The Psychodynamic Perspective & The Self: Discussion

When many people think of psychology, the first thing that comes to mind is Sigmund Freud. Although some of his work has been debunked by research, personality psychologists today tend to agree that the unconscious plays a role in our decision making process. Using what you learned in this chapter please discuss the following:

1. What is the structural model of personality development? Describe this model in your own words in 2-3 sentences.

2, What are the three structures of the structural model?

3. Consider the following scenario: You are in high school and have just been asked to the prom by your crush. You are so excited to go and realize you don’t have anything to wear. When you go shopping later that day, you find the PERFECT outfit…except for the price. It is WAY out of your budget….but you really want the outfit! Explain how the id would handle the situation, the ego, and the superego.
