Sigmund Feud: A Psychological Analysis

Superior Essays
Humanity 's outbursts of emotions are triggered by our inner most thoughts entrenched deep within our minds. How humanity controls or responses to our emotional outburst are solely dependent on how the individual perceives to conduct themselves. A young mother’s short temper towards her three year old son who was repeatedly demanding a pack of gum resulted in the mother’s response to lash at her son by forcefully raising her voice and grabbing her son’s arm intentionally dragging him from the candy shelf. Our society would perceive her actions as normal since we commonly associate mothers to lash out on their children and drag them away from whatever peaked their interests as their way of handling the situation. Unfortunately, we do not question …show more content…
Each of their psychological perspectives are definitely far from having similarities than their differences since human being 's will always perceive differently against one another, never truly, completely agreeing on one ideal. Consequently, each of them provoke a different understanding behind the underlying causes of a short temper represented in a mother 's short temper against her three year old son that resulted in her elevating her voice against him and deliberately grabbing her son, dragging him from the gum that peaked his interest. Sigmund Feud’s psychoanalytic perspective elaborately showcases humanity 's expression of a short temper as their inner most traumatic experiences from their unconscious unraveling into their visible conscious to trigger their short tempers. He concludes our most repressed past experiences in our minds are the underlying causes of our short tempers since we neglect how powerful our unconscious affects our behavioral responses on other human begins. However, Carl Rogers’s humanistic perspective is deliberately displayed in his psychological reasoning behind humanity 's behavioral issue of a short temper to be human beings voluntarily submit to their inner most emotions to comprise for their self concept. He knowingly chooses to believe in human beings allowing themselves to consciously appeasing their self concept that they use their internal emotions to relinquish them within their minds. Regardless, each of them contradict one another with one exhibiting our unconscious with our purposely forgotten experiences to trigger our behavioral issue, while the other defines our behavioral

    This shows that character’s reaction prevents bad stuff because… If their reaction is being controlled they could react differently to the way, someone else reacts to something like getting tackled “I’m sorry for tackling you” “nah it's okay”. In the Giver everyone basically says “I’m sorry” to the person, and that makes people feel good. Another reason is that without controlled emotions it would be like high school movie drama “ahh he didn’t even say sorry”. This shows that controlled character’s reactions restricts the freedom of the characters because…well first of all of their reactions are being controlled by the Elders to prevent hurt feelings or to create chaos in the community. Next the people don’t have anything to make actually…

    Human emotions and human nature are certainly forces to be reckoned with. When allowed to run awry or shine through, they can lead to less than desirable situations. For example, in the search for power, one may make rash decisions to obtain said power. A Midsummer Night’s Dream, written by William Shakespeare, focuses on a power struggle between two fairies, a mischievous servant, a group of star crossed lovers, and some disorderly rude mechanicals. Oberon, the fairy king, and his wife Titania get into a spat over who is to take possession over a small changeling child.…

    When wanting something from someone else, screaming and yelling at them in a hysterical manner will never be the answer. It is proven in the story, “Popular Mechanics” by Raymond Carver, when the mother is acting absurd towards the father. She wants the father to not lay a hand on the baby boy, in fear of having him stolen from her by the father. She wants him to take his things and leave, but while asking, she is screaming and cursing at the father. At first, he stays calm, but in the end he gets violent with the mother.…

    The Power of Pathos In the words of Vincent Van Goh, “Let’s not forget that the little emotions are the great captains of our lives and we obey them without realizing it” (Guillemets). Emotions guide people through life like a compass in a similar fashion to how a compass guides a sailor on his voyage. This emotional compass leads us in the path of an ultimately unknown yet assumed destination in life and we follow it blindly every day. In the good times and the bad, emotional experiences and relationships tend to be more memorable and important to people than those with less emotional connections.…

    This week’s reading made me introspect about my personal opinions and emotions during crucial conversations. Honestly, I was taken aback when Patterson Grenny, McMillan, and Switzler(2012) discussed we, ourselves are the reason to create emotions that upset us (frustration, anger, fear, and insult). Further, the authors discuss that once these emotions are created we either act on them or be acted on by them (p.104). Last week, I faced a not-so-pleasant situation with one of the certified nursing assistant(CNA) in my facility.…

    Emotion is an essential part of being human, it allows for us formulate opinions, interpret information create relationships and be a compassionate member of society. In 1984, there is great exploration into how the state exercises total control over its citizens and the dangers that follow having government power go unchecked and unquestioned. Orwell displays the importance of emotion in human independent functions, thoughts and decisions and how the manipulation and reduction of emotion reduces humans to dependents on hierarchy and takes away any individualism and depth. He displays the dangers of this process as the removal of emotion also caused the deterioration of important relationships, human ecology, language and affectionate notions…

    Why do people choose to fight, where others may decide to flee in a fight or flight scenario? Why do some express sadness and others show happiness in a time of pain? Psychology, which is the scientific study of behavior and mental processes, is research that helps to inform/prove why people act the way they do. There are many reasons to explain questions such as these, but there are seven distinct perspectives that help to demonstrate why. As seen in Laura A. King’s book “The Science of Psychology: An Appreciative View (4th edition)” there are seven contemporary approaches to psychology, that examine questions regarding human behavior.…

    Introduction This essay will compare and contrast two theorists who were considered to be the founding fathers of their area of psychology . Sigmund Freud who was the founder of psychoanalysis and Carl Rogers who founded the humanistic approach. Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) was a physician who specialized in neurology and eventually devoted his life to the treatment of mental disorders using a procedure he developed called psychoanalysis. Psychoanalysis states that all behaviour is driven from the unconscious mind and early childhood experiences, this approach brings up emotions from the hidden mind for analysis. (Carl Rogers (1902-1987) was a Humanistic psychologist.…

    Assignment 8: Skinner, Freud and Rogers To compare Skinner, Freud, and Rogers, is to compare three of the greats in the field of Psychology.

For someone with little psychological background, who is just beginning to delve into Freud’s theories, it might seem that his beliefs about human behavior are based in cognitive process like Carl Rogers’s humanistic beliefs.…
