Sigmund Freud And The Emergence Of Psychoanalysis
[ send me this paper ]
10 pages in length. When one hears the name Sigmund Freud, one makes an immediate association with the psychological discipline of psychoanalysis. The extent to which Freud shaped an entire industry based upon what at the time was considered a wholly outrageous assertion about human behavior is both grand and far-reaching; that his theories metamorphosed into the cornerstone of traditional psychological approach speaks to the accuracy with which Freud was able to uncover and address many of humanity's hidden problems.

Sigmund Freud: Repression Hypothesis
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. A majority of the themes and issues found in contemporary psychology treatments have their fundamental basis in Sigmund Freud's discoveries. The renowned psychoanalyst, who did not hold the most favorable reputation during his time, was a rich source of insights about sociological issues. His collection of work contained a number of themes that are still relevant in addressing many of today's psychological ills, including the concept of ego as an entity that cannot maintain control over itself; that individual and social psychology are one and the same; that organizations are the result of repressed desires and ambivalent memories of ancient events and that the ego and superego are responsible for housing cultural ideals. Freud's repression hypothesis has been shared by other philosophers who postulate that humanity is little more than a self-centered entity with minimal concern for anything but itself.

Sigmund Freud’ “Wolf-Man” Case and Repetition
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses one of Freud’s most famous or notorious case histories, that of the “Wolf-Man.” The case is categorized under the title of “From the History of an Infantile Neurosis.” It provides an essential insight to the development of Freud’s thought and it also captured the imagination of both those interested in psychoanalysis and the public at large. The subject, Sergei Pankejeff (1887-1979), a Russian aristocrat was distraught by his childhood dream of white wolves sitting staring at him from the bare branches of a tree outside his bedroom window in winter. This report considers the interpretations Freud made from that dream and how they fit into Freud’s already-established framework of thinking. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Sigmund Freud’s Analysis of Anxiety Attacks
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 4 page paper discussing how Freud would analyze anxiety attacks. Anxiety attacks, panic attacks and anxiety disorders in general have been studied in medicine and psychology for over a century. Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) considered the father of psychoanalysis believed that “anxiety neurosis” and anxiety attacks experienced by individuals resulted from individuals no longer being able to repress impulses which were in conflict or not satisfied during the childhood psychosexual developmental stages. Freud found that anxiety and panic attacks resembled greatly people’s reactions when they were confronted with danger except there would seem to be no danger present. Therefore, Freud would conclude, the danger must be internal and resulting from “failure of repression” in which an individual would be overwhelmed with panic or a phobia. Through psychoanalysis, Freud would attempt with the patient to discover the area of conflict from their past in which their needs were not nurtured or gratified or which had instilled a fear which they had repressed; a repression which could no longer be contained and resulting in anxiety attacks.

Sigmund Freud’s Psychosexual Stages of Development in Relation to Jean Piaget’s Cognitive Stages
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 7 page paper discussing Freud’s psychosexual stages of development as they correspond to Piaget’s cognitive stages. Sigmund Freud and Jean Piaget were developmental psychologists both influenced by the evolutionary concepts introduced by Charles Darwin in that an individual’s psychological, intellectual and emotional development occurs in evolutionary stages from birth into adulthood. Concepts and conflicts experienced within a developmental stage may in fact deter the progression into a further stage resulting in cognitive or psychological difficulties. While Freud’s psychological development stages (oral, anal, phallic, latency and genital) were based on the link between sexual and emotional development, Piaget’s cognitive stages (sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete and formal operations) were based more so on an individual’s mental understanding and the relationships with his or her environment. While the two theories may not appear to be similar in their basic developmental processes, there are certain components which may reinforce or coexist in both theories. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Sigmund Freud’s Views on Love
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page discussion of Freud’s views of the emotion we call love. Freud viewed this emotion as just one more manifestation of the sexual drive with which we are born.
