In Neo-Freudian psychology , the Electra complex , as proposed by Carl Jung in his Theory of Psychoanalysis , [1] [2] is a girl's psychosexual competition with her mother for possession of her father. In the course of her psychosexual development, the complex is the girl's phallic stage ; a boy's analogous experience is the Oedipus complex. The Electra complex occurs in the third—phallic stage ages 3—6 —of five psychosexual development stages: i the Oral , ii the Anal , iii the Phallic , iv the Latent , and v the Genital —in which the source of libido pleasure is in a different erogenous zone of the infant's body. In classical psychoanalytic theory, the child's identification with the same-sex parent is the successful resolution of the Electra complex and of the Oedipus complex ; his and her key psychological experience to developing a mature sexual role and identity.
