Part One: Theories at a Glance Table

- Identify the primary theoretical concept(s) of each theorist and provide a brief explanation of the perspective–theorist alignment you identified.
- Identify a theorist from the Theories at a Glance table, summarize their theory, and explain the aspects of that theory that relate to one of the three perspectives: biological, psychological, or social. Support your answer with a credible source.
- Select another theorist from the Theories at a Glance table and explain how their theory applies to your own learning development and lived experience.

Primary Concepts: Psychosexual development, conflicts, neuroses Explanation: Freud’s insights on unconscious processes is linked to the biological perspective. For example, different brain systems (i.e., hippocampus, amygdala, sensory cortex) impact memory, emotion, and sensation, all of which can influence our perception. In addition, Freud’s focus on conflicts and neuroses is linked to the psychological perspective. For example, unresolved trauma can manifest in phobias, compulsions, and unintentional expressions. |
