Report On Psycho Analysis

Sigmund Freud is considered the father of psychoanalysis. Psychoanalysis is a set of theories and therapeutic techniques that deal with the unconscious mind and form a method of treatment for mental disorders. The goal is to make the unconscious conscious by bringing repressed emotions and conflicts to the surface. Techniques include free association, dream analysis, and analysis of slips of the tongue. Freud proposed that the mind has three parts - the conscious mind, preconscious mind, and unconscious mind. The unconscious mind influences behavior and contains memories too painful to face consciously. Jung expanded on Freud's work and proposed concepts like the collective unconscious and archetypes.

Introduction:
The man behind
Psychoanalysis
Sigmund Freud
–born Sigismund Freud on 6 May, 1856 is an Austrian
neurologist and author most famously known as the proposer
or the mind behind Psychoanalysis.
- He published his notable books entitled, “Studieson Hysteria” (1895) and
“Interpretation of Dreams” (1899).

- Considered the father of modern psychology, his theories and ideas on the
connections that exist between the conscious mind, the subconscious mind, the
body, and the world around us are still as widely known as they were when he first
espoused them at the turn of the 20th century.
What is
Psychoanalysis?
ETYMOLOGY:
PSYCHE: SOUL. ANALYSIS: INVESTIGATE
Psychoanalysis
- is a set of theories and therapeutic techniques that deal in
part with the unconscious mind, and which together form a
method of treatment for mental disorders.
- In Psychoanalysis, Freud’s main goal aims to release
repressed emotions, to make the unconscious conscious.

- There are basic assumptions to Psychoanalysis.


Basic Assumptions
1. Psychoanalytic psychologists see psychological problems as rooted in
the unconscious mind.
2. Manifest symptoms are caused by latent (hidden) disturbances.
3. Typical causes include unresolved issues during development or
repressed trauma.
4. Freud believed that people could be cured by making conscious their
unconscious thoughts and motivations, thus gaining insight.
5. Treatment focuses on bringing the repressed conflict to consciousness,
where the client can deal with it.
Therapeutic

ETYMOLOGY
THERAPEUTIKOS: TO TREAT OR TO ATTEND
Therapeutic Techniques
- The psychoanalyst uses various techniques as
encouragement for the client to develop insights into their
behavior and the meanings of symptoms, including inkblots,
parapraxes, free association, interpretation (including dream
analysis).
1. Free Association – Free association is a practice in
psychoanalytic therapy, in which a patient talks of whatever
comes into their mind.

2. Rorschach inkblots - The Rorschach test is a projective


psychological test in which subjects' perceptions of inkblots
are recorded and then analyzed using psychological
interpretation, complex algorithms, or both.

 
3. Dream Analysis - is the interpretation of dreams to determine their
underlying meanings. The basic assumption of Freud’s dream analysis is that
nearly all dreams are wish fulfillments.

4. Freudian Slips - or parapraxis, refers to what you might also call a slip of the
tongue. It's when you mean to say one thing but instead say something
entirely different. It commonly happens when you're talking but can also occur
when typing or writing something down — and even in your memory (or lack
thereof).

5. Hypnosis – Early experiences with hypnosis helped Freud to understand that


there was more to the human mind than what one can bring into awareness.
He argued late in his career that hypnosis provided proof for the existence of
the unconscious

6. Humor - According to Freud, for a joke to be funny, it must contain anxiety-


provoking material. If you want to know what has been repressed in a person’s
mind, examine what he or she finds humorous.
Personality Theory
Sigmund Freud developed a topographical model of the mind, whereby
he described the features of the minds structure and function Freud
used the analogy of an iceberg to describe the three levels of the mind .

Which are the:


1. Conscious mind
2. Unconscious mind
3. Preconscious mind

Carl Jung - was the Swiss psychologist and psychiatrist who


founded analytic psychology. Jung believed that the psych or the
“mind” was driven toward individuation.
1. The Conscious mind - According to Jung consciousness is
comprised of four thinking aspects - Thinking, feeling, sensing,
and intuiting. There are 4 levels of performance consciousness.

