Was Sigmund Freud a brain specialist?

Answer 1

Not really. Freud spanned a couple different areas and perspectives of psychology, but he's best placed as an advocate for the psychodynamic perspective, which analyzes how behaviors spring from the unconscious.

Answer 2

No, Sigmund Freud was not a brain specialist. He was an Austrian neurologist who founded the psychoanalytic school of psychology. Freud's work focused on the study of the mind and the unconscious, rather than the physical structure of the brain.
