Someone has a dream about a train traveling through a tunnel, which represents his hidden desire to engage in sexual intercourse. According to Freud's view of dreaming, what would be the latent content of this dream

Answers

Answer:

According to Freud's view of dreaming,  the latent content of this dream is connected to sexual intercourse.

Explanation:

According to Freud's view of dreaming, Freud pointed out a constant connection between some part of every dream and the dreamer's life with a solid conclusion that every dream attempted to gratified some sort of wishes, this approach disregards the popular believe that dreams are just nonsensical coming from nowhere and leading nowhere 

In his interpretation of dreams, Freuds explains the differences between what he termed surface or manifest content of dreams and its latent or hidden content, he believes that the true meaning of dreams lies in its hidden content. He analysis the example of the dream given in the question: the train is a symbol for a pe n  is, the tunnel is a symbol to represent a vagi na while riding the train through the tunnel represents the dreamer's desire for sex-ual intercourse.

Therefore, the latent content of this dream is connected to se x-ual intercourse

Answers

Answer:

True information: People with high self-esteem tend to take credit for success and attribute failures to situations outside their control. People with high self-esteem make upward social comparisons. False information: The self-serving bias reflects healthy psychological functioning. Most people think about their failures realistically.

Explanation:

Maintaining a positive sense of yourself is a beneficial habit that must be practiced by all individuals. People who have a positive sense of themselves, tend to have high esteem, recognize their qualities, recognize when they deserve recognition and, moreover, recognize that they have flaws and that some of them are beyond their control. In summary, we can say that these people tend to take credit for their success and attribute failures to situations beyond their control, in addition to making upward social comparisons, where they find similarities between them and superior and admirable people.

People who are unable to maintain this habit tend to have low self-esteem and a negative view of themselves. Often these people develop a selfish bias, which represents an unhealthy psychological and emotional system. moreover, these people tend to think of their flaws unrealistically, seeing them as much bigger and more serious than what they really are.

Answers

Answer: Companionate

Explanation: Companionate love could be explained as a relationship or love affair which exists between married partners who have been stayed together for a very long time. This type of relationship or togetherness is usually kept alive due to the intimacy created by the length of their being together (usually very long).

A transportation company from State A sued a tourism company from State B in federal court for breach of contract seeking $76,000 in damages. The transportation company filed an appropriate demand for a jury trial, and both parties stipulated that the jury would consist of 10 people. Following the trial and deliberations, nine of the jurors voted in favor of the plaintiff for $29,000 in damages, but one juror voted for the defendant. The defendant appealed.
On which of the following grounds would the defendant most likely prevail on appeal?
A The court lacked subject matter jurisdiction because the verdict did not exceed $75,000.
B The court lacked personal jurisdiction.
C The ruling was defective because the jury's vote was not unanimous.
D The ruling was defective because it was rendered by fewer than 12 jurors.

Answers

Answer:

C The ruling was defective because the jury's vote was not unanimous.

Explanation:

In most court cases, there is need for the jury's decision to be totally unanimous before the Judge could be able to pass a verdict. lack of unanimous decision would cast aspersion on the whole case.

In the case of the defendant, he or she will appeal the case based on the fact that one jury didn't agree with the other juries regarding to the court case he or she had with the transportation company.

Detracking is a major concern to parents of __________ students because they believe they should have classes that maximize their potential, rather than hold them back with less-able or less-talented students.

High-Achieving

According to the symbolic interactionist approach, members of a religious group expect each member to perform certain normative religious beliefs. A "commitment" is expected of members of a religious group.

This contributes to religion becoming a master status for some people. This means that their religious identity becomes a central defining aspect of their lives, shaping their behavior, interactions, and overall self-perception.

The expectations placed on individuals by their religious group create a sense of obligation and responsibility to adhere to the group's beliefs and practices.

This commitment reinforces the significance of religion as a primary aspect of their identity, influencing their social roles and relationships, and often leading to the prioritization of religious beliefs over other aspects of their lives.
