Psychodynamic Psychology How well do we know ourselves? –The unconscious mind How do our parents shape us? –Developmental influences What do our dreams mean? –Symbolism in behaviour & experience

Sigmund Freud We are animals, driven by basic biological motives The emergence of society required us to bring our animal impulses under control Psychology involves understanding how our instincts are channeled to produce civilised behaviour – and what can go wrong with this process.

The Psyche (Personality) Id: Instincts Superego: Morality Ego: Reality

Healthy Psyche IdSuperego Ego OK Guys – I’m in charge. Anything you want has to go through me. OK.

Neurotic Id Superego Ego Listen up! I’m in charge, and you are not here to enjoy yourselves. Get ready for a double-size portion of anxiety with a side order of guilt! No fun. >whimper<

Psychotic Id SuperegoEgo Sex! Food! Drink! Drugs! NOW! Who turned out the lights?

Psychopathic OK. First, gimme food. Then I want sex – lots of it and I don’t particularly care whether it’s with a willing partner. Then I want to hurt people. Badly. Probably be hungry again after that so… OK then. Let’s go.

The Unconscious The conscious. The small amount of mental activity we know about. The preconscious. Things we could be aware of if we wanted or tried. The unconscious. Things we are unaware of and can not become aware of. Thoughts Perceptions Memories Stored knowledge Fears Unacceptable sexual desires Violent motives Irrational wishes Immoral urges Selfish needs Shameful experiences Traumatic experiences Bad Worse Really Bad

Motives Latent motives – the unconscious forces that drive our behaviour Manifest motives – the lies we tell ourselves to protect us from the truth
