How does Adler's approach to psychology differ from Freud’s?
Less focus on sexuality
More focus on aggression
No focus on the unconscious
More on feelings of belonging
Answer
Adler's psychology places more emphasis on feelings of belonging, inferiority, and the drive to compensate for those feelings. He focused on the role of the individual's social and cultural context and believed that people are motivated by the desire for significance and self-actualization, rather than by the unconscious sexual and aggressive urges emphasized by Freud.
