Contemporary psychodynamic theorists are most likely to emphasize the importance of

A) sexual instincts.
B) free association.
C) inner conflicts.
D) oral fixations.

Contemporary psychodynamic theorists, also known as neo-Freudians, believe in the importance of inner conflicts and the unconscious mind, but have moved away from Freud's heavy emphasis on sexual instincts and oral fixations. Free association is still a technique used in psychodynamic therapy, but it is not necessarily the main focus of the theory.
