- Psychoanalytic Theory of Development Freud
- Dynamic component
- Psychic energy- bioloically based - operates in a closed system - distribution based on many factors
- EROS - primary source of energy = life instincts - main focus on sexual
- Libido - special energy form to maintian development
- Thanatos - death and aggresion instincts
- Goal of instincts = reduction of tension - consume less energy as person develops
- Unconscious controls early behaviour
- Structural Component
- ID - present at bith - storehouse for instincts energy invested in reflexes satifying needs
- Accomplishes tention reduction via pleasure principle (gratification) - thus no constraints
- Energy uncousious remains active thoughout life
- can't distinguish real / unreal - uses primary process of thinking
- EGO- result of interaction with environment- develops because of ID inability to satify all.
- Can distinguish real / unreal
- Secondary process thinking allows planned behaviour
- Allows direct tension reduction by acting with intention - pleasure becomes rational ego - govened by reality principle
- Energy taken from ID. EGO acts as mediator between ID & SUPEREGO
- SUPEREGO - devlops late childhood - inhibits ID from expressing inapropriate impulses
- Develops as result of conflicting experiences, the psychoc energy is called EGO ideal
- ID - present at bith - storehouse for instincts energy invested in reflexes satifying needs
- Defence Mechanisms
- Devlop with EGO - moderates discomfort
- Repression, sublimation, reaction formation, regression, denail, projection
- Technique used by ego to distort realitiy and prevent disruption of development
- Sequential component
- At each stage psychic energy focus on particular erogenous zone
- Oral - 0-1 stimulation of mouth - Id energy
- Anal - 1-4 elimination reduces tension - toliet training = conflict in delayed and immediate gratification
- Phallic 4-6 personality changes, parental complexes produce
- Oedipus/ Electra - male sexually desitres mother but inferiour to father creating fear - begins development of superego
- Ectra complex (Female) - inferior for lack of penis - (rejection of mother for lack of sex organs) realise best gratificationis identification of mother
- Latency Stage 7- adolescence - inhibition erogenous zone energy displaced to others
- Genital Stage 12+ early conflict reviewed - linked to psychic identity, sex role reconsidered - mature personlaity established- hard to change later
- Dynamic component
