Document Summary

These make it easier for the present self to get their mind around these types of ideas: 4) transfer of phenomena- reliving a trauma by projecting the trauma onto someone else. Janet- said the subconscious for the collection of automatically stored memories that form the map that guides interaction with the environment. This memory has no special component and is inflexible and invariable. He says that memory disturbances and reenactments seen in hysteria are a result of active repression of conflict-laden sexual and aggressive ideas and impulses. Interpretation of dreams- claimed that infantile memories are stored in memory but remain unavailable for retrieval because of actively repressed forbidden impulses. Inhibitions, symptoms, anxiety- he says that if a person does not remember, they are likely to act out. Agreeing with janet, he says that a crucial factor that determines the repetition of trauma is the presence of mute, un-symbolized and unintegrated experiences.
