1 What is Personality? Personality an individual s characteristic pattern of thinking, feeling, and acting basic perspectives covering how personality develops and is assessed Psychoanalytic Humanistic

2 The Psychoanalytic Perspective From Sigmund Freud s ( ) theory which proposes that childhood sexuality and unconscious motivations influence personality

3 The Psychoanalytic Perspective Psychoanalysis Freud s theory of personality that attributes our thoughts and actions to unconscious motives and conflicts techniques used in treating psychological disorders by seeking to expose and interpret unconscious conflicts & motives, by providing insight into one s thoughts & actions

4 Freud s theory of psychoanalysis grew from his early observation that some patients who consulted him seemed to have no physical cause. Freud experimented with hypnosis, but found that some patients could not be hypnotized and thus developed the technique of:

5 The Psychoanalytic Perspective Free Association in psychoanalysis, a method of exploring the unconscious mind person relaxes and says whatever comes to mind, no matter how trivial or embarrassing

7 Personality Structure Ego Id Superego Conscious mind Unconscious mind Freud s compared the human mind s structure to an iceberg

8 The Psychoanalytic Perspective Unconscious according to Freud, a reservoir of mostly unacceptable thoughts, wishes, feelings, desires, & memories. If he could patients open the door to the unconscious mind, they could recover from painful childhood memories and heal. contemporary viewpoint- information processing of which we are unaware

9 The conscious mind are the thoughts and feelings that we are aware of. The preconscious mind consists of thoughts & memories not in our current awareness but easily retrieved. Freud believed that our personality grows out of a basic human conflict. Each of us is born with aggressive, pleasure seeking biological impulses.

10 But we live in a society that restrains these impulses. The way that each of us resolves the conflict between social restraints and pleasure seeking impulses shapes our individual personality. Three forces interact during this conflict:

11 Personality Structure Id contains a reservoir of unconscious energy strives to satisfy basic sexual and aggressive drives operates on the pleasure principle, demanding immediate gratification

12 Personality Structure Superego the part of personality that presents internalized ideals and standards for judgement. It is the voice of conscience that focuses on what we should do.

13 Personality Structure Ego the largely conscious part of personality mediates among the demands of the id, superego, operates on the reality principle, satisfying the id s desires in ways that will realistically bring pleasure rather than pain. Represents good sense & reason.

19 Freud concluded that our personality is formed during the first 5 to 6 years of life. He believed that his patient s problems originated in conflicts that had not been resolved during childhood years. Freud believed the patient had become FIXATED or stuck on one of the psychosexual stages of development. Each stage is marked by the id s pleasure seeking focus on a different part of the body.

20 Personality Development Identification the process by which children incorporate their parents values into their developing superegos Fixation a lingering focus of pleasure-seeking energies at an earlier psychosexual stage, where conflicts were unresolved

21 Personality Development Psychosexual Stages the childhood stages of development during which the id s pleasure-seeking energies focus on distinct erogenous zones Oedipus Complex a boy s sexual desires toward his mother and feelings of jealousy and hatred for the rival father during the phallic stage

22

23 Personality Development Freud s Psychosexual Stages Stage Focus Oral Pleasure centers on the mouth-- (0-18 months) sucking, biting, chewing Anal Pleasure focuses on bowel and bladder (18-36 months) elimination; coping with demands for control Phallic Pleasure zone is the genitals; coping with (3-6 years) incestuous sexual feelings Latency (6 to puberty) Genital (puberty on) Dormant sexual feelings Maturation of sexual interests

24 School of Life - Freud

25 How does the ego negotiate between the id & the superego? Clashes are called intrapsychic or psychodynamic conflicts. Process can cause stress & anxiety. Ego tries to prevent anxiety, guilt & other unpleasant feelings. Sometimes the ego helps us negotiate situations well & sometimes we use Defense Mechanisms

26 Defense Mechanisms Defense Mechanisms the ego s protective methods of reducing anxiety by unconsciously distorting reality

27 Defense Mechanisms Repression the basic defense mechanism that banishes anxiety-arousing thoughts, feelings, and memories from consciousness

28 Defense Mechanisms Regression defense mechanism in which an individual faced with anxiety retreats to a more infantile psychosexual stage

29 Defense Mechanisms DENIAL refusal to accept reality, the truth. SUBLIMATION- Channeling one s frustrations towards another, more positive goal.

30 Defense Mechanisms Reaction Formation defense mechanism by which the ego unconsciously switches unacceptable impulses into their opposites people may express feelings that are the opposite of their anxiety-arousing unconscious feelings

31 Defense Mechanisms Projection defense mechanism by which people disguise their own threatening impulses by attributing them to others Rationalization defense mechanism that offers selfjustifying explanations in place of the real, more threatening, unconscious reasons for one s actions

32 Defense Mechanisms Displacement defense mechanism that shifts sexual or aggressive impulses toward a more acceptable or less threatening object or person as when redirecting anger toward a safer outlet

33 Defense Mechanisms Everywhere! Even in Will Ferrell movies

34 Neo-Freudians Those people that agreed with Freud s basic idea of psychoanalysis, but disagreed with specific parts.

35 You Try It! Id s Carl Jung (pg ) Ego s Alfred Adler (pg 385) Superego s Karen Horney (pg 386)

36 Carl Jung ( ) Freud s closest associate Believed that we have an individual unconsciousness as well as a: The Collective Unconscious concept of a shared, inherited reservoir of memory traces from our species history Archetypes Inherited idea based on experiences of one s ancestors shapes our experience of the world

37

39 Alfred Adler ( ) importance of childhood social tension were crucial in the development of personality. Believed that psychological problems in personalities were based on feeling of inferiority (complex). The way parents treat their children influences the styles of life they choose (overpampering vs neglection)

40

41 Karen Horney ( ) sought to balance Freud s masculine biases. Social expectations, not biological variables were the foundation of personality development. Anxiety is the helplessness & isolation that people feel in a hostile world as a result of the competitiveness of today s society. If children are raised in an atmosphere of love and security children can avoid Freud s psychosexual parent-child conflict
