Which of Horney's neurotic trends does Jeremy display? How does the focus of Horney's theory compare with that of evolutionary psychology?
On May 10, 2024
Jeremy's behavior is an example of Horney's moving against others and is demonstrated in his aggressive behavior toward Latisha.The focus of Horney's theory is quite different from that of evolutionary psychology in that Horney's theory discusses primarily social causes for behavior, especially neurotic behavior.In evolutionary psychology the emphasis is on the adaptive benefits of behaviors.Evolutionary psychologists believe that behavior that exists today must somehow benefit the species in the same way Darwin believed in survival of the fittest when he discussed physical characteristics.