A. Unconscious incompetent - you don’t know what you don’t know. The learner isn’t
aware that a skill or knowledge or gap even exists.

B. Unconscious competent - In unconscious competence, the individual has enough


experience with the skill that they can perform it so easily they do it unconsciously.

C. Conscious incompetent - is when the learner is aware of a skill or knowledge gap and
understands the importance of acquiring the new skill. It’s the stage that learning
can begin.

D. Conscious competent - in conscious competence, the learner knows how to use the
skill or perform the task, but doing so requires practice, conscious thought and hard
work
2. The Unconscious mind - According to Sigmund Freud the
unconscious mind is the primary source of human behavior.
Like an iceberg, the most important part of the mind is the part
you cannot see.

Jung developed and proposed the psychological concepts of the


collective unconscious and introverted and extroverted personalities.
Jung believed that the collective unconscious is responsible for several
beliefs, instincts, sexual behavior, etc...
 
The Collective Conscious - The part of the mind where memories and
impulses of which the individual doesn’t acknowledge. Someone might not
know what thoughts or images are in their collective unconscious mind
but in the moment of rush or crisis the psyche can tap into it. But to
understand the collective unconscious you must have some understanding
of archetypes.
Archetypes - Are symbols, patterns of thinking or behaving that we inherit
from our cultures. Jung believed that some archetypes overlap or combine
with time. Jung proposed that the unconscious mind include these aspects:

1. Anima - is the unconscious feminine side of a male.


Example: Positive anima- patient, compassionate, considerate and
Negative - moody, vain, insecure.
1. Hero: They will have a noble goal and fight to fix themselves.
2. Persona: the personality that you will show to people and not your
“true” personality.
3. Self: The whole personality; the total psych.
4. Shadow: The psyche's immoral and “dark side” of a personality.
5. Trickster: The irrational, chaotic, crafty, etc... example- childish side.
6. Wise old man: The self-figure of wisdom or knowledgeable.
Subconscious Mind - contains all the information of everything
you have ever experienced the unconscious mind comprises
mental processes that are inaccessible to consciousness, because
of this it influences how you react to things, your judgments,
feelings or behavior as to why you are shy, lazy, eat too much, etc.

Memories and emotions that are too painful, embarrassing,


anxiety, shameful, or distressing to consciously face is stored in
the enormous reservoir that makes up the unconscious mind.
The Preconscious mind - is a part of the mind that corresponds to
ordinary memory. These memories are not conscious, but we can
retrieve them to conscious awareness at any time. It exists just below
the level of conscious and right above the unconscious like an iceberg.

- Preconscious thoughts are available for recall and easily capable of


becoming outside the unconscious.

- The preconscious memories are definition long-term memories. Long term memories have fully been encoded
and remain part of memory even when they are not contemplated for long periods of time. Short term memories
are memories held for brief periods of time usually only a few seconds that must be rehearsed to be recalled.
 
Nondeclarative memory - is a type of long-term memory that stands in contrast to explicit memory in that it
doesn’t require conscious thought. It allows you to do things by rote. This memory isn’t always easy to verbalize
since it flows effortlessly on our actions.
 
The loci method - is a memory enhancement technique that combines visualization with spatial
memory of familiar environments to recall information.
 
The ID, Ego, and
Superego
Sigmund Freud believes that an individual's personality had
three components: the id, the ego, and the superego.

1. The ID - according to Sigmund Freud the first of the key elements of personality to emerge
is known as the id. The id contains all of the unconscious, basic needs and primal urges.

2. The Ego - this is the part of the personality that must deal with the demands of reality. It
helps control the urges of the id and makes us behave in ways that are both realistic and
acceptable. Rather than engaging in behaviors that are designed to satisfy our desires and
needs, the Ego forces us to fulfill our needs in ways that are socially acceptable and
realistic. In addition to controlling the demands of the id, the ego also helps strike a
balance between our basic urges, our ideals, and reality. 

3. The Superego - is the final aspect of personality to emerge, and it contains our ideals and
values. The values and beliefs that our parents and society instill in us are the guiding force
of the superego and it strives to make us behave according to these morals.
