consciousness anxiety-arousing thoughts, feelings, and memories

the id's desires in ways that will realistically bring pleasure rather than pain.

Anal Stage (18-36 months) - ✔✔-pleasure focuses on bowel and bladder elimination; coping with
demands for control
phalic stage - ✔✔-According to Freud, the third psychosexual stage (from 3 to 6 years) in which
gratification is focused on the genitals
,latent stage - ✔✔-Freud's stage of psychosexual development occuring from about age 6 to puberty
during which little happens in psychosexual terms

adulthood, during which the sexual conflicts of childhood resurface (at puberty) and are often resolved
during adolescence).
Piaget's Theory - ✔✔-Theory stating that children actively construct their understanding of the world
and go through four stages of cognitive development.

world in order to fit his internal world.
Equilibrium (Piaget) - ✔✔-balance between assimilation and accommodation
Accommodation (Piaget) - ✔✔-adapting our current understandings (schemas) to incorporate new
information

assimilation and accommodation.

this stage engage in symbolic play and can solve problems mentally
, Concrete Operational Stage (Piaget) - ✔✔-7-12. The child develops the ability to understand constant
factors in the environment, rules, and higher-order symbolic systems. Conservation is developed here.
Formal Operational Stage (Piaget) - ✔✔-12-adulthood. Children develop the ability to think logically in
the abstract. They develop deductive reasoning skills and are capable of achieving post-conventional
moral reasoning.

Assumes that people are basically rational and that behavior is largely due to ego functioning.
Each of the 8 stages involves a psychosocial task that is to be mastered. If not mastered, the person still
continues to develop, but the ego is damaged and subsequent stages will be affected.

may become profoundly confused, emotionally volatile, and uncooperative (with a wide variety of
behaviors across individuals). The signs of sundowning syndrome reliably occur with onset at or after
daylight hours, and may become progressively more severe in cases of progressive forms of dementia. It
also is observed in individuals who are survivors of traumatic brain injuries, although it is not as well
documented as with dementias.
Universalization - ✔✔-technique of therapeutic communication in which the thought or behavior
expressed is normalized to help the client feel less disoriented and to remove barriers to effective
problem-solving.
