    Keith E. Stanovich, the author of “How to Think Straight About Psychology,” explains different aspects of psychology to his readers in the first chapter of his book. He starts off by stating how Sigmund Freud is a fraud when it comes to psychology. Although Freud’s work in psychology is so little, he is the reason why many people misunderstand psychology. Then the chapter begins to talk about how psychology is composed of different topics and studies, and when there are many different topics it is difficult to link all of the topics into one. When psychology is often discussed, many people do not consider it a science.…

    In the 1900s, personality theorists–in particular, Freud, Jung, Adler, Erikson, Allport, Cattell & Eysenk, Skinner, Bandura and Mischel, Rogers and Maslow, and May–did research and experimentation to understand human personality and made some insightful discoveries that give different lenses, or perspectives, through which people can understand themselves and their behavior. This paper identifies a specific personal characteristic (i.e., a behavior or mental process) of mine that I believe sets me apart from the majority of other people and then, through the viewpoint of each theorist mentioned above, explains how I acquired or maintained it. The special behavior is my tendency to get restless (antsy, hyper) and unable to relax for very…

Later he terms the region where instincts lie the id and the region that resists or controls them the ego.…

    The human figure in their works strives to capture raw, unpleasant features of the body. Wagschal puts a strong emphasizes on depicting the wrinkles, aged, and tired characteristics of her models as seen in one of her most notable works “Portariat of Judy Garfin” (1982). In this piece, she emphasizes the not so flattering features of her elderly model, a very different approach from idealized depictions found in traditional portraits. The Greek or Renaissance ideas of beauty and perfection are not an interest in her works; instead she uses the human figures to explore the complexities of human psychology. For Wagschal and Freud, the human figure is never idealized or romanticized.…

    Sigmund Freud and Gotthold Ephraim Lessing both developed their own ideas of emotion within their writings over art and the subject of the pregnant moment. For each philosopher, emotion was more than an abstract experience that people go through, but rather a phenomenon to be understood. Freud writes on this in his collection Writings on Art and Literature, where he analyzes Michelangelo’s Moses. Lessing’s writes on emotion in his writing Laocoon focuses on the statue of Laocoon. When defining beauty, Freud brings up emotion in the way it relates to the appearance of repressed feelings such as erotic instincts and impulses within the individual.…

    Trait theorists focus on the measurement of traits and believe that to better understand personality we should focus on an individual’s traits and characteristic behaviour(Saul Kassin,; 2003). Using the five-factor model of personality, trait theorists can develop different kinds of questionnaires, such as the NEO Personality Inventory, to measure a person’s personality traits (Costa, P.T. Jr. and McCrae, R.R, 1992). With this data, researchers can describe a person’s personality using the 5 global factors of the five-factor model. The five-factor model helps trait theorists identify characteristics that individuals possess and to the extent of which they are present (Matthews, Gerald; Deary, Ian J.; Whiteman, Martha C, 2003). Freuds psychodynamic…

    In his essay “The Uncanny”, Sigmund Freud attempts to explain the concept of “the uncanny” by using two methods: defining the word through language and analyzing individual experiences. In order to support his claims and illustrate the notion of “the uncanny”, he uses E.T.A. Hoffman’s story “The Sandman”. Despite the fact that this text is intriguing and at first sight appealing, Freud fails to convince his readers that he has discovered the true meaning of “the uncanny” because he struggles with defining the notion. Furthermore, his arguments have no sound evidence and he selectively chooses only that information from “The Sandman” which contributes to his ideas. Freud defines “the uncanny” as something that has been repressed and then comes back to memory.…
