Displacement (psychology) - Wikipedia
The term displacement, originated with Sigmund Freud, is discussed and criticized.

The aggressive drive – known as mortido – may be displaced quite as much as the libidinal - the sex drive. Business or athletic competition, or hunting, for instance, offer plentiful opportunities for the expression of displaced mortido.[15]

In such scapegoating behavior, aggression may be displaced onto people with little or no connection with what is causing anger or frustration. Some people punch cushions when they are angry at friends; a college student may snap at his or her roommate when upset about an exam grade.

Displacement can also act in what looks like a 'chain-reaction,' with people unwittingly becoming both victims and perpetrators of displacement. For example, a man is angry with his boss, but he cannot express this properly, so he hits his wife. The wife, in turn, hits one of the children, possibly disguising this as a "punishment." (rationalization)

Ego psychology sought to use displacement in child rearing, a dummy being used as a displaced target for toddler sibling rivalry.[16] '''With a purpose to apprehend how the ego uses defense mechanisms, it is important to apprehend the defense mechanisms themselves and the way they function. A few defense mechanisms are visible as protecting us from the internal impulses (e.g., repression); other defense mechanism guard us from external threats (e.g., denial). [17]'''

I have removed the "header setting" for all of the information included and bolded what I think your contribution is after reviewing the history of the live article (I see you already added these changes to that article).

I believe the following was the text you were paraphrasing: "In order to understand how the ego uses defense mechanisms, it is necessary to understand the defense mechanisms themselves and how they function.  Some defense mechanisms are seen as protecting us from within from the instinctual impulses of the id (e.g., repression); other defense mechanisms protect us from external threats (e.g., denial).".

I think your paraphrasing might be a bit too close to the original source and I would recommend you rework this section and bring in additional sources. I would also recommend you link out references within your sandbox. (LIZ)

I took some advice from my peer review and added a small amount of information in the lead section along with a citation. I added "phobia displacement" in the Freud section with a citation. Lastly, I added more information in the transferential displacement section with a citation. (Alexis Polk)

Sigmund Freud's daughter, Anna Freud, also played an important role in the upbringing of these defense mechanisms by the twentieth century. She introduced and analyzed ten of her own defense mechanisms and her work has been used and increased through the years by newer psychoanalysts. (Alexis)

Phobia displacement or repression: Humans were able to express specific unconscious needs through phobias. These needs that were suppressed deep within themselves created anxiety and tension. The stress, fear, and anxiety that characterize a phobic disorder were the discharge. (Alexis)

As of now encoded in subcortical neural pathways, material from our oblivious brain is pushed into our cognizant psyche as we attempt to manage mental wonders – typically agonizing – that we are encountering. With the "help" of mind movement, we unknowingly re-surface and re-order struggle ridden encounters as though the past were the present and one setting were another. We move contemplations, sentiments, and perspectives, particularly about individuals who take after others. We allocate them jobs once played by others. We take on old jobs ourselves. All unwittingly. (Alexis)

Freud's hypothesis is acceptable at clarifying however not at anticipating conduct. Therefore, Freud's hypothesis is unfalsifiable - it can nor be demonstrated valid or invalidated. Freud may likewise have shown research predisposition in his understandings - he may have just focused on data which upheld his hypotheses, and overlooked data and different clarifications that didn't fit them.

Reaction Formation: Cognizant practices are embraced to overcompensate for the nervousness an individual feels in regards to their socially inadmissible oblivious considerations or feelings. Typically, a response arrangement is set apart by misrepresented conduct, like garishness and urgency. An illustration of reaction formation incorporates the loyal little girl who adores her mom is responding to her Oedipus scorn of her mom.

Anna Freud Contributions[edit]
Anna Freud is the daughter of Sigmund Freud. The cozy connection among Anna and her dad was unique in relation to the remainder of her family. She was an enthusiastic young woman with a standing for wickedness. She followed the way of her dad and added to the field of psychoanalysis. Anna Freud completed her schooling at Cottage Lyceum in Vienna in 1912 while dubious of her profession. Subsequently, she moved to England following two years to work on her English, however her time there was sliced short because of World War I, bringing about her re-visitation of Vienna where she started to instruct at her place of graduation in 1917 (Sigmund Freud Museum). Her further examinations comprised of gaining from her dad's analysis work and commonsense encounters. She turned into a youngster psychoanalyst without a practitioner training.

Anna Freud's special scholarly commitment was in broadening the extent of psychoanalytic hypothesis to kids. It ought to be reviewed that Freud recreated youth experience from the recollections of adults. He examined just a single youngster himself: Little Hans, whose dread of ponies was followed to mutilation nervousness. Indeed, even for this situation, his understanding of Little Hans' issues depended totally on letters composed by Hans' dad. Anna Freud was quick to examine children's lives straightforwardly. At the point when she did, she found that her patients' issues had their beginnings in friendly reality just as in private dream. From perceptions of kids in wartime, kids growing up, and offspring of separation, Anna Freud inferred that the self image needs to adapt to life just as with the impulses.
