Carl Jung
Essay jung and freud contrast personality theories
Compare and contrast two personality theories. On the evidence supplied which do you believe gives a better account of human nature? Two of the pioneers in personality theory were Sigmund Freud and the man who at one time was his student Carl Jung. The empirical evidence of their theories is mostly clinical, from their own observations of people from the standpoint of a physician. As some of Jung?s theory stems from Freud?s concepts, there is some overlap but Freud had a biological focus on personality whereas Jung was mythical with ideas such as the collective unconscious. By comparing and contrasting the two theories, a judgment can be made as to one's preferred personality theory.
