...compromises a person’s basic sexual and aggressive impulses and it contains the libido and stimulates a person to gain pleasure immediately. Next, the Ego is the thinking element of the personality, located in the conscience, preconscious and unconscious mind. Lastly, the Superego is the part of personality that is the moral judge. The Ego is responsible for keeping the three components of personality in equilibrium. Freud’s patients had memories of sexual feelings which he saw as important to personality development. Based on his patients’ childhood memories, Freud proposed a series of psychosexual stages. The psychosexual stages of personality development through which humans move in a static order determined by maturation are: oral stage, anal stage, phallic stage, latency and, and the genital stage. (Newman & Newman, 2011) The first stage of psychosexual development is the Oral Stage and it occurs during the first year of life. The infant's mouth is the only focus of libidinal gratification derived from the pleasure of feeding from their mother's breast. The infant also gains...

...Hierarchy of Needs: According to Abraham Maslow, humans have certain needs that must be fulfilled for healthy living. These needs motivate us to act the way we do, and in particular, in ways that satisfy the needs that are not yet fulfilled. In addition, Maslow suggested that these needs are not all equally important, but exist in a hierarchy (shaped like a pyramid), with the most important, basic needs at the bottom. The Hierarchy of needs is often presented as a pyramid. Forming the base are the Physiological Needs that are essential for survival. This includes the need for oxygen, water, and food. It is only when these lower-level needs are met to some degree that one can move up to fulfill other needs. The second level is composed of Safety and Security needs, which includes finding stability and an environment where one is safe from harm. This might mean finding a stable job, having a house in a safe neighborhood, or having some money in the bank. The third level refers to Love and Belonging Needs. This might mean having a partner or spouse, friends, family, a church group, or other support network. The fourth level is composed of Esteem Needs, which may include the need for recognition, respect, dignity, confidence, and a sense of achievement. This might mean finishing a college degree, passing the bar exams, or getting ahead in one's career. The fifth and highest level of needs is the need for Self-Actualization - the continuous need to fulfill one's potential and be...

...For this project you will assume the role of a portfolio manager. As part of your new assignment, you have seven stocks under management. Your task is to determine how your seven stocks are performing in your portfolio. Your first set of analysis will focus on the assumption that there are no short sale constraints on your holdings and one smaller set of analysis that will focus on the effect of a short sale constraint on your performance. Portfolio Theory Analysis 1. Perform a portfolio analysis for your seven firms that comprise your portfolio using the spreadsheet I presented in class as a template. Please keep to my template because I find it easier to read after you hand it in when the format is just as I have specified (using a spreadsheet that is worse or different than what I did in class is not a good idea). Some notes/hints/reminders on the spreadsheet and on this valuation assignment: * First off, be sure to reproduce my results in my spreadsheet before you begin the analysis on your portfolio. I have separate tabs for the separate analysis that I have performed so you should be able to reproduce my results before your forge ahead with your analysis. Make sure that you order your data from the most recent date to the last date using as much data as I have on my spreadsheet. Failure to do so will result in a very poor grade. * You will need to be able to manipulate SOLVER for this analysis, but given your experience in your summer corporate class...

...“Starbucks Coffee Company: the Indian Dilemma” Ateneo De Zamboanga University School of Management and Accountancy CASE ANALYSIS “Starbucks Coffee Company: The Indian Dilemma” Prepared by: Barbaso, Jan Paulo E. Bejerano, Hyacinth Vienne A. Deogracias, Scepter Jr. O. March 14, 2014 Background of the Case With a rich history, in 1994, Starbucks Coffee Company was formed and Howard Schultz became its President. Since then the company was the number one coffee retailer and continuously expands its business globally. It pursued international expansion with three objectives in mind: to prevent competitors from getting a head start, to build upon the growing desire for Western brands, and to take advantage of higher coffee consumption rates in different countries. And so seeing that the Asian market is in its developmental stage, it took this opportunity to be a leader in a new industry and so it concentrated its expansion efforts mainly in Asia starting with Japan and China. In 2002, Starbucks announced for the first time that it was planning to enter India. Later it postponed its entry as it had entered China recently and was facing problems in Japan. In 2003, there was news again that Starbucks was reviving its plans to enter India. In 2004, Starbucks officials visited India but according to sources they returned unconvinced as they could not agree on an appropriate partner for its entry. A statement coming from Starbucks said that “Without sounding arrogant...

