ESSAY ON: Freud & Rogers on "Hidden" Personality

Number of Pages 4

This research paper: A 4 pages research paper that discusses the personality theories of Sigmund Freud and Carl Rogers, relative to the part of personality that each theorist felt was "hidden," or suppressed. The writer argues that Freud sees human personality as a construct that is built atop basic instinctual behavior that has to be controlled, with personality resulting from compromises that are made between instinctual urges and social demands. Rogers feels that personality, that is, the "self," results from interactions between the person as an organism and the environment, with the individual motivated by a drive toward personal actualization. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
