4Lack of integration of opposites.
5.Avoidance of important (developmental) tasks.
6.The degree of pathology is “defined” “…to the degree of consciousness a person has of the conflict and the amount of power exerted by the underlying complex. The level of dissociation between conscious and unconscious content reflects the intensity of the disturbance and the amount of pathology.”.
