Sigmond Freud’s Psychoanalytic Theory of Personality Development
Sigmond Freud’s Psychoanalytic Theory of Personality Development
Sigmond Freud’s Psychoanalytic Theory of Personality Development states that there are three parts to a person; ego, super ego, and ID. Within these three parts there are five stages; oral, anal, phallic, latency, and genital. Freud’s theory can be demonstrated through Norman Baits in the movie Psycho.
My first example of Freud’s theory as it related to Norman Bates is the ID. ID is based on pleasure principle, a person’s wants of instant gratification. Both sides of Norman Baits pleasure and wants were fully fulfilled. In the movie Psycho, Norman Baits has the want to keep the illusion of his mother a reality and sacrifices his other half to do so. On the other half, his mother’s half, she has the want to destroy the feelings created by persons upon Norman Baits. In the movie Psycho there’s a character named Marion Crane, in which Norman Baits becomes passionate for. The mother feeling delirious has the want to kill Crane, and succeeds.
According to Freud, we are born with our ID. The id is an important part of our personality because as newborns, it allows us to get our basic needs met. Freud believed that the id is based on our pleasure principle. In other words, the id wants whatever feels good at the time, with no consideration for the reality of the situation. When a child is hungry, the id wants food, and therefore the child cries. When the child needs to be changed, the id cries. When the child is uncomfortable, in pain, too hot, too cold, or just wants attention, the id speaks up until his or her needs are met. The id doesn't care about reality, about the needs of anyone else, only its own satisfaction. If you think about it, babies are not real considerate of their parents' wishes. They have no care for time, whether their parents are sleeping, relaxing, eating dinner, or bathing. When the id wants something, nothing else is important.
