This bachelor thesis strives to answer the following question: How can the dream theories of Freud and Jung contribute to the analysis of a dream, and can the theories be used to understand present-day problems? In this thesis, I apply the methods of Freud and Jung in the analysis of one of my own dreams.
This bachelor thesis examines misogyny in a developmental and social psychological perspective. The aim of the study is to move towards an understanding of the mechanisms behind the development of misogyny both on the intrapsychic, intersubjective and societal level. To this end the thesis is based on a moderate eclectic method that combines concepts from psychoanalysis and social constructionism.
This bachelor thesis seeks an understanding of the phenomenon ecological shame (or eco-shame) by exploring theoretical perspectives on the emotional dimension of climate change. Furthermore, this paper investigates whether or not eco-shame promotes climate-friendly behavior. The theoretical perspectives are presented by Sara Ahmed, Martha Craven Nussbaum and Michel Foucault.
The mirror neuron system (MNS) consists of fronto-parietal neurons active during both the execution and observation of actions. In the mirror neuron theory of action understanding, activation of the MNS facilitates an understanding of action goals. The aim of this bachelor thesis is to explore whether infants’ development of action understanding can be understood within this theoretical framework
Play is an essential part of human life not just in childhood but also throughout our adult lives. In the last two decades the selection of games marketed towards adults has grown exponentially including board games, video games and role-playing games. The latter is the focus of this paper specifically in the form of Dungeons & Dragons, a tabletop role-playing game originally released in 1975 and currently in its 5th edition. This paper sets out to understand the significance playing Dungeons & Dragons has for adult participants.
This paper attempts to examine the relations between the nuclear family, gay marriage and Western capitalism through a theoretical analysis with the help of Herbert Marcuse’s Eros & Civilization and Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari’s Anti-Oedipus. Respectively, these theoreticians allow the use of a Freudo-Marxian and a schizoanalytic perspective to answer the following theoretical question: How can Marcuse’s terminology together with that of Deleuze and Guattari’s be applied to explore desire within the relationship between the nuclear family and the societal structure of capitalism to understand the historical emergence of gay marriage?
In this bachelor thesis I examine the phylogenetic origins of unipolar depression. Some evolutionary psychologist has argued that clinical depression is a discrete adaption while others argue that it is a malfunction of the adaptative capacity for low mood. I account for the arguments of each field and subsequently for behavioral genetic findings on depression and three models of genetic variation from evolutionary genetics which explain why natural selection has not eliminated susceptibility alleles for psychopathology.
This bachelor thesis seeks to explore the differences between the subject model in behavioral economics and the one in neoclassical economics. The neoclassical economics have been widely criticized because of their lack of understanding of reality, as they e.g. assume perfect rationality in man.
This bachelor’s thesis examines whether action video games have an influence on selective attention. Therefore, it places itself within the field of cognitive psychology. Due to the in- creased number of gamers in the recent years, it has become even more important to exam- ine the interaction between gamer and video game. The thesis presents a theoretical foun- dation of visual selective attention as well as two methods used within the field of video games effect on selective attention; the ‘Useful Field of View’ and the ‘Theory of Visual At- tention’.
This bachelor thesis aims to gain a broad understanding of this new diagnostic model and how its configuration reflects psychological theory. The content of the model is therefore examined in the light of two theoretical paradigms with opposing views on the ontology of diagnoses. On one hand, the model is analyzed applying empirical evidence and theory based on the trait approach to personality and personality disorder, reflecting the ontology of realism. On the other hand, essential concepts from Foucault and Hacking are used for a theoretical analysis of the model, representing the nominalist ontology.
This thesis investigates if test results from personality tests can influence how participants understand, feel and think about themselves. This has been examined through two perspectives; The trait approach using Big Five and HEXACO and narrative psychology described by Bruner. Trait approach has been used to explain personality testing and narrative psychology explains the dynamic interaction between individuals and the culture they live in.
This bachelor thesis examines the traumatic memory from a cognitive neuroscientific and a psychoanalytic perspective. The aim is to make a critical assessment of two of the criteria for PTSD; criterium A in DSM-5 and ICD-10 concerning exposure to an event that can be acknowledges as “traumatic” from the objective particularities of a situation, and criterium E in ICD-10, which defines that the traumatic symptoms and the clinical syndrome of PTSD have to develop within six months after the potentially traumatic event.
The current paper is a theoretical investigation of the impact our nature view has on sensitization towards climate change. Furthermore, it is suggested how psychology can contribute to a movement towards greater sensitization. The phenomenon is addressed through a historical investigation of the nature view based on the ideas of the Norwegian philosopher Hjalmar Hegge.
Autistic people experience stigmatization, a lower quality of life and have a high rate of suicide. This bachelor thesis examines whether understanding autism as neurodivergence has the potential to expand the action potence of autistic people. The potential is examined by using the critical psychology to analyse empirical studies.
Recently, a prominent Danish union boasted that the level of inequality in Denmark has become obscene (3F, 2019). To contribute with scientific, evidence-based conclusions to the above statement, this thesis will attempt to explore how the Danish population truly assess and prefer the distribution of wealth in Denmark.
The purpose of this study is to examine the mechanisms of carnism, specifically using social psychologist Melanie Joy, and to examine the belief system underneath this conceptualization of carnism as an ideology. Drawing on the work of existential psychiatrist and professor Irvin Yalom, the paper also sets out to understand how some individuals find meaning in the opposing ideologies veganism and vegetarianism.
This paper seeks out to explore the relationship between phenomenological philosophy and psychology in the light of a current debate about the legitimacy of phenomenological psychology, where it has been problematized whether or not the original phenomenological project is compatible with empirical sciences. One of the advocates for the incompatibility is the Husserl expert, Dan Zahavi, who argues, that phenomenology is limited to the domain of philosophy, whereas opponents such as Frederick Wertz argues, that phenomenological psychology and phenomenological philosophy are compatible and can contribute with insights to each other.
This thesis explores collective standards in relation to the possibilities of becoming a part of Danish society as a Dane with another ethnicity. I argue that collective standards should be grasped from a dialectical point of view where standards are created by subjects but at the same time creates subjects. This thesis is based on two theoretical perspectives: Semiotic Cultural Psychology and Critical Psychology.
This bachelor thesis examines the concept of stigmatization related to schizophrenia and its effects on the individual. It is explored how different understandings of schizophrenia can contribute to stigmatization.

This paper examines the contrasts between experimental social psychological approaches and ethnographic, interactionist approaches to nonverbal communication and intimacy in face-to-face interaction.
