Psychological Defenses

Using dramatized case studies, both programs explain how defense mechanisms help people deal with everyday stress and how the unconscious affects behavior.

Part 1: Introduction/Repression

presents conscious, preconscious, and unconscious awareness as the basis of defense mechanisms.

Part 2: Avoidance/Denial

illustrates hiding from unwanted experiences and tuning out reality.

Part 3: Regression/Undoing

demonstrates that both behaviors involve resorting to immature behavior and minimizing one’s guilt over a secret wish.
