Freud: Psychoanalysis
- Describe how Freud’s three levels of mental life relate to his concept of the provinces of the mind.
Answer:
- Freud developed his concept of the unconscious, preconscious, and conscious several years before he formulated the notion of the id, ego, and superego.
- The unconscious is a dynamic aspect of mental life responsible for many of our behaviors. It consists of both repressed experiences and experiences that have never been conscious. Childhood sexual and aggressive experiences are most likely to be repressed and thus enter into the unconscious in a disguised form.
- The preconscious consists of experiences that are less threatening than those of the unconscious. Preconscious ideas can become conscious with varying degrees of difficulty, depending on their potential threat to the ego.
- The conscious mind plays a relatively minor role in Freudian psychology. It refers to those ideas that are in our awareness at any given time.
- The id is the amoral, animal side of human nature and is completely unconscious. The id serves the pleasure principle.
- The ego is the sense of “I” or “me” that children develop at an early age. The ego, which can be unconscious, preconscious, or conscious, serves the reality principle.
- The superego comes into existence after the resolution of the Oedipus complex, and serves both the moral and the idealistic principles. The superego, like the id, is completely unconscious, meaning that its moralistic and idealistic demands are incessant and out of contact with reality.

- Trace the development of both the male and the female phallic stages and explain why Freud believed that they follow different paths.
Answer:
- Freud believed that the male and the female phallic stages take different routes because male and female anatomies are different.
- The male phallic stage begins with the little boy’s sexual desire for his mother and hostility for his father—a condition called the male Oedipus complex. Fearing his father’s retribution, the boy develops a castration complex, which takes the form of castration anxiety, or a fear of losing his penis. Because castration anxiety is extremely traumatic, the little boy quickly resolves this dilemma by giving up his incestuous feelings for his mother and identifying with his father. His identification with his father leads to him developing a strong male superego—one based on his perception of his father’s morals and ideals.
- The female phallic stage begins with the castration complex, which, for little girls, takes the form of penis envy. Holding her mother responsible for her lack of a penis, the girl turns to her father for sexual love and generates hostility for her mother. This condition, called the female Oedipus complex, is more difficult to resolve than the male Oedipus complex because the girl has no traumatic experience (such as castration anxiety) to shatter it. Gradually, the girl sees the futility of her position and turns to her mother for nonsexual love. The girl’s identification with her mother leads to the development of the female superego—a superego based on her perception of her mother’s morals and ideals.

- How does Freud’s early therapeutic technique relate to recent reports of childhood abuse?
Answer:
- Some observers have criticized Freud for abandoning the seduction theory, which placed responsibility for childhood sexual abuse on a parent, usually the father. When Freud substituted the Oedipus complex for the seduction theory, he switched responsibility from the parent to the child.
- Freud’s early therapeutic technique was quite active, forceful, and suggestive. He placed his hands on his patients’ heads and told them that they would think of something. This procedure usually led to precisely the result that Freud was looking for, namely, the confession of a childhood seduction.
- Freud’s highly suggestive technique tended to yield stories of childhood seduction that had been repressed for years. Many current therapists, using somewhat different but equally suggestive procedures, have been able to “recover” patients’ long-lost experiences of being sexually or physically abused by an older person, often a parent.

Chapter 04
Jung: Analytical Psychology
- Describe Carl Jung’s levels of the psyche.
Answer:
- Carl Jung divided the psyche into two levels: the conscious and the unconscious. The unconscious, in turn, is divided into the personal unconscious and the collective unconscious.
- The conscious psyche plays a relatively minor role in analytical psychology. When people rely too heavily on the conscious, to the exclusion of the unconscious, they become shallow and unbalanced. The ego is the center of consciousness.
- The personal unconscious in Jungian theory is comparable to the unconscious in Freudian theory. It is a storehouse for repressed memories. The contents of the personal unconscious are called complexes, or emotionally tinged ideas that spring from personal experiences.
- Carl Jung’s most distinctive and controversial concept is that of a collective unconscious. The collective unconscious is the psychological counterpart to an instinct. It stems from the repeated experiences of our ancestors and is passed from one generation to the next as psychic potential. The collective unconscious does not consist of inherited ideas, but of inherited predispositions to act. Before people react to these inherited predispositions, however, they must have a personal experience that sparks the collective unconscious. The contents of the collective unconscious are called archetypes.
Page: 110–112
Accessibility: Keyboard Navigation
- List and briefly describe Carl Jung’s most important archetypes.
Answer:
- The persona is the side of personality that we show to the outside world. It is the role we adopt in society.
- The shadow is the archetype of darkness and repression and represents the evil side of our personality. Rather than hiding their shadow, self-realized people become acquainted with it and thus learn to control their dark side. Carl Jung believed that the realization of the shadow is our first test of courage on the road to self-realization.
- The anima is the feminine side of men. Psychologically healthy men recognize their feminine disposition, become comfortable with it, and do not project it onto the women in their lives. The anima influences the feeling side in men.
- The animus is a woman’s masculine side, and it influences her thinking and reasoning. Carl Jung believed that the animus is also responsible for some women’s irrational moods and unfounded opinions.
- The great mother is the archetype of both nourishment and destruction. It represents our ancestors’ collective experiences with a mother who was capable of either nurturing or destroying them. Today, gardens, plowed fields, a grandmother, Mother Nature, or a witch symbolizes the great mother archetype.
- The wise old man is the archetype of wisdom and meaning, but his wisdom and meaning is superficial and deceptive. A father, grandfather, teacher, rabbi, or priest symbolizes the wise old man archetype.
- The hero archetype is represented as a powerful man, and it is represented sometimes as part god. However, the hero has a tragic flaw, or weakness. Without such a weakness, no one could be heroic; that is, one must be vulnerable to be a hero. In legends and fairy tales, a strong person who conquers a villain using great personal courage represents the hero archetype. The hero is also symbolic of ancient humanity conquering darkness and achieving consciousness.
- The self is an all-inclusive archetype that includes all aspects of personality, both conscious and unconscious. The self is manifested by our quest for perfection, completion, and self-realization. It is symbolized by the mandala, or a perfect geometric figure.

- Discuss Carl Jung’s notion of extraversion and introversion.
Answer:
- Carl Jung’s ideas of extraversion and introversion are not the same as most people’s views of extraversion and introversion. To Carl Jung, an extravert is not necessarily someone who is socially outgoing; rather, it is someone who looks at things objectively—in much the same way that others look at them.
- An introvert, in Carl Jung’s psychology, is someone who takes a personalized or individualistic view of the world. An introvert is in tune with his or her subjective world, including dreams, unique opinions, biases, and fantasies. Introverts have a minority view of things and look to their own standards rather than socially popular standards.
- Besides the levels of the psyche and the dynamics of personality, Jung recognized various psychological types that grow out of a union of two basic attitudes—introversion and extraversion—and four separate functions—thinking, feeling, sensing, and intuiting.
