Learning Target Explain Freud’s theory of the mind and how it contributes to anxiety.
Theory of the MindBODIES OF MIND
Id Present at birth Found in the unconscious mind Founded in basic sexual and aggression
drives Operates on the pleasure principle Ego Mediator Operates on the reality principle: good and
reason Superego Ideals and standards we learn from growing
up in society What we should do Too strong=guilt, Too weak=impulsive
LEVELS OF CONSCIOUSNESS Conscious Thoughts and feelings we are aware of Preconscious Thoughts and memories we are not
currently thinking about But are easily retrieved Unconscious Unacceptable thoughts, wishes, feelings and
memories Things we can’t access Become exposed in dreams, hypnosis, free
association, and Freudian slips
Defense Mechanisms Conflict between the id and superego causes anxiety Ego utilizes unconscious defense mechanisms to relieve tension Seven Defense Mechanisms
1. Repression2. Regression
3. Denial4. Reaction5. Projection
6. Rationalization7. Displacement
Learning Target Explain the seven Freudian defense mechanisms and be able to identify the characteristics of each in order to apply them to individuals and scenarios.
Repression (intermediate) What is it: Unconscious burying of unpleasant information into the unconscious to protect the ego Goal of psychoanalysis is to bring repressed info to the surface Characteristics of repressors: Fewer personal memories High level of arousal to emotional situations Simple and non-specific memories Engage in impulsive/immature behavior
Regression (immature) What is it: Retreating to a more comfortable stage Characteristics: Immature Childish Examples?
Denial What is it: Refusing to admit
that something unpleasant is happening
Refusing to recognize the unpleasant emotions associated with the event
Examples??
Reaction Formation What is it: Expressing the opposite (and usually exaggerated) feeling of the anxiety producing emotion Characteristics Gullible Strong desire to be loved or liked High moral standards Examples??
Rationalization What is it: Justifying anxiety producing behavior Similar to Intellectualization What is it: removing the emotion
from the situation. KISS: thinking about something in a
cold and critical way Characteristics Rational Obsessive Examples??
Displacement (intermediate) What is it: Attacking an item that comes to symbolize the cause of anxiety KISS: acting out on something or moving the feelings to a
safer target Characteristics Aggressive Examples
Projection (Immature)
What is it: Putting your feelings on others KISS: Thinking
someone has your feelings
Examples??
Mature Defense Mechanisms: coping strategies
Humor Sublimation: channeling impulses into socially acceptable behavior Suppression: consciously trying to stop thinking about something Altruism: civil service that brings personal satisfaction

Exit Ticket Based on your information of defense mechanisms, write a two paragraph reflection on your personal defense mechanism assessment.
Paragraph One: What results would you expect before you took the assessment. Do you think you had high anxiety: why/why not. What mechanisms do you think you would use to handle anxiety: why?
Paragraph Two: Explain the results you obtained: why do you think you scored the way you did—can you rationalize it? Are there any points of confusion or things you disagree with? Why did the results turn out or not turn out as you expected.
Do Now Answer the following two questions in your notebook:
-What is repression and why do we use it?
-When over the course of an individual’s life does the ego, superego, and id emerge?
Learning Target Describe the oral, anal, phallic, latency, and genital stage of psychosexual development and identify individuals “stuck” in each stage.
Freud’s Stages of Personality Development Personality is set by age seven! Problems in adults come from poorly resolved conflicts during childhood Who else discussed conflict during childhood as a
foundation for later issues??? In each stage the id focuses on a different part of the body
Oral Stage Age: 1-18 months Focus Pleasure Center: mouth Behaviors: Sucking, biting, chewing Conflict Weaning Failure: Oral Fixation Gum chewing, fingernail biting, smoking Emotional Dependence
Anal Stage Age: 18-36 months Focus Pleasure Center: bowel and bladder function Behaviors: Controlling bowel and bladder
function Conflict: Potty Training Failure: anal fixation Dominating Requires things neat and perfect; too much
control (inverse is not enough control, messy)
Phallic Stage Age: 3-6 years Focus Pleasure Center: Genitals Behaviors: coping with incestuous feelings Conflict: Oedipus Conflict Love for their mothers and hatred, fear, or jealousy of the father Fear punishment from the father Views father as competition Other psychoanalytic psychologists propose an Electra Complex Fixation: obsession with phallic objects and emotional power
Latency Stage Age: 6-Puberty Focus Dormant sexual feelings Conflict: Repress feelings towards rival parent; identification process Children now view the same
sex parent as a role modelgender identity
What defense mechanism does this remind you of?
Genital Stage Age: Puberty on Focus: maturation of sexual interests Mature sexual relationships
