Presentation transcript:

DEFENSE MECHANISMS

PROJECTION  Putting your own faults onto another person  At work you do not complete your work. When you get fired, you blame your boss, saying he/she didn’t take the time to explain the task.

REACTION FORMATION  Behaving in a way that is exactly the opposite of one’s own true feelings  You feel guilty for bullying a kid at school. You cover up your feelings by bragging to friends about your actions.

REGRESSION  A reversion to immature patterns of behavior  Returning to immature behaviors to express emotions  An adult has a temper tantrum when he doesn't get his way  You are angry at your brother for reading your diary. You scream at him and your parents, run into your room, and sulk

RATIONALIZATION  Making excuses for actions or feelings; Creating false but plausible excuses to justify unacceptable behavior  A student watches TV instead of studying, saying that “additional studying wouldn’t do any good anyway”  You work at a convenience store. When no one is watching, you take some magazines. You figure it’s a large store and they can afford it.

COMPENSATION  Making up for weaknesses in one area by excelling in another area  You are failing two classes in school. You compensate by becoming the lead saxophone player in the school band.

DENIAL  Refusing to recognize an emotion or problem  Your parents are getting divorced, but you act as though nothing is wrong. When friends express their concern, you laugh and tell them it does not bother you.
