From Freud\u2019s point of view, personality is determined by the first five or six years of life.

Freud called this concept in German as Trieb, which is translated as a driving force or <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/dictionary\/english\/impulse\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">impulse<\/a>. Instincts are a form of energy i.e. transformed physiological energy that connects the body\u2019s needs with the mind\u2019s wishes. The stimuli (hunger or thirst, for example) for instincts are internal.<\/div>\n\n\n\nIn an effort to explain the Personality Structure, Freud divided the mind into three Parts, namely the  conscious, preconscious and unconscious.\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_MIND_STRUCTURE\"><\/span><b><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 11pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/b><!--[endif]--><b><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 11pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\">MIND STRUCTURE<\/span><\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\">According to early researchers, human beings were viewed as rational beings that were controlled by the processes they were aware of. It was argued that the human mind was divided into conscious, preconscious and unconscious. Freud believed that the majority of what we experience in our lives, the underlying emotions, beliefs and impulses are not available to us at a conscious level. He believed that most of what drives people is buried in their unconscious. This theory has been likened to an iceberg where the vast majority is buried beneath the water surface as illustrated below. The water would represent everything that we are not aware of, have not yet experienced and have not been integrated into our personalities.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEjGZYi1FW4866vR-1PYLAqM_qJL4OCwx4_psywJBpgeWc38rojtAY1zsUXoNcSmvYbVNpOvuIqZ59zvC7jd6qNeAsGZRGYWZT2IqPekpdcAomqWLf05OWKHkr0UZnBAa0HTva4OYnfxsEoPGYquLcbTD2ZQJabse0CH5J7JedJJ7GzUN9tPmRG75_xj\/s365\/MIND%20STRUCTURE.png.gif?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEjGZYi1FW4866vR-1PYLAqM_qJL4OCwx4_psywJBpgeWc38rojtAY1zsUXoNcSmvYbVNpOvuIqZ59zvC7jd6qNeAsGZRGYWZT2IqPekpdcAomqWLf05OWKHkr0UZnBAa0HTva4OYnfxsEoPGYquLcbTD2ZQJabse0CH5J7JedJJ7GzUN9tPmRG75_xj\/w400-h361\/MIND%20STRUCTURE.png.gif?ssl=1\" alt=\"FREUD\u2019S PERSONALITY STRUCTURE - MIND STRUCTURE\" title=\"MIND STRUCTURE\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"THE_CONSCIOUS\"><\/span><b><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 11pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\">THE CONSCIOUS<\/span><\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\">This refers to all sensations and experiences of which a person is aware of at any given time which includes memories and intentional actions that each person identifies with. For instance, as you read these words, you will be conscious of the page and whatever is happening around you like people\u2019s movements, noise from distance and so on. Freud believed that the majority of what we experience, like emotions, beliefs and impulses are not available to us at conscious level.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\">The conscious makes up a very small part of who we are. In other words, at any given time, we are only aware of a very small part of what makes up our personality, most of what we are is buried and inaccessible. Therefore, he considered the conscious as a limited aspect of personality because only a small portion of the thoughts, sensations and <a href=\"https:\/\/kanyarwandamugisha.blogspot.com\/2022\/11\/the-concept-of-memory.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">memories<\/a> exists in the conscious awareness at any given time. In his iceberg example, the conscious would be merely the tip of the iceberg.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"THE_PRECONSCIOUS_OR_SUBCONSCIOUS\"><\/span><b><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 11pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\">THE PRECONSCIOUS OR SUBCONSCIOUS<\/span><\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\">The preconscious contains thoughts and feelings that a person is not currently aware of, but can easily be brought to consciousness. This is believed not to be in awareness at a particular time but it can be brought to reality at any given time if prompted. It includes information that is not at the moment being thought of but it can be easily remembered. For instance one mother\u2019s middle name, name of your best friend, telephone number and some childhood memories. You are not thinking about these things at the moment but they can easily be remembered when required. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"THE_UNCONSCIOUS\"><\/span><b><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 11pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\">THE UNCONSCIOUS<\/span><\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\">While we are fully aware of what is in the conscious mind, we have no idea of what information is stored in the unconscious. The term refers to mental processes which a person is not aware of. Such kind of material remains in the unconscious because making it conscious would produce too much anxiety. For example, forgotten traumatic memories like, one being raped and some denied wishes like wishing someone to die.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\">The unconscious is a larger invisible portion below the surface and its vast dark depths is believed to be a home of instincts which are a major driving power behind all behaviours. The unconscious contains all sorts of significant and disturbing material which we keep out of awareness because they are too threatening to acknowledge fully. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin;\">Furthermore, Freud\u2019s view was that human beings were influenced by the forces they were not consciously aware of. Through his theory Freud argues that an individual\u2019s personality is a collection of childhood experiences which can continue having an effect as person grows. For this reason, he divides the human personality into three main components being the <a href=\"https:\/\/kanyarwandamugisha.blogspot.com\/2022\/11\/3-basic-structures-of-personality.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Id, ego and superego<\/a> all developing at different stages of one\u2019s life. The three combine to make the complex behaviour of a human being.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In an effort to explain the Personality Structure, Freud divided
