about different possibilities and begins to develop their own identity
  • Having more global concepts such as justice, history, politics, and patriotism

Thus from above-mentioned points, it is clear that if fourteen-year-old Devika is attempting to develop a self-governing individual, she is developing autonomy.
