Sigmund Freud was an Austrian neurologist who founded psychoanalysis. He developed theories about the structure of the human mind and stages of psychosexual development. Freud proposed that the mind is divided into the id, ego, and superego, which are constantly in conflict. He believed unconscious motives and childhood experiences shape adult behavior. Freud made major contributions through his theories of dreams, defense mechanisms, and the importance of sexuality in development. Though influential, Freud's theories are also subject to some criticism regarding emphasis on childhood and sexuality as motivators.

Psychology is defined as the science of mind and behavior. Human psychological development involves personality, cognition, emotion, and self-concept. Each child develops into a unique entity with individual strengths and weaknesses. At the same time, however, some principles and processes apply to the psychological development of all people. Likewise, virtually everyone is subject to similar psychological feelings and reactions that affect their behavior.
This example portrays two schoolboys discussing their current academic careers. Numerous psychological concepts and variables are affecting even this simple interaction. The boys are addressing their own and their peers’ ability to learn and achieve. Learning is easier for some children and more difficult for others. Personality characteristics also come into play. Some children are more dominant and aggressive. Others are more passive. Some young people are more motivated to achieve and win. Others are less interested and enthusiastic. Finally, some children feel good about themselves, and others have poor self-concepts.
A Perspective
Psychological variables interact with biological and social factors to affect an individual’s situation and behavior. Their interaction influences the potential courses of action available to a person at any point in time. This chapter will focus on some of the psychological concepts that critically impact children as they grow up. There are four major thrusts. The first presents a perspective on how personalities develop. The second provides a basic understanding of how children think and learn. The third focuses on emotion, and the fourth on self-concept.
Learning Objectives
This chapter will:
A. Summarize prominent psychological theories concerning personality development, including psychodynamic, neo-Freudian psychoanalytic, behavioral, phenomenological, and feminist theories.
B. Suggest a procedure for evaluating theory and discuss some concepts useful in enhancing sensitivity to human diversity when doing so.
C. Examine Piaget’s theory of cognitive development and Vygotsky’s sociocultural theory of cognitive development.
D. Describe the concept of emotion and investigate the development of temperament and attachment.
E. Discuss self-concept and self-esteem.
F. Examine the concepts of intelligence and intelligence testing, emphasizing the potential cultural and other biases involved.
G. Explore cognitive disabilities (mental retardation), learning disabilities, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, their effects on children, and current macro system responses.Theories of Psychological Development

WINDING UP of COMPANY, Modes of DissolutionKHURRAMWALI
Winding up, also known as liquidation, refers to the legal and financial process of dissolving a company. It involves ceasing operations, selling assets, settling debts, and ultimately removing the company from the official business registry.
Here's a breakdown of the key aspects of winding up:
Reasons for Winding Up:
Insolvency: This is the most common reason, where the company cannot pay its debts. Creditors may initiate a compulsory winding up to recover their dues.
Voluntary Closure: The owners may decide to close the company due to reasons like reaching business goals, facing losses, or merging with another company.
Deadlock: If shareholders or directors cannot agree on how to run the company, a court may order a winding up.
Types of Winding Up:
Voluntary Winding Up: This is initiated by the company's shareholders through a resolution passed by a majority vote. There are two main types:
Members' Voluntary Winding Up: The company is solvent (has enough assets to pay off its debts) and shareholders will receive any remaining assets after debts are settled.
Creditors' Voluntary Winding Up: The company is insolvent and creditors will be prioritized in receiving payment from the sale of assets.
Compulsory Winding Up: This is initiated by a court order, typically at the request of creditors, government agencies, or even by the company itself if it's insolvent.
Process of Winding Up:
Appointment of Liquidator: A qualified professional is appointed to oversee the winding-up process. They are responsible for selling assets, paying off debts, and distributing any remaining funds.
Cease Trading: The company stops its regular business operations.
Notification of Creditors: Creditors are informed about the winding up and invited to submit their claims.
Sale of Assets: The company's assets are sold to generate cash to pay off creditors.
Payment of Debts: Creditors are paid according to a set order of priority, with secured creditors receiving payment before unsecured creditors.
Distribution to Shareholders: If there are any remaining funds after all debts are settled, they are distributed to shareholders according to their ownership stake.
Dissolution: Once all claims are settled and distributions made, the company is officially dissolved and removed from the business register.
Impact of Winding Up:
Employees: Employees will likely lose their jobs during the winding-up process.
Creditors: Creditors may not recover their debts in full, especially if the company is insolvent.
Shareholders: Shareholders may not receive any payout if the company's debts exceed its assets.
Winding up is a complex legal and financial process that can have significant consequences for all parties involved. It's important to seek professional legal and financial advice when considering winding up a company.
PRECEDENT AS A SOURCE OF LAW (SAIF JAVED).pptxOmGod1
Precedent, or stare decisis, is a cornerstone of common law systems where past judicial decisions guide future cases, ensuring consistency and predictability in the legal system. Binding precedents from higher courts must be followed by lower courts, while persuasive precedents may influence but are not obligatory. This principle promotes fairness and efficiency, allowing for the evolution of the law as higher courts can overrule outdated decisions. Despite criticisms of rigidity and complexity, precedent ensures similar cases are treated alike, balancing stability with flexibility in judicial decision-making.

