Psychoanalysis aims to change a person's personality through the study of the unconscious mind. Psychoanalysis was founded in the early 1890s by the Austrian neurologist Sigmund Freud. Psychoanalysis promotes awareness of unconscious, maladaptive and habitually recurring patterns of emotion and behavior, allowing previously unconscious aspects of the self to integrate and promoting optimal functioning, healing and creative expression. Current psychoanalytic models are continuously improved and reviewed by analytical experience, clinical outcomes and ongoing research. The research thesis should explore one or more aspects of psychoanalysis.
