My presentation

My presentation will be related to psychoanalysis, theory founded by the Austrian neurologist Sigmund Freud in 1896, psychoanalysis is very important because the theory has influenced many other psychological schools that are not necessarily psychoanalytic.
There are many authors who have their own psychoanalytical theory but always based on Freud.
Freud contended that at the root of hysterical symptoms were repressed memories, almost always having direct or indirect sexual associations.

In 1896, Freud published his seduction theory which proposed that the preconditions for hysterical symptoms are sexual excitations in infancy.
The theory is based on the unconscious. The Unconscious contain unacceptable sexual wished that were repressed.Freud thought that because of societal restrictions, sexual wishes were repressed into an unconscious state and that the energy of this wishes could be turned into anxiety or physical symptoms.
 Freud realizes the psychic apparatus.The Id is sexual wishes, it includes everything that is inherited or present at birth, it is presented in pure form in our unconscious The Superego is the moral conscious, It refers to the capacity for self-evaluation, criticism and reproach. The Ego is the intermediary in the conflict between the Id and the Superego, It is a part of it modified its proximity to reality and comes to realistically meet the wishes and demands of it in accordance with outside world.

I hope you enjoy my presentation and know a little more of one of the most important theory of psychology

Regards!
