Taking into consideration that a Freudian analysis has to do with the unconscious, some of the characters may be analyzed more deeply than others. Hamlet, the Prince, for example, gives us a vast field of interpretations. Some would say that he had developed (like any human beign) the Oedipus complex and it would start his feeling towards his mother, the Queen. This, in the future, will develop in him a sort of misogyny that will influence his attitudes towards women during the play....

Everything that bothers us in our life can cause stress. Someone, for example, can feel stress doing some hard and long-term work like writing an essay or doing the house. Probably you do it not every day, but when you bother with it can cause stress. Sometimes we can feel stress during the meeting with somebody who is very important to your life or to you work. When we try to do something in order to impress or to influence we can be under the stress. But if we want to impress someone...

Concentration plays a vital role in doing well in studies. A student has to work really hard and concentrate firmly to get the concepts well in mind.

However, lack of concentration is said to be one of the major causes of failure in studies these days. There are many factors which may distract concentration in teenagers; some of them are discussed below:

1. Fatigue:Today’s teenagers opt for a different kind of lifestyle which includes partying with friends...

For centuries, people have been trying to define intelligence. However, a universally agreed upon definition proves to be elusive so far. To some, intelligence is the ability to acquire new information and to adjust to new circumstances, while others regard the skills to solve complex problems as more important. Thus, many contrasting theories have emerged. The four theories with the largest number of followers are the theory of general intelligence, the theory of primary mental...

Diffent methods of measuring Attitudes

Attitude can be measured in several ways. Attitudes are revealed in the behaviour of an individual. So they can be measured by direct observation of overt behaviour of the individual this method, needless to point out has all the defects of observation. In addition to the difficult of experimentally creating a stimulated situation where on the behaviour can be observed.

Distinguished techniques like error technique (Hammond,...

In previous articles we’ve discussed the ‘business-side’ of counselling: marketing tips and business guidelines which can help counsellors build a successful practice. Most therapists possess an innate desire to help others, and because of this emotional involvement, sometimes it can be challenging to convert the potential into practical results.

Whilst we’ve tackled the basic premises which can help counsellors enter the market and attract clients,...

During the entire time I was reading "A Child Called It' , I couldn't help but draw correlations between David Pelzer's mother (Catherine Roerva Christen Pelzer) and Borderline Personality Disorder. After I was finished reading the book, I started my search to see what mental illness Catherine had suffered. All I have managed to find was that she was mentally ill and an alcoholic. No details have emerged of what type of mental illness she suffered. So, with the facts about...

There are a number of things in life that can cause a person to lose weight. Many causes relate to a number of different physical health problems, such as types of terminal illness or sicknesses that are not always easily treated, or mental health problems, such as depression or stress. While the weight loss that is caused by physical health problems are easy enough to figure out and even treat, the weight loss that is due to mental health problems can be more difficult to treat because...

Is not a computer's capacity limited to the hard drive and are the contents of a book not limited by the number of pages? Much like a CD can only hold so much information, the limitless potential of the human brain applies only to the variety of information rather then the actual amount of it. The brain can absorb and explain the most complex systems imaginable, but the brain is in itself a system. It is born, it grows, and it stabilizes in relation to the environment, and eventually...
