Therapeutic Approaches (Terapeutiske skoledannelser)
Psychodynamic therapy
Freud's dynamic theory of personality
drives and motives are in influencing each other (samspil)
ID, EGO, SUPEREGO
ID
subconscious/unconscious
EGO
preconscious + conscious
SUPEREGO
subconscious + preconscious (only a little conscious)
psychosexual stages
personality is developed through theses phases
oral stage
babies
the mouth - sucking, swallowing etc.
ID
anal stage
The anus - withholding or expelling faecses
overly tidy people fixated here
EGO
phallic stage
SUPEREGO
latent stage
littel or no sexual drive present
before puberty
genital stage
ID, EGO and SUPEREGO are well balanced
libido (mental energy) is used to solve the tasks/conflicts pertaining to each stage. As the troops advance, they are met by opposition or conflict. If they are highly successful in winning the battle (resolving the conflict), then most of the troops (libido) will be able to move on to the next battle (stage). But the greater the difficulty encountered at any particular point, the greater the need for troops to remain behind to fight and thus the fewer that will be able to go on to the next confrontation.
fixating on a stage - Fixation refers to the theoretical notion that a portion of the individual's libido has been permanently 'invested' in a particular stage of his development. It is assumed that some libido is permanently invested in each psychosexual stage and thus each person will behave in some ways that are characteristic of infancy, or early childhood.
frustration - needs in the stage have not been met
overindulgnece - Or possibly the person's needs may have been so well satisfied that he/she is reluctant to leave the psychological benefits of a particular stage in which there is overindulgence.
defense mechanisms
used to protect self from unpleasant thoughts and emotions, such as the anxiety that can be caused by having to balance ID vs. EGO and SUPEREGO (= balancing between control and drives (often of aggressive or sexual of nature?)
repression
unconscious drives motivate behavior
learning to balance between ID's needs (drives) and demands of the outside world and what is deemed ok/normal- finding ways to express drives in a socially acceptable way
drive theory
signalangst

psychoanalysis
central concepts
free association
