Freud's theory of personality is called a tripartite model What does that mean?

Freud's tripartite model of personality consists of three parts: the id, ego, and superego. The id represents primal desires and instincts, the ego is responsible for rational decision-making, and the superego acts as the internalized moral compass. These three components work together to shape an individual's thoughts, behaviors, and personality.


Each part of the body that's a source of a child's fixation marks both an erogenous zone and what?

Each body part associated with a child's fixation marks both an erogenous zone and a stage of psychosexual development according to Freud's theory. These body parts represent different stages of pleasure-seeking that shape personality development. Fixation at a particular stage can lead to adult personality traits characteristic of that stage.


What is the disorder when the son is attached to his mother and considers his father his rival?

The Oedipus syndrome. Oedipus was the son of Laius and Jocasta. One day, they had an oracle, their newborn child was being destined to kill his father, marry his mother and bring great misfortunes upon the city of Thebes. They decided that a servant should kill their child. The servant instead of killing the child hung it up by its ankles to a tree in a remote place and left it there. A shepherd found the baby and carried him to the king of Corinth who adopted it. When the queen and her maidens gave a bath to it, they noticed the swollen ankles and called the baby Oedipus (swollen-footed).


Who first discovered the ecosystem?

Arthur TansleyHere is some further informationTansley's early publications focused on palaeobotany, especially fern evolution.[2] Tansley founded the botany journal New Phytologist in 1902 to serve as "a medium of easy communication and discussion between British botanists on all matters . . . including methods of teaching and research". It was named after the Phytologist, a botanical magazine published between 1842 and 1863.[11] In establishing this journal, Tansley's aim was to provide a venue for the publication of "notes and suggestions"; existing botanical journals only published records of completed research.[6] He remained editor of the journal until 1931.[11]Tansley's introduction to ecology came in 1898 when he read Warming's Plantesamfund (in its German translation, Lehrbuch der ökologischen Pflanzengeographie). Reading the book provoked him to "[go] out into the field to see how far one could match the plant communities Warming had described for Denmark in the English countryside". In 1903 he learned of the work done by the Smith brothers in mapping the vegetation of Scotland and Yorkshire. The work was initiated by Robert Smith and continued by his brother, William Gardner Smith (in conjunction with Charles Edward Moss) after Robert's death.[1] In 1904 Tansley suggested the formation of a central body for the systematic survey and mapping of the British Isles. This led to the establishment of the "Central Committee for the Survey and Study of British Vegetation" by Tansley, Moss, William Smith and T. W. Woodhead,[3] with the support of Marcel Hardy, F. J. Lewis, Lloyd Praeger and W. M. Rankin. These eight formed the original committee,[1] with Tansley as its leader.[3] F. W. Oliver later joined the group as its ninth member. The name of the group was later shortened to "The British Vegetation Committee". The aim of the group was to coordinate ongoing studies and standardise the methodology being used. The committee met twice more in 1905 and produced a six-page pamphlet, Suggestions for Beginning Survey Work on Vegetation.[1]In 1911 Tansely, in conjunction with the British Vegetation Committee, organised the first International Phytogeographic Excursion (IPE).[1] He was inspired by a plant geography tour of Switzerland organised by Swiss botanist Carl Schröterin 1908, which introduced him not only to vegetation types, but also to botanists from other countries. The connections made between Tansley and American ecologists Henry Chandler Cowles and Frederic Clements helped build a philosophical and methodological link between British and American plant ecology.[3] Other attendees included Schröter, Swedish botanist Carl Lindman, and German botanists Oscar Drudeand Paul Graebner. Tansley's book Types of British Vegetation was prepared with an eye to serving as a guide to the vegetation for the attendees of the first IPE.[1] The second IPE in 1913 was hosted by Cowles. This brought Tansley to America.[3]In 1913, the British Vegetation Committee organised the British Ecological Society (BES), the first-ever professional society of ecologists. Tansley served as its first president, and was first editor of the Journal of Ecology, a position he held for 21 years.