Psychodynamic Theory | Psychology | Chegg Tutors

In psychology, a psychodynamic theory is a view that explains personality in terms of conscious and unconscious forces, such as unconscious desires and beliefs. In the early 20th century, Sigmund Freud proposed a psychodynamic theory according to which personality consists of the id (responsible for instincts and pleasure-seeking), the superego (which attempts to obey the rules of parents and society), and the ego (which mediates between them according to the demands of reality). Psychodynamic theories commonly hold that childhood experiences shape personality. Such theories are associated with psychoanalysis, a type of therapy that attempts to reveal unconscious thoughts and desires. Not all psychologists accept psychodynamic theories, and critics claim the theories lack supporting scientific data. Other theories of personality include behavioral and humanist theories.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
While I am most definitely still a student, I've had a lot of experiences that I'd love to use to help anyone who needs it. In the past, I've best helped students with writing, editing, and brainstorming their essays, solving math problems, and studying for their various standardized tests. I'm patient, and eager to help, but I won't hand you a result :). Rather, I'll work with you, because I think the process of reaching an answer is super important, and it'll help you know what to do in the future when the same problem arises.

EXTRACURRICULAR INTERESTS
I'm an enthusiastic creative student, who writes music and poetry as often as inspiration creeps by. I study hard, and recently, the library has become my second home. I'm majoring in Psychology with a minor in Behavioral Neuroscience. I'm about to start working as a laboratory assistant in one of the research labs on campus, finding conclusions to questions my professors choose to ask. I'm so excited to learn more every semester, and truly grasp what it means to have a profession where stranger's disasters are put in your hands to "fix"
