History and Evolution of Freudian Theory

Explaining how the psychoanalysis perspective fits as the founding movement in the history and systems of psychology helps the doctoral learner prepare for research into describing human behavior. Further, understanding the basic components of the ego and the philosophic influences of ego development allow for enhanced understanding of the learner’s self and those with whom the learner comes in contact including the human subjects of empirical research. In this assignment, you will explore the history of Freudian theory and create a partial outline of the larger paper you will write for submission in Topic 4. General Requirements: Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment: ·         Review Chapters 1 and 2 of the Ellman text. ·         This assignment uses a rubric.