RIGHTS OF VICTIM EDITED PRESENTATION(SAIF JAVED).pptxOmGod1
Victims of crime have a range of rights designed to ensure their protection, support, and participation in the justice system. These rights include the right to be treated with dignity and respect, the right to be informed about the progress of their case, and the right to be heard during legal proceedings. Victims are entitled to protection from intimidation and harm, access to support services such as counseling and medical care, and the right to restitution from the offender. Additionally, many jurisdictions provide victims with the right to participate in parole hearings and the right to privacy to protect their personal information from public disclosure. These rights aim to acknowledge the impact of crime on victims and to provide them with the necessary resources and involvement in the judicial process.

About Sigmund Freud
3. Freud’s Models of the Mind
Freud’s has model of the human mind. His model divides the
mind into three layers, or regions:
i. Conscious: This is where our current thoughts, feelings, and focus live.
ii. Preconscious (sometimes called the subconscious): This is the home of
everything we can recall or retrieve from our memory.
iii. Unconscious: At the deepest level of our minds resides a repository of the
processes that drive our behavior, including primitive and instinctual desires.
4. Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalytic theory
The earliest psychological approaches to crime were based on Sigmund Freud's (1870–
1937) psychoanalytic theory.
Which divided the human personality into id, ego, and superego. The id described
all the instinctual drives that come from our biological heritage.
Criminality largely was explained as a failure of the superego, a consequence of a
failure to form healthy and loving attachments to parents.
The actions and behavior of an adult are understood in terms of childhood
development.
Behavior and unconscious motives are intertwined, and their interaction must be
unraveled if we are to understand criminality.
Criminality is essentially a representation of psychological conflict."
5. According to Sigmund Freud, human personality is complex and has more than
a single component.
In his famous psychoanalytic theory of personality, personality is composed of
three elements. These three elements of personality known as:
1. the id
2. the ego
3. the superego
This theory is known as Freud’s structural theory of personality.
Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalytic theory of personality argues that human behavior
is the result of the interactions among three component parts of the mind that
places great emphasis on the role of unconscious psychological conflicts in
shaping behavior and personality.
6. Freud’s Structure of the Human Mind
According to Freud, our personality develops from the interactions among the
three fundamental structures of the human mind: the id, ego, and superego.
Conflicts among these three structures and our efforts to find balance among
what each of them “desires”, determines how we behave and approach the
world.
What balance we strike in any given situation determines how we will resolve
the conflict between two overarching behavioral tendencies: our biological
aggressive and pleasure-seeking drives vs. our socialized internal control over
those drives.
7. About the “id”
The id operates at an unconscious level and focuses solely on instinctual drives and
desires.
The id, the most primitive of the three structures, is concerned with instant
gratification of basic physical needs and urges. It operates entirely unconsciously
(outside of conscious thought).
For example, if your id walked past a stranger eating ice cream, it would most likely
take the ice cream for itself. It doesn’t know, or care, that it is rude to take something
belonging to someone else; it would care only that you wanted the ice cream.
The id is driven by the pleasure principle, which strives for immediate gratification
of all desires, wants, and needs.
If these needs are not satisfied immediately, the result is a state anxiety or tension.
For example, an increase in hunger or thirst should produce an immediate attempt to
eat or drink.
The id is very important early in life because it ensures that an infant's needs are met.
If the infant is hungry or uncomfortable, he or she will cry until the demands of the
id are satisfied.
8. The “Ego”
The ego is the component of personality that is responsible for dealing with
reality.
According to Freud, the ego develops from the id and ensures that the impulses
of the id can be expressed in a manner acceptable in the real world.
The ego functions in both the conscious, preconscious, and unconscious mind.
It’s what Freud considered to be the “self,” and its job is to balance the
demands of the id and superego in the practical context of reality.
So, if you walked past the stranger with ice cream one more time, your ego
would mediate the conflict between your id (“I want that ice cream right now”)
and superego (“It’s wrong to take someone else’s ice cream”) and decide to go
buy your own ice cream.
While this may mean you have to wait 10 more minutes, which would frustrate
