Sigmund Freud constructed his theory of personality from a handful of case studies (page 26).

5. Freud’s View of Dreams According to Freud dreams have 2 components:
(pages 281-282)
Manifest Content-the storyline of our dreams-sometimes incorporates traces of previous days’ experiences and preoccupations.
Latent Content-censored symbolic version-consists of unconscious drives and wishes that may be threatening if expressed directly.
6. Sigmund Freud’s Psychoanalytic Perspective 1856-1939
“I was the only worker in a new field.”
Love him or hate him, Sigmund Freud has profoundly influenced
Western culture. To recognize his influence, we need to understand
Freud’s ideas concerning the unconscious, psychosexual stages, and
mechanisms for defending anxiety. (page 576)
7. Personality Theory According to Freud(pages 575-586) Personality is defined in our textbook as follows:
Our characteristic pattern of thinking, feeling, and acting.
Freud’s psychoanalytic perspective proposed that childhood sexuality and unconscious motivations influence personality.
Freud called his theory and associated techniques psychoanalysis.
Unconsious-large below the surface area which contains thoughts, wishes,
feelings and memories, of which we are unaware.
Free association-the patient is asked to relax and say whatever comes to mind,
no matter how embarrassing or trivial.
8. Personality Structure according to Freud ID-a reservoir of unconscious psychic energy constantly striving to satisfy basic drives to survive, reproduce, and aggress.
The id operates on the pleasure principle: If not constrained bu reality, it seeks immediate gratification.
Ego-the largely conscious, “executive” part of personality that, according to Freud, mediates the demands of the id, superego, and reality.
The ego operates on the reality principle, satisfying the id’s desires in ways that will realistically bring pleasure rather than pain.
Superego-represents internalized ideals and provides standards for judgment (the conscious) and for future aspirations.
9. Freud’s Psychosexual Stages STAGE
Oral (0-18 months)
Anal (18-36 months)
Phallic (3-6 years)
Latency (6 to puberty)
Genital (puberty on)
FOCUS
Pleasure centers on the mouth-sucking, chewing, biting
Pleasure focuses on bowel and bladder elimination; coping with demands for control
Pleasure zone is the genitals; coping with incestuous sexual feelings
Dormant sexual feeling
Maturation of sexual interest
10. Important Psychosexual Stage Theory Vocabulary Oedipus complex-a boy’s sexual desires toward his mother and feelings of jealousy and hatred for the rival father
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.
11. DEFENSE MECHANISMTactics that reduce or redirect anxiety in various ways, but always by distorting reality. (page 580) Repression
Regression
Reaction formation
Projection
Rationalization
Displacement banishes anxiety-arousing thoughts and feelings from consciousness
retreating to an earlier, more infantile stage of development
the ego unconsciously makes unacceptable impulses look like their opposites
Attributing one’s own unacceptable threatening impulses to others
offers self-justifying explanations in place of the real, more threatening, unconscious reasons for one’s actions
shifts sexual or aggressive impulses toward a more acceptable or less threatening object or person, as when redirecting anger toward a safer outlet
12. ASSESSING THE UNCONSCIOUSProjective Tests
Thematic Apperception Test-a test in which people view ambiguous pictures and then make up stories.
Rorschach Inkblot Test-a set of 10 inkblots, seeks to identify people’s inner feelings by analyzing their interpretations of the inkblots.
