Flashcards do conjunto (13)
- 1Personality component that works to satisfy basic urges, needs and desires?Id
- 2Personality component that mediates the demands of the 'Id' and 'Superego'?Ego
- 3Personality component that is composed of our internalized ideals... tries to suppress the 'Id' and make the 'Ego' behave morally?Superego
- 4How can having 'cold' and 'uncaring' parents cause schizophrenia?The ego deploys defense mechanisms, resulting in a weak ego that 'shatters' under the strain... leaving the Id in control
- 5What defense mechanism will the ego deploy to protect a person from emotional trauma?Regression to an earlier stage of development... in the case of schizophrenia the 'oral stage'
- 6How will 'regression' to the 'oral stage' of development cause schizophrenia?An individual will become so focused on themselves they lose touch with reality and become unable to distinguish between their actual needs and fanatsies
- 7In the psychodynamic approach, what does 'EE' stand for?Expressed emotion -
referring to emotional tension
- 8The Family System Theory: Fromm-Reichman (1948)Schizophrenia is caused by families with a high 'EE', or 'schizophrenic' families with high emotional tension, secrets, conflict ETC...
- 9Research into the Family system theory: Brown et al (1966)Found that 10% of schizophrenia suffers returning to 'low EE' homes relapsed... while 58% of those returning to 'high EE' homes relapsed
- 10Research into the psychodynamic approach: Waring and Ricks (1995)Mothers of schizophrenia suffers tend to be anxious, shy and withdrawn... rather than cold and uncaring
- 11Evaluative Point - Biological TherapiesThe success of biological therapies (e.g. DRUGS) suggests that the Freudian approach may not be adequate
- 12Evaluation Point - FalsifiabilityVery little of psychodynamic perspective cannot be proven or disproven... as such it lacks empirical evidence :(
- 13Evaluation Point - The Family?Research has shown that schizophrenics can still relapse even when kept away from their families. So is the family the real trigger for schizophrenia?
