A man becomes a leader in a crusade promoting sexual morality. A year later the man is arrested for a variety of sex crimes. Freud might have interpreted the man's earlier behavior as an example of Show
repression. denial. reaction formation. projection reaction formation A businesswoman is upset with her husband. She channels this anger into her work and increases her productivity dramatically. This is an example of sublimation. displacement. reaction formation. projection. sublimation A man is angry with his wife, but instead of confronting her, he takes out his anger on his children. This is an example of repression. sublimation. displacement. projection displacement The id uses reflexive action and wish fulfillment to reduce guilt. satisfy the reality principle. satisfy the ego and superego needs. reduce tension reduce tension. Freud used which principle to characterize the actions of the ego? pleasure principle reality principle hospitality principle morality principle reality principle According to Freud, "Freudian slips" are an example of free association. provide clues about unconscious associations. indicate that psychoanalysis is progressing because the crucial unconscious material is close to breaking into consciousness. occur almost exclusively during psychoanalysis provide clues about unconscious associations. A woman sets excessively high moral and ethical standards for herself. As a result, she constantly feels ashamed and guilty for making small mistakes and minor transgressions. Freud might say that her id has become too powerful. she has too much psychic energy fixated at the oral stage of development. her ego has become too powerful. her superego has become too powerful her superego has become too powerful. According to Freud, fixation results in adult personality characteristics related to the stage at which the fixation occurred. an increase in the amount of psychic energy available to the adult ego. either castration anxiety or penis envy, depending on the gender of the child. an increase in Freudian slips adult personality characteristics related to the stage at which the fixation occurred. In Freud's view of castration anxiety, what would be a healthy result for males? identification with the same-sex parent repression of sexual desires for opposite sex people strong moral anxiety a powerful superego identification with the same-sex parent According to Freud, which is an example of wish fulfillment? dreams hysteria reflexive action defense mechanisms dreams Little Timmy is extremely jealous whenever his mommy and daddy kiss and show affection. Timmy wants to get kisses from his mommy. Little Timmy is in which stage of psychosexual development? oral anal phallic genital phallic According to Freud, many accidents are caused by the death instinct. unconsciously motivated. a type of defense mechanism. repressed immediately. unconsciously motivated If you see your own unwanted thoughts and undesirable impulses in other people, then you are using the defense mechanism called displacement. reaction formation. intellectualization. projection projection According to Freud, to make sense of a patient's dream, a therapist needs to understand the dream's manifest content. dream's latent content. part of the dream recalled best by the dreamer. parts of the dream that recur in many different dreams. dream's latent content. In Freudian theory, "libido" is an unlimited source of psychic energy. a general term referring to all of the instincts. a finite amount of psychic energy. the same thing as "Thanatos." a finite amount of psychic energy. According to Freud, each of us is born with a(n) sexual attraction for the oppositeparent. desire to die and return to the earth. id, ego, and superego. unlimited amount of psychic energy. desire to die and return to the earth. Information about where you parked your car or the name of your uncle probably is stored in which part of the mind, according to Freud's topographic model? conscious preconscious unconscious subconscious preconscious The life instinct to which Freud attributed most of our behaviors is called id. neurotic impulse. libido. the structural model. libido Suppose you use one of the defense mechanisms described by Freud significantly more than any of the others. If you are a welland productive person, which defense mechanism would that probably be? repression sublimation displacement reaction formation sublimation The use of ___________ requires an individual to respond to ambiguous stimuli. free association dream analysis projective tests hypnosis projective tests The ego is found in which part of Freud's topographic model? conscious preconscious unconscious conscious, preconscious, and unconscious conscious, preconscious, and unconscious Which of the following is the best way to think of fixation? It occurs when we use defense mechanisms to deal with unconscious sexual and aggressive impulses. In development it occurs when children leave behind some psychic energy tied up in resolving a crisis. In our development the rewards in the environment take control of our behaviors. all of the above In development it occurs when children leave behind some psychic energy tied up in resolving a crisis. Repression is an __________ effort by the ego to push out threatening material from awareness. occasional organic active irrational active An honors student is caught stealing money from his teacher's desk. The teacher tells the student to report after school to discuss the incident. However, when the student arrives later that day, he cannot remember doing what the teacher accuses him of. This is an example of repression. sublimation. displacement. denial repression A man has the opportunity to cheat his business partner. However, he feels so worried and guilty about getting caught that he does not. In Freudian theory, the man probably was prevented from cheating by his id. ego superego. conscience. superego. A man has a strong unconscious urge to cheat business associates. He complains that he can't trust the people he does business with, that they will cheat and steal from him if he gives them half a chance. The man is exhibiting displacement. denial. reaction formation. projection. projection A woman is very upset with her mother. However, her ego will not allow her to express this hostility openly. According to Freud, what might we expect this woman to do? Explain to everyone how much she loves her mother. 