Course content

1 section7 lectures34m total length
  • Introduction to Psychoanalysis!2:59

    Freud shifts from physiology to the whole-person study, including symptoms, childhood causes, thoughts, wishes, and dreams, giving rise to psychoanalysis and frames modern views on personality.

  • Our scary, uncivilized nature!5:52

    Freud portrays human nature as driven by two instincts, sexual and aggressive, and by libido, seeking pleasure via drive reduction, while intrapsychic conflict and unconscious causes shape personality.

  • Understanding personality!8:50

    Explore Freud's structural model of personality—id, ego, and superego—and how the ego balances pleasure, reality, anxiety, and internalized standards.

  • Different ways of protecting ourselves4:49

    Explore how the ego uses defense mechanisms to cope with anxiety from the id and superego. Learn about repression, displacement, projection, and regression and their roles in dreams and behavior.

  • How do we develop in Freudian terms?7:39

    Freud presents personality development as a sequence of psychosexual stages—oral, anal, phallic, latency, genital—where libido and fixations, including the Oedipus complex and castration anxiety, shape behavior.

  • Psychopathology and critiques!2:55
  • Case of Klaus1:09

    Work on the case of Klaus, and use what you just learned!
