Please review the module lecture materials and corresponding textbook chapter(s). 2. Please read the information in the syllabus about the assignments. It describes how to complete and submit your assignment and how it will be graded. 3. When you are ready, please answer the questions below in the space provided. 4. When you are finished, please submit your assignment as a Word or PDF file. Sections 4.1 and 4.11: The Lives of Adler (1870-1937) and Horney (1885-1952) Which three aspects of Adler’s and/or Horney’s lives interest you most? Explain why. I'm mostly interested in these three parts of Alfred Adler and Karen Horney's lives: Adler's Concept of the Inferiority Complex: I find Adler's idea of the inferiority complex to be fascinating. I find it fascinating how Adler's beliefs were shaped by his personal experiences as a child with physical illnesses and a sense of inadequacy. Understanding how people deal with and develop emotions of inferiority can help us better understand motivation and behaviour in people. Horney's Feminist Perspective: Another thing that has me interested is Karen Horney's feminist perspective on psychology. Understanding how societal expectations and standards shape Sections 4.2 and 4.3: Inferiority Feeling and Striving for Superiority (Adler) What do you think about Adler’s descriptions of the complexes and fictional finalism? Describe a time you have observed any of these concepts in your everyday life (e.g., bullying). I find Adler's explanations of complexes and fictional finalism to be thought-provoking. Complexes can shed light on how people create coping mechanisms and strive for superiority. One such complex is the inferiority complex. Fictional finalism, the notion that people are motivated by imagined ideals or future aims, offers a distinctive viewpoint on inspiration and meaning. When I saw bullying occurring in real-world situations, I saw the concept of complexes at work. The bully's actions appeared to be motivated by a deep-seated desire for power and supremacy, which could indicate the presence of an inferiority complex. This discovery is consistent with Adler's views regarding the causes of bullying behaviour. Please be succinct and stay within TWO pages for the completed assignment. Please reduce the font size of your replies if you have more to add than what the space allows. Thank you!
Sections 4.4 and 4.6: Style of Life, Social Interest, and Birth Order (Adler) From topics in Sections 4.4 and 4.6, choose three that interest you most. Explain why. The Four Basic Styles of Life: I find Adler's examination of the four fundamental life styles to be interesting. I find it fascinating how people deal with their perceived inferiorities and pursue supremacy using various coping mechanisms. Individual variances in behaviour, motivation, and general life happiness can be better understood by being aware of these styles. The First-born Child: I find Adler's insights about first-born children's traits fascinating. Understanding how birth order affects personality development can help us understand sibling relationships, family dynamics, and the effects of parental expectations. The first-born's experiences, relationships, and interactions within the family and in broader social contexts are Section 4.12: The Childhood Need for Safety and Security (Horney) Do you agree with Horney’s ideas about children and hostility toward parents? Explain. My perspective on Horney's ideas about children and hostility toward parents is one of critical evaluation rather than personal agreement or disagreement. While it is vital to recognise that children might experience conflict and unfavourable feelings in their relationships with their parents, it is equally important to approach these concepts with caution and take into account individual differences and environmental influences. According to research, the parent-child bond is intricate and varied, influenced by a variety of elements such as parenting approaches, attachment behaviours, and the larger sociocultural setting. Before drawing broad conclusions about children's animosity towards their parents, it is important to look at the individual Sections 4.13 and 4.14: Basic Anxiety and Neurotic Needs (Horney) Choose a Section 4.13 topic and a Section 4.14 topic that interests you most. Explain why. From the first set of topics, "Securing Affection" is the one that most fascinates me, while from the second set of topics, "Neurotic Trends" is the one that most intrigues me. Securing Affection: This subject interests me because it examines the essential need for love and connection in all people. Understanding people's desire for and maintenance of intimate connections can reveal information about attachment styles, social ties, and general psychological health. Neurotic Trends: I'm interested in this subject because it discusses unhealthy behavioural habits and coping techniques. Investigating these patterns may shed light on the inner conflicts and Sections 4.15 and 4.16: The Idealized Self-image and Feminine Psychology (Horney) From topics in Sections 4.15 and 4.16, choose three that interest you most. Explain why. The top three topics that most fascinate me are: The Tyranny of the Shoulds: This subject interests me because it examines the demands and expectations that people place on themselves internally. Perfectionism, self-criticism, and the emergence of psychological pain can all be understood in the context of these self-imposed standards' psychological effects. Investigating the causes and effects of the "tyranny of the shoulds" can help with interventions that support self-compassion and overall wellbeing. Womb Envy: The subject of "womb envy" is intriguing since it presents a different viewpoint on gender dynamics and the psychological experiences of men. Insights about gender identity, Please be succinct and stay within TWO pages for the completed assignment.
