Theory
Sigmund Freud
“The ego is not master in its own house."
01. Most well known
psychologist

Who is
02.
His theory sparked the

Sigmund Freud? ideas in the brilliant minds


of other theorists

His theory is about the

03. unconscious and also


about sexual
development.
As a person grows, the personality is also
formed. Many psychologists present different
views about how personality develops.
Freud's Stages of Psychosexual
Development.
First Stage: Oral Stage
From birth to 18 months, the erogenous zone
is the mouth. Oral pleasure (sucking) dominates,
and either too much or too little can lead to oral
fixation. This may result in oral-receptive
behaviors or oral-aggressive ones. Individuals
may become overly dependent, gullible, or
aggressive and pessimistic.
Second Stage: Anal Stage
In the anal stage (18 months to 3 years), a child’s
pleasure centers on controlling bowel movements,
leading to toilet training challenges. Fixation here can
result in an anal-retentive (obsessive) or anal-
expulsive (messy) personality.
Third Stage: Phallic Stage
Freud's anal stage (18 months to 3 years) focuses
on bowel control. Fixation here can lead to either
perfectionism or messiness. The Oedipus and Electra
complexes describe children's unconscious sexual
attraction to the opposite-sex parent, resolved by
identifying with the same-sex parent. Fixation may
cause sexual identity issues.
Fourth Stage: Latency Stage
(Age 6 to puberty). It's during this stage that
sexual urges remain repressed. The children's focus
is the acquisition of physical and academic skills.
Boys usually relate more with boys and girls with
girls during this stage.
Fifth Stage: Genital Stage
Puberty onwards). The fifth stage of
psychosexual development begins at the start of
puberty when sexual urges are once again
awakened. In the earlier stages, adolescents focus
their sexual urges towards the opposite sex peers,
with the pleasure centered on the genitals.
Freud's personality theory consists of the:
1. Id, driven by immediate gratification.
2. Ego, which balances desires with reality.
3. Superego, which embodies moral values.
Freud's Topographical Model
Divides the mind into the unconscious, where most
emotions and impulses are hidden; the conscious,
where we store our current awareness; and the
subconscious, where accessible but not active
memories reside.
