Fixation.

Explanation:

Freud claimed that personality evolved through a series of psycho-sexual stages that concentrated the Id's pleasure-seeking energies. These stages are the oral stage, the ana*l stage, the phallic stage, the latency stage, and genital stage. Fixations arise when a problem or conflict remains unresolved at a psycho-sexual level, leaving the person-centered on this stage and unable to move to the next stage.