'Accidentally' destroy one of her mother's favorite dishes. Express her hostility toward her own children. The woman might do any of the above. The woman might do any of the above Which statement is true about the superego? The superego is present in newborn children. The healthiest personality is one in which superego has control over ego and id. The actions of the superego are based on the reality principle. The superego represents internalized standards and values. The superego represents internalized standards and values. According to Freud, there is a difference between the manifest content and the latent content of our dreams because one is controlled by the id and one by the ego and superego. many of our unconscious thoughts and desires would be difficult for us to face upon waking. we can only recall the manifest content after waking up. one is conscious and the other unconscious. many of our unconscious thoughts and desires would be difficult for us to face upon waking If Sigmund Freud were to have abandoned his concept of the Oedipus complex, he would have needed to come up with another explanation for how unconscious needs are expressed in dreams. the superego develops. fixation affects adult personalities. defense mechanisms work. the superego develops Which of the following is correct about Freud's description of the Oedipus complex? Resolution of the Oedipus complex leads to the development of the superego. During this stage, girls wish they had male genitals and boys wish they had female genitals. Resolution of the Oedipus complex sends children into a stage in which they are physically attracted to members of the opposite sex, but not their parents. It takes place during the end of the oral stage. Resolution of the Oedipus complex leads to the development of the superego A patient in psychoanalysis begins to react towards the therapist with behaviors and emotions similar to those he patient displayed towards her father. This is an example of resistance. transference. countertransference. denial transference Which of the following is true about projective tests? Test takers are presented with ambiguous stimuli. Test givers are trained to recognize correct and incorrect answers. Projective tests typically are used to determine where a person lies on a particular personality trait dimension. Although once popular, projective tests are rarely used by psychologists today. Test takers are presented with ambiguous stimuli. During free association, a patient is encouraged to search his or her mind for clues about unconscious thoughts. report only those thoughts that seem psychologically significant. lapse into silence on occasion to get in touch with unconscious thoughts. say whatever comes into his or her mind. say whatever comes into his or her mind. Nathan is 37 years old. He smokes and drinks excessively and is constantly putting his hand to his mouth. What might Freud have said about Nathan? Nathan had an excessive amount of psychic energy fixated during the resolution of his Oedipus complex. Nathan had some traumatic experiences during the oral stage of development. Nathan has a weak superego. Nathan has not yet resolved his Oedipus complex. Nathan had some traumatic experiences during the oral stage of development. According to recent research findings, REM sleep appears to be necessary to maintain one's mental health. guard against serious psychological disturbances. prepare us for dealing with anxiety-arousing events. all of the above prepare us for dealing with anxiety-arousing events. Which of the following is true about REM sleep? We are more likely to dream during REM sleep than any other time during the night. Adults spend most of their sleeping hours in REM sleep. Muscles are more tense and active during REM sleep than nonsleep. Only about half of all adults experience REM sleep. We are more likely to dream during REM sleep than any other time during the night. From Freud's view of tension reduction, one can conclude that a joke will be funnier when it is sexual than when it is hostile. more tension is experienced before the punch line. tension increases rapidly. less tension is experienced before the punch line. more tension is experienced before the punch line. According to Freud, presenting angry people with hostile humor should lead to an increase in aggression. lead to a cathartic release of tension and an increase in aggression. lead to a cathartic release of tension and a decrease in aggression. increase anger, but not aggression. lead to a cathartic release of tension and a decrease in aggression. Which statement best summarizes the results of research on Freud's theory of humor? Very few of the research findings are consistent with Freud's predictions. Almost all of this research supports Freud's theory of humor. Although a few of the minor predictions from Freud's theory are supported, most of the major predictions have not been supported. Although many of the research findings are consistent with Freud's predictions, they are subject to alternative interpretations. Although many of the research findings are consistent with Freud's predictions, they are subject to alternative interpretations. The "hidden observer" demonstrations are used to support which theory of hypnosis? absorption theory neodissociation theory nontrance theory role theory neodissociation theory Which statement best summarizes what researchers have found about the changes in frequencies of male and female dream characters at different age levels? The adult pattern of frequencies of dream characters does not emerge until the teenage years. The pattern changes for males as they pass through the Oedipus complex. The frequencies of male and female characters completely reverses for both males and females as they age from childhood to adulthood. The pattern found in adult males and females is also found in samples of children of various ages. The pattern found in adult males and females is also found in samples of children of various ages. A stage hypnotist arranges chairs so that only a few of the many volunteers who rush to the stage are able to participate in the show. She does this to capitalize on which responsiveness-enhancing variable? expectancy attitude motivation absorption motivation All but which of the following has been found to enhance hypnotic responsiveness? positive attitudes toward hypnosis an expectation that one will become highly hypnotized a high level of motivation to become hypnotized a high extraversion score a high extraversion score According to Freud, which of the following functions is served by telling or listening to jokes? One's enemy can be attacked through humor. The punch line of a joke provides the satisfaction that comes with tension release. Sexual thoughts can be expressed in socially acceptable outlets. all of the above all of the above Critics of the neodissociation theory of hypnosis challenge the interpretation of the "hidden observer" demonstrations by conducting experiments in which they tell the "hidden observer" it will experience less pain