Psychological Analysis of Lord of the Flies

Sigmund Freud: Father of Psychiatry First Use of “The Couch” Felt That Infancy Shaped People Obsessed With Breast Feeding & Toilet Training

Each Person Carried Within Himself/Herself Three Basic Parts Of Personality

ID… Born with our “Id” Allows us to get our basic needs met (I.e. food) Based on the pleasure principle (if it feels good, do it) Doesn’t care about reality or the needs of others (baby cries in the middle of the night)

Let go of my “Ego” First five years of life Based on reality principle Realization that other people have needs, desires You can hurt by trying to fulfill impulses Ego must take care of id while taking reality into account

Superego Ages 5 and up Moral part of human beings Similar to conscience Develops due to moral and ethical restraints by caregivers Knows/Wants to do what is right

Healthy Person: Ego is the Strongest Is able to Satisfy id Not violate the superego Stay connected to the reality of the situation

Id TOO Strong Behavior based on self-gratification Impulses cannot be controlled

Superego Too Strong Person directed by rigid code of morals. Unbending and Judgmental

Kiersey: The Theory of Personality People are different. They want different things (opposed to Freud) We perceive difference as madness, badness, stupidity > and flaws. 1962- Myers & Briggs developed personality test: takes behaviors and attitudes and translates them into personality type. 4 basic types.
