Structural Theory
(Freud) - ANSWER: - the personality is composed of three structures: the id, ego, and

Developmental Theory
(Freud) - ANSWER: - emphasizes the sexual drives of the id and proposes that an

during psychosexual stages of development

Defense Mechanisms - ANSWER: - occur when the ego is unable to ward off danger

- these operate on an unconscious level and deny or distort reality
(danger or anxiety helps alert the ego to impending threats, such as conflict between

View of Psychopathology
(Freudian) - ANSWER: - maladaptive behavior results from an unconscious,
unresolved conflict that occurred during childhood