[3] In 1915 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society, and in 1923 he was elected president of the Botanical Section of the British Association for the Advancement of Science. At the Imperial Botanical Congress in 1924 he was appointed chairman of the British Empire Vegetation Committee. He served as president of the BES a second time in 1938.[7]William S. Cooperconsidered Tansley's most influential publications synthesised individual studies into a whole.[3] In 1935 Tansley published "The use and abuse of vegetational terms and concepts"[12] in which he introduced the ecosystem concept.[fn 1][4] In the 1930s ecological thinking was dominated by the work of Clements, who thought of ecological communities as organisms, and associations as superorganisms.[4] Tansley devised the concept to draw attention to the importance of transfers of materials between organisms and their environment,[13] regarding ecosystems as the basic units of nature.[4]" Though the organisms may claim our prime interest, when we are trying to think fundamentally, we cannot separate them from their special environments, with which they form one physical system.[12] " Tansley's interest in teaching led to the production of the Elements of Plant Ecology in 1922, which was followed by Practical Plant Ecology in 1923 and Aims and methods in the study of vegetation in 1926, coauthored with Thomas Ford Chipp.[3] The last book, edited for the British Empire vegetation committee, was extremely influential not just in defining ecological methods but in highlighting the need for a complete inventory of the empire's "vegetational assets". With this information, it would be possible to efficiently manage the vast natural resources of the empire.[14] Tansley's most comprehensive work, The British Islands and Their Vegetation was published in 1939. In recognition of this achievement, he was awarded the Linnean Medal in 1941.[3]During the Second World War Tansley became committed to conservation, and this continued through post-war reconstruction. He chaired a committee of the BES that formulated a policy on nature reserves and led to the formation of the Nature Conservancy,[3] which he also chaired.[7] Tansley's conservation work was the basis cited for his knighthood in 1950.[3]Tansley was introduced to psychologyby a former student, Bernard Hart, who worked as a doctor in mental hospitals near London. While working for the Ministry of Munitions during the First World War, he had a dream which was described as "one of the major turning points in his life" - from this dream came Tansley's interest in Freud and psychoanalysis.[9] In 1920 he published The New Psychology and its Relation to Life, one of the first books that attempted to introduce the ideas of Freud and Carl Jung to a general audience. The book was a bestseller, selling 10,000 copies in the United Kingdom and 4,000 in the United States. In 1922 Tansley spent three months with Freud, and the following year he moved his family to Vienna for a year. Although he later returned to botanical pursuits, Tansley remained in contact with Freud and wrote his obituary.[9] Recent research by Peder Anker has suggested a close theoretical relationship between Tansley's ecology and his psychology.[15]


What part of brain controls waking up?

The psychologist Sigmund Freud writes that dreams come from the mind, not the brain. He says that dreams come from wishes that a part of the mind called the unconscious is wishing for. If these wishes came true, they would result in some kind of movement (a wish of food could be fulfilled by the movement of walking to the fridge, opening it, pulling out some food, and eating it). However, a censor between the unconscious and the preconscious (another part of the mind) won't let this wish result in movement. So the best that the wish can do is to show itself as being fulfilled. But the preconscious mind often has trouble with seeing this wish be fulfilled because it's an inappropriate wish (eg sexual wishes, wishes to be punished and hurt). So the preconscious mind distorts the dream, making it look bizaare and incomprehensible. If the unconsioucs wish is still too inappropriate, then the preconscious mind will cause you to wake up. To avoid this, the unsconscious tricks the preconscious by "adopting" a harmless wish to be fulfilled, which the preconscious will have no problem with. But this harmless wish is disguising the inappropriate wish, which can never be fully defeated. To summarize: The unconscious wish struggles to overcome resistance from the censor and the preconscious mind, and this struggle crafts the dream from its original wish-fulfillment.
