“Who am I?”
This assignment involves a “self-analysis” of your personality* as it relates to the material we covered in this section of the course (Chapters 10 & 11). In particular, how do the theories and research in this section of the course apply to your own* personality? Answer this question by addressing the following:
Using the Freudian approach to the unconscious we talked about, apply this approach to yourself. What evidence do you have (from your own personal experience) that supports (or is consistent with) the Freudian view of the unconscious? That is, describe instances where you have been (or may have been) influenced by unconscious factors and show how these are related (or unrelated) to the Freudian view of the unconscious we talked about. Here is the link to the earlier Exercises: The Freudian Unconscious. You might want to review these exercises.
In answering these questions, be sure to provide a description of your own personality and apply the theories and research to your “personality.” Your paper should be no shorter than 5 pages and no longer than 7 pages. It should be a Word document, typed and double-spaced.
