    Study Notes

    Sigmund Freud's Psychoanalytic Theory

    • Deterministic view of human nature: Human behavior is driven by the unconscious, focusing on gaining pleasure and avoiding pain.
    • Human as an energy system: Freud saw humans as motivated by energy, primarily from the unconscious (id).
    • Levels of mental life:
      • Unconscious: Feelings, urges, and instincts below conscious awareness influencing actions.
      • Preconscious: Memories and stored knowledge, not currently in awareness but accessible.
      • Conscious: Awareness of immediate mental processes.

    Structure of Personality

    • Id: Present at birth, operates on the pleasure principle (seeking pleasure and avoiding pain), driven by basic sexual and aggressive urges.
    • Ego: Develops rationally, operates on the reality principle, resolving conflict between the id and the external world.
    • Superego: Partially unconscious, guides behavior based on moral principles (right vs. wrong), developed through internalization of societal values.

    Psychosexual Stages

    • Fixation: Failure to resolve a stage's needs can leave individuals entrenched in that stage's behaviours.
    • Oral Stage (Birth-18 months): Pleasure from oral activities. Fixation can cause problems with substance abuse and oversensitivity.
    • Anal Stage (18-3 years): Pleasure centers on bowel and bladder control. Fixation results in obsessive neatness or messiness.
    • Phallic Stage (3-6 years): Focus on genital region and developing sexual awareness. Fixation linked with issues of self-importance and relationships.
    • Latency Stage (6-11 years): Sexual impulses are dormant and repressed, interest shifts to play.
    • Genital Stage (12 onwards): Full sexual maturation and directed sexual relationships developed.

    Defense Mechanisms

    • Repression: Unacceptable or painful thoughts are pushed out of conscious awareness.
    • Denial: Refusal to acknowledge reality of a painful situation.
    • Regression: Reverting to an earlier, less mature stage of behavior.
    • Reaction Formation: Behaving in a way opposite of true feelings.
    • Projection: Attributing own unacceptable urges onto others.
    • Displacement: Redirecting emotions at a less threatening target.

    Jean Piaget's Cognitive Development

    • Sensorimotor Stage (Birth-2 years): Infants develop through senses and actions. Key is object permanence (understanding that objects still exist even when out of sight).
    • Preoperational Stage (2-7 years): Children display symbolic thought, egocentrism, and lack conservation.
    • Concrete Operational Stage (7-11 years): Logical thinking begins, understanding of conservation (quantity remains unchanged).
    • Formal Operational Stage (11+ years): Abstract and theoretical thinking develops.

    Erik Erikson's Psychosocial Stages

    • Stages occur across the lifespan and involve social interactions, each one marked by an "ego crisis".
    • Trust vs. Mistrust (0-1 years): Developing trust in caregivers.
    • Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt (1-3 years): Developing independence.
    • Initiative vs. Guilt (3-6 years): Embarking on activities and goals.
    • Industry vs. Inferiority(6-12 years): Mastering social and academic skills.
    • Identity vs. Role Confusion (12-18 years): Testing roles and developing a sense of self.
    • Intimacy vs. Isolation (19-40 years): Forming intimate relationships.
    • Generativity vs. Stagnation (40-65 years): Contributing to future generations and experiencing a sense of purpose.
    • Integrity vs. Despair (65+ years): Reflecting on one's life and accepting its implications.

    Lawrence Kohlberg's Moral Development Theory

    • Preconventional Morality (Stages 1-2): Based on punishment and rewards.
    • Conventional Morality (Stages 3-4): Based on conformity to social rules.
    • Postconventional Morality (Stages 5-6): Based on universal ethical principles.
