Erik Erikson and Alfred Adler are two Neo-Freudians that developed their own theories under Freud’s influences. The change they contribute to classical psychoanalysis was the emphasis of social factors as an influence of development of personality. Adler's theory of striving for superiority broadens the ideas to show that people are not only driven primarily by sexual and aggression drives. While Erikson’s 8 stages of psychosocial development is different from Freud's psychosexual stages it also helps contributed to the understanding of human behavior.

First essay

i'm pretty satisfy with the score for the first essay in ib psychology class.
i like the structure of essay in class because it gets to the point straight away. no need for attention device and the "waffle"...

we must be very careful about our word choice, because in psychology, we can't use words like "discover" "truth."

the essay question looks easy but when it comes to writing, its quite hard to come up with a "focused" "on topic" essay.