...Psychoanalytic Personality Assessment Psychology of Personality The late Sigmund Freud implemented the theory of psychoanalytic. In Freud’s study he concluded that unconscious desires and childhood instances influences individual behaviors. Also, in his studies he concluded that these behaviors were caused by psychosexual stages. Today, his theories are still being used for current studies, however, other psychologist believe that his theories may have been flawed. Carl Jung concluded that the mind is separated into three components that consist of the collective unconscious, the conscious ego, and the personal unconscious. Alfred Adler used his illness to implement the psychoanalytic theories in which he provided greater detail in examples. The two characteristics that I agree with are structure of mind and reality principle. The structure of mind refers to ID, Ego, and Superego. All three components are suppose to work together in order for a person to have a well developed mind however, the ID and superego have a hard time working together. The ID is made of what a person needs. For an example, as an infant they become upset or uncomfortable and act off of instinct. They will cry out in discomfort. If kept in discomfort they will cry out louder to get the attention of someone so that a need is met. The Ego is a more advanced portion of the mind and it compromises. The Ego understands that not everything will go the way in which we want it to go so it works with...

...Lifespan perspectives ***** ******** Psy/375 June 25, 2012 ***** ******* Lifespan perspectives Although humans seem very different from one another, each human develops partly like everyone else, yet partly like no one else. Most of the time human’s attention is focused on one another’s unique qualities instead of realizing how similar humans really are. In fact, as humans, almost everyone has traveled some similar path. People such as, President Barack Obama, Joan of Arc, and Marilyn Monroe shared similar paths of life span development. Each one began to walk at approximately age one, began to talk sentences at about age four, as young children they played with toys while imagination worked wonders, and as young adults they would pack these toys up because they were no longer needed. As life goes on every human will experience almost the same developmental patterns from conception until death (Guest, 2011). Life-span perspective is the perspective that human development lasts all though out life. It views development as multicultural, multidirectional, multidisciplinary, plastic and contextual. In this perspective once a human hits their early 20’s, they have not completed development. In fact there are many developmental points in a human’s life after young adult hood that will last until death. This explains how human development is life-long (Guest, 2011). Multicultural can be defined as development that is affected by a person’s culture. Although...

...Life Span Perspective The life span perspective of development provides intriguing information about the development of individuals through their lifespan, such as who individuals are, how individuals came to be who they are, and who those individuals will become. Psychoanalytic theories offer insight into life span development and explain the stages of development that individuals proceed through in their lifespan. The life span perspective of development also provides important information in regard to how the effects of heredity, and the environment may interact to produce individual differences in life span development. Life Span Perspective of Development To study human development the life span perspective is necessary because it does not just take into account the development that occurs in childhood or adulthood but every phases of life (Berger, 2011). The life span perspective is a view of human development characterized by multicontextual, multicultural, multidisciplinary, multidirectional, and plastic characteristics Development is multicontextual, therefore the several contexts, such as economic constraints, family patterns, and historical conditions embed the lives of humans (Berger, 2011). Development is multicultural; therefore several cultures affect the development of individuals. Development is multidisciplinary; therefore psychology and other disciplines, such as biology, neuroscience, education, economics, anthropology, sociology, religion...

...Theory Paper For this theory paper I chose Freud’s psychosexual theory and theory of the mind. Sigmud Freud was an Australian physician. Freud examined patients with paralysis symptoms he researched and in the process he created his famous theory of psychoanalysis and child development. Which proposes that unconscious motivations influence personality development. According to Freud’s theory the mind has three basic components; the id, the ego, and the superego. The id, we are born with, it wants immediate satisfaction of needs, what it wants, it wants it right away. We inherit the sexual and aggressive instincts through evolution. Also, the id is almost completely unconscious. The ego, it’s between the id and the superego, develops from the id and makes sure that the desires are realistic and under control. The ego is in touch with reality and is governed by the reality principle, it is the conscious mind. The superego goes one step passed the ego, it considers not only the real but also the ideal. Thinks of how we should behave according to our society, uses ideas that come from our parents and out environment. It gives us the sense of right and wrong, it sometimes opposes the id and the ego works to bring them back together. The superego is also partially unconscious. These three are in never ending state of conflict. Like our textbook Child Development Principles and Perspectives gives us an example of when we are arguing with another person it says, “you might experience...

...This essay requires a basic fundamental understanding of Freudian theories and their contributions to psychological therapies. The theory of psychosexual development is contentious and the aims of this essay is explore what legacy Freud has given to modern therapy and whether it is at all helpful in the understanding of client presenting issues. Sigmund (Sigismund) Freud was born to a large Jewish Family on May 6th1856 in Pribor in The Czech Republic – formally Freiberg, Moravia, the family settled in Vienna where he studied medicine and practised as a neurologist. During work with Josef Breuer in 1892 and later with Jean Charcot in Paris he was taken by the ability to recall painful experiences under hypnosis. He founded that the mind was a complex energy system and that there is more to psychology than what is immediately available to the conscious mind, surmising that by gaining insight into unconscious thoughts and motivations, a client could be cured of his neurosis; at the time his ideas were seen as shocking, - and albeit controversial, are now accepted as commonplace, with modifications and variants, in therapy today. Freud was certainly not the originator of the concept of the unconscious; this was largely developed by the man Freud regarded as “the Great Fechner”, Gustav Fechner (1801-1887)- bestowing his work with prodigious enthusiasm, Freud declared that he had “followed that thinker on many important points” (Freud, 1925) Link S.

