Evaluation

Strengths

Takes all experiences into account

Unique method to uncovering unconscious thoughts

Useful as it can uncover manifestations of underlying conflicts between the ID and superego.

Idiographic approach – treats each patient as an individual

Slide10

Evaluation

WeaknessesInappropriate for certain people as it may reinforce thoughts that are already obsessive.Highly subjective and unfalsifiable.

Due to complicated nature of explanation for disorder, unable to give a clear point for when a patient has been “cured”

Lengthy and time consuming

Criticised for trauma it causes patients – looking back in depth at negative childhood experiences

True or False?

Thumbs up for true, down for false!
