Document Summary

Personality- individuals" unique and relatively stable patterns of behaviour, thoughts, and feelings. Personality theories attempt to describe and/or explain ways in which people differ in their general style of behaviour (usually focus on one, not both) Personality is shaped by the way people channel their unconscious motivations. Freud"s model of the mind- unconscious motivation that drives our behaviour, innate desire to please ourselves. Divisions of the mind: id: pleasure principle (devil, wants what it wants, sexual and aggressive urges) ego: reality principle (balance between devil/angel and reality, struggle) superego: conscience (parenting/socializing, angel) Regression- most basic way the ego deals with sexual urges (ends up coming out in other ways) Rationalization- the way we deal with things that bother us (ate cake, was about to go bad) Intellectualization- cant deal with it, so you deny pain, take emotion from the event to a dry/intellectual thought about it (long distance relationship)
