The unconscious...


The unconscious...

The unconscious, according to Freud,
Is individual, unknowingly employed.
His colleague, Jung, said,
It’s collective instead,
And Freud got rather annoyed.



Sigmund Freud (1856-1939)

  2. FREUDIAN THEORY UNSCIENTIFIC

    Freud’s theory is good at explaining but not at predicting behavior (which is one of the goals of science). For this reason Freud’s theory is unfalsifiable - it can neither be proved true or refuted. For example, the unconscious mind is difficult to test and measure objectively. Overall, Freud’s theory is highly unscientific.

    ...Fisher & Greenberg (1996) argue that Freud’s theory should be evaluated in terms of specific hypotheses rather than as a whole. They concluded that there is evidence to support Freud’s concepts of oral and anal personalities and some aspects of his ideas on depression and paranoia. They found little evidence of the Oedipal conflict and no support for Freud’s views on women’s sexuality and how their development differs from men’s.