when hypnotized. ask the "hidden observer" to report experiences through "automatic writing." tell the participant that the experimenter's machine can determine if he or she is lying. give the same instructions to people who are not hypnotized. tell the "hidden observer" it will experience less pain when hypnotized. Researchers find that each of us tends to rely on some defense mechanisms more than others. They refer to these individual patterns as the person's coping style. developmental level. emotional maturity level. defensive style. defensive style. Suppose you had to go all night without sleep in order to study for a final exam. If you suffer from _________, you will receive more REM sleep the next night. recurrent dream phenomenon the rebound effect extreme relaxation associated with having the final exam finished the paradox of sleep the rebound effect Which of the following is false about sexual jokes? Freud suggested we laugh at sexual jokes to reduce tension. Jokes are often tolerated when open discussions of sex are inappropriate. Most sexually oriented jokes contain a great deal of humor. Freud argued that the humor content of a sexual joke rarely justifies the laughter. Most sexually oriented jokes contain a great deal of humor. Which of the following defense mechanisms is said to protect the individual by attributing unacceptable thoughts to someone else? sublimation reaction formation denial projection projection Freud identified which defense mechanism as the cornerstone of psychoanalysis? sublimation dreaming repression denial repression Which statement best summarizes the results of research that presents hostile humor to angry participants? The findings are almost completely consistent with Freud's theory. The findings support the Freudian prediction about catharsis, but not the prediction about reducing aggression. The findings are mixed, sometimes supporting Freud's predictions, other times not. The findings are almost completely at odds with Freud's theory. The findings are mixed, sometimes supporting Freud's predictions, other times not. The influence of psychoanalytic theory can be seen most clearly in which explanation of hypnosis? absorption theory neodissociation theory nontrance theory role theory neodissociation theory If your friend the therapist agrees with Freud, the person would say that the content of our dreams reveals unacceptable ideas that are really acceptable. unconscious conflicts and desires. anxieties we were born with. much useless information. unconscious conflicts and desires. Some male participants in one study were told they scored high in femininity on a personality test. The investigator then asked the participants to tell stories about pictures in TAT cards. The investigator was studying masculinity and femininity. coping strategies. aggression. defense mechanisms. defense mechanisms. Research on the relationship between personality trait measures and hypnotic responsiveness generally has found personality traits such as sensationand extraversion are moderately correlated with hypnotic responsiveness. hypnotic responsiveness is related to a person's ability to become highly involved in sensory or imaginative experiences. no consistent evidence relating personality trait measures to hypnotic responsiveness. hypnotic responsiveness has more to do with the hypnotist's talent than the subject's ability to become hypnotized. hypnotic responsiveness is related to a person's ability to become highly involved in sensory or imaginative experiences. Which of the following do researchers commonly use to measure defense mechanisms? self-report inventories projective tests behavioral interviews hypnosis projective tests Which of the following best describes the cross-cultural findings when comparing the frequencies of male and female characters in dreams? Although there are a few exceptions, the frequencies found in American samples tend to be found in other cultures as well. American and European samples show different frequencies than nonsamples. Male characters tend to show up in dreams more frequently in malesocieties. Although a consistent pattern is found in the results from different American samples, no clear pattern emerges when looking at studies using participants from other cultures. Although there are a few exceptions, the frequencies found in American samples tend to be found in other cultures as well. Which of the following has been found effective for improving a person's hypnotic responsiveness? finding a compatible hypnotist giving the subject more experience with hypnosis changing the subject's expectancy to one of active involvement and responding changing the subject's personality changing the subject's expectancy to one of active involvement and responding When researchers asked people to rate cartoons for funniness, they found that each participant experienced a cathartic release of tension. cartoons with sexual and aggressive themes were rated as funnier than cartoons with other themes. the likelihood of participants acting aggressively significantly increased. funniness ratings were inconsistent with predictions from Freudian theory. cartoons with sexual and aggressive themes were rated as funnier than cartoons with other themes. Based on research findings, older children are more likely to use the defense mechanism of _________ than younger children. projection identification reaction formation sublimation projection Psychoanalytically oriented theorists explain posthypnotic amnesia by arguing that the experience has been recorded in a part of the mind not accessible to consciousness. participants do what they think they are supposed to do. participants have not been given an adequate incentive to report the experience. participants do not record the experience anywhere in memory. the experience has been recorded in a part of the mind not accessible to consciousness.

Based on research findings, which of the following defense mechanisms would we expect to find younger children using most frequently? denial identification reaction formation sublimation denial Participants in the "hidden observer" demonstrations placed their arms in painfully cold water. Researchers found that highly hypnotized participants reported experiencing no pain. could only experience pain after the experimenter told them they could. left their arm in the water, but reported through their "hidden observer" that the experience was painful. experienced no pain while hypnotized, but recalled the pain after the hypnosis was over. left their arm in the water, but reported through their "hidden observer" that the experience was painful. ________ refers to the tendency for each hemisphere of the brain to take control of different functions.