...inflammationPsychosexual stages of development are oral, anal, phallic, latency and genital. Every stage has its own time interval. Oral stage is since birth till 1 year, anal is 1-3 years, phallic is 3-6 years, latency is 6 till puberty and genital is puberty till death. Oral stage is divided to two Sexual infantilism: in pursuing and satisfying his or her libido (sexual drive), the child might experience failure (parental and societal disapproval) and thus might associate anxiety with the given erogenous zone. To avoid anxiety, the child becomes fixated, preoccupied with the psychologic themes related to the erogenous zone in question, which persist into adulthood, and underlie the personality and psychopathology of the man or woman, as neurosis, hysteria, personality disorders, et cetera. Stage | Age Range | Erogenous zone | Consequences of psychologic fixation | Oral | Birth–1 year | Mouth | Orally aggressive: chewing gum and the ends of pencils, etc.Orally Passive: smoking, eating, kissing, oral sexual practices[4]Oral stage fixation might result in a passive, gullible, immature, manipulative personality. | Anal | 1–3 years | Bowel and bladder elimination | Anal retentive: Obsessively organized, or excessively neatAnal expulsive: reckless, careless, defiant, disorganized, coprophiliac | Phallic | 3–6 years | Genitalia | Oedipus complex (in boys and girls); according to Sigmund Freud.Electra complex (in girls); according to Carl Jung. | Latency | 6–puberty...

...Development theories and their effect on Adult life Name Institution Introduction A lot of approaches have been taken so as to explain how we as human beings develop from children to adults. Many different scientists have over the years come up with certain theories within the psychological discipline to illustrate how the different stages of childhood shape a person’s adult nature. It has been proven that the environment of the various development levels of a child have a significant effect on how the child relates later as an adult, or rather the different character traits that are exhibited later in adulthood. Areas inclusive of biological, cognitive, emotion and social processes have been studied so as to come up with the different developmental processes. Two of some of the most noted developmental psychologists are Sigmund Freud and Urie Bronfenbrenner (Salkind, 2006).Sigmund Freud came up with the very controversial theory known as the Psychosexual Development Theory. He believed that there are five stages involved in the formation of someone’s personality. For one, there is the oral/dependency stage: This stage takes place in the first 18 months of an infant’s life. The child mainly uses their mouth in exploring the environment around them. Pleasure is derived from breastfeeding or feeding from a bottle and also suckling a pacifier. If too little...

...Psychoanalytic Personality Denisha Hernandez PSY/250 Mr. Previc The stages of Freud’s theory and personalities is the oral stage where the child wants that type of comfort by wanting their mother’s breast or bottle to sooth their selves from whatever type of distress they went through which would be considered as regression. I would agree with Freud that the oral stage is accurate. When I was young I would suck my thumb to make my problem go away. The anal stage would be the related with regression as well. The anal stage is potty training stage. Where accidents may occur and children or in some cases adult have this happen to them. The other stage is the phallic stage where you are aware of the male and female. Learning that a female have these body parts and that males have these body parts this is also compared to rationalization. The other stage would be latency which is the observable stage and that is related to repression. Be observant is a very skilled manner that has been brought on Freud’s theories. Without being observant things really would not make any sense and situations would just collapse to pieces. The last stage on Freud’s list is the genital stage where it is the peak of puberty and in sexual interest which is also part of the sublimation defense mechanisms having urges of sexual needs and knowing what are the sexual interest for the male and female. One of the defense mechanisms I can relate to is denial. In my early to late childhood I was in denial...

...required the id's impulses to be controlled and resolved by the ego. However if the impulses were not satisfactorily resolved then the lingering unconscious conflicts could lead to psychological problems in later life. In the Oral Stage (birth to 18 months) the child is focused on the mouth as a way of seeking pleasure because of its requirement for nursing. If the child's weaning is traumatic, in later life any unresolved conflicts may manifest as a preoccupation with oral activities such as smoking, drinking, eating or bite his or her nails or chew pencils and pens. The Anal Stage (18 months to three years) is a time in which pleasure is based on eliminating and retaining bowel movements and gaining control over them. In terms of conflicts during this stage, the end result can be an obsession with cleanliness, perfection, and control (anal retentive) or they may become messy and disorganized slobs (anal expulsive). During the Phallic Stage (ages three to six) the attention witches to the genitals as boys and girls learn that they are differences between the genders and become aware of the similarities and differences between them and their parents. Freud believed that during this stage boys develop unconscious sexual desires for their mothers and come to see their fathers as rivals for her attention and affection. He also believed that boys develop a fear that their father will punish them for these feelings, such as by castrating them. This group of feelings is known as...