your id, your ego decides to make that sacrifice as part of the compromise–
satisfying your desire for ice cream while also avoiding an unpleasant social
situation and potential feelings of shame.
9. The “Superego”
The superego is concerned with social rules and morals—similar to what many
people call their ” conscience ” or their “moral compass.”
It develops as a child learns what their culture considers right and wrong.
If your superego walked past the same stranger, it would not take their ice
cream because it would know that that would be rude.
However, if both your id and your superego were involved, and your id was
strong enough to override your superego’s concern, you would still take the ice
cream, but afterward you would most likely feel guilt and shame over your
actions.
Freud believed that the id, ego, and superego are in constant conflict and that adult
personality and behavior are rooted in the results of these internal struggles
throughout childhood.
He believed that a person who has a strong ego has a healthy personality and that
imbalances in this system can lead to neurosis (what we now think of as anxiety
and depression) and unhealthy behaviors.
10. Psychosexual Stages of Development
Freud believed that the nature of the conflicts among the id, ego, and superego
change over time as a person grows from child to adult.
Specifically, he maintained that these conflicts progress through a series of
five basic stages, each with a different focus: oral, anal, phallic, latency, and
genital.
He called his idea the psychosexual theory of development, with each
psychosexual stage directly related to a different physical center of pleasure.
11. Defense Mechanisms
Freud believed these three parts of the mind are in constant conflict because
each part has a different primary goal.
Sometimes, when the conflict is too much for a person to handle, his or her ego
may engage in one or many defense mechanisms to protect the individual.
Freud's take on defense mechanisms still holds relevance.
12. These defense mechanisms include:
Repression: The ego pushes disturbing or threatening thoughts out of one’s
consciousness;
Denial: The ego blocks upsetting or overwhelming experiences from awareness,
causing the individual to refuse to acknowledge or believe what is happening;
Projection: The ego attempts to solve discomfort by attributing the individual’s
unacceptable thoughts, feelings, and motives to another person;
Displacement: The individual satisfies an impulse by acting on a substitute object or
person in a socially unacceptable way (e.g. releasing frustration directed toward your
boss on your spouse instead);
Regression: As a defense mechanism, the individual moves backward in development
in order to cope with stress (e.g. an overwhelmed adult acting like a child);
Sublimation: Similar to displacement, this defense mechanism involves satisfying an
impulse by acting on a substitute but in a socially acceptable way (e.g. channeling
energy into work or a constructive hobby).
13. The Interpretation of Dreams
Another well-known concept from Freud was his belief in the significance of
dreams. He believed that analyzing one’s dreams can give valuable insight into the
unconscious mind.
In 1900, Freud published the book The Interpretation of Dreams in which he
outlined his hypothesis that the primary purpose of dreams was to provide
individuals with wish fulfillment, allowing them to work through some of their
repressed issues in a situation free from consciousness and the constraints of
reality.
In this book, he also distinguished between the manifest content (the actual dream)
and the latent content (the true or hidden meaning behind the dream).
The purpose of dreams is to translate forbidden wishes and taboo desires into a
non-threatening form through condensation (the joining of two or more ideas),
displacement (transformation of the person or object we are concerned about into
something or someone else), and secondary elaboration (the unconscious process
of turning the wish-fulfillment images or events into a logical narrative).
14. Freud’s ideas about dreams were game-changing. Before Freud, dreams were
considered insignificant and insensible ramblings of the mind at rest.
His book provoked a new level of interest in dreams, an interest that continues
to this day.
15. Drive theory
Drive theory is based on the principle that organisms are born with certain
psychological needs and that a negative state of tension is created when these
needs are not satisfied.
When a need is satisfied, drive is reduced and the organism returns to a state of
homeostasis and relaxation.

17. Criticism of Freud's Psychoanalytic Theory
One of the largest criticisms of the psychoanalytic theory is that it places far to
much emphasis on childhood.
For one, Freud's theory says that personality development occurs during
childhood, but many modern psychologists say that this development is
lifelong.
Freud's emphasis on sexual urges as a primary motivator.
Freud's negative view of human nature.
Freud's belief that personality was shaped entirely by early childhood
experiences.
Freud's lack of emphasis on social and cultural influences on behavior and
personality.
