    Study Notes

    Freudian Psychoanalytic Theory

    • The stage of development divided into three substages—oral, anal, and phallic—is the Phallic stage.
    • The most basic defense mechanism initiated by the ego to protect against anxiety is repression.
    • During the Oedipal stage, a child desires the opposite-sex parent and feels jealousy towards the same-sex parent.
    • Dreams and Freudian slips are considered to be a way for unconscious thoughts and repressed desires to express themselves.
    • The formation of the superego is initiated by the resolution of the Oedipus complex, where the child identifies with the same-sex parent and internalizes moral values.

    Note: Oedipal stage is also known as Phallic stage.
