- Repression is an unconscious mechanism employed by the ego to keep disturbing or threatening thoughts from being conscious. An example is repressed aggressive thoughts about same sex parents during the Oedipus complex.
- Displacement
- The fourth stage of Freud's Defense Mechanisms is Displacement.
- Denial involves blocking external events from awareness. if some situation is too much to handle, the person just refuses to accept it. One example is when smokers refuse to admit to themselves that smoking is bad for their health.
- Regression
- Projection involves individuals attributing their own unacceptable thoughts, feeling, and motives to another person. An example is if a wife is attracted to a male co-worker but refuses to admit her feelings to herself, and when her husband talks to a female co worker she becomes jealous and accuses him of cheating.
- Displacement is satisfying an impulse with a substituted object. One example is if a n employee is mad at her boss, they might go home and kick their dog.
- Regression is a movement back in psychological time when one is faced with stress. An example is when a child may wet the bed when they need to spend time at the hospital.
