Ideas from the Psychodynamic approach Association
•Respond to a word with the first thing that comes into your mind
•Freud believed that by exploring the links that our mind makes without us consciously aware of them, we can obtain glimpses of the contents of the unconscious

Freud
• Born Austria- 1856, died in London 1939
• pathological medicine and neurology
• Hysteria- that physical symptoms could be induced just by the mind
• Hypnotising patients and talking to them neutralised these ideas
• free association and talking therapy
![Page 9: Perspectives in Psychology The Psychodynamic Approach](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56649eb55503460f94bbea9a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Talking therapy
• Instead of the doctor talking and patient listening
• Now it’s the patient talking and the doctor listening
• This theory orginates from the study of Anna -O

Basis of research
• Noticed a high rate of sexual abuse in his patients
• Concluded most psychological problems arose out of childhood sexual abuse and trauma- the seduction theory
• But because the stories came up so much-= Freud decided they were not true!
• phantasies of the mind- representing wishes of the mind- led to his major theories
![Page 11: Perspectives in Psychology The Psychodynamic Approach](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56649eb55503460f94bbea9a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What is good about this theory
• He was modern for his times
• Acknowledged the role of childhood events having an impact on the mind
• Ideas of unconscious motives
![Page 12: Perspectives in Psychology The Psychodynamic Approach](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56649eb55503460f94bbea9a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Psychodynamics
• The ‘dynamics’ or forces that drive us
• He challenged the bio psychological approach- mental illness was actually psychological not biological

Assumption 1
• Human behaviour is influenced by three parts of the mind

Core of the personality
• Dwells in the unconscious part • So our personality consists of these three
areas which creates complex human behaviours
• Ego strength- ability to effectively manage the anxiety created between these forces!
• Develops through interaction of our innate drives-(may be born with strong Id, ego or superego) and life experience

PsychopathicOK. 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 mind
• Relates to pleasure seeking and removing anxiety
• Cannot be accessed directly- but through our behaviour and dreams
• Relates to our ego defence mechanisms
• Conflicts lead to anxiety
• Ego protects itself through defences
• If over used can be the cause of disturbed behaviour!
