Answer:

The answer is reaction formation.

Explanation:

Reaction formation refers to a defense mechanism through which a person thinks that his or her feelings as well as desires are unacceptable for other people. Thus, the person tries to convince people or even him or her that the right side is the opposite. The person usually does this through an exaggerated performance.

People that use this technique usually perceive things regarding binary opposition, it means that these people only consider that things are either good or bad, there is any aspect between them. This makes people inflexible. An example of reaction formation is when there is a teenager that knows that he or she is gay, but he or she sees the necessity of hiding his or her homosexuality because in his or her family this condition is seeing as a serious sin.

Yakvenalex [24]
In 1879, psychology began as a science of its own in Germany with the formation of Wundt’s psychology laboratory. He industrialized the technique of objective introspection. Titchener, a pupil of Wundt, brought psychology in the form of structuralism to America. Structuralism died out in the early twentieth century. William James suggested a countering point of view called functionalism, which stressed the way the mind permits us to familiarize. While, functionalism influenced the contemporary fields of educational psychology, evolutionary psychology, and industrial/organizational psychology.

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer: ''Life is not fair'' truism

Explanation:

Truism is referring to some statement that is clearly true and evident, it often sounds foolish and it is used in situation of irony. Since it is evident, it don't need evidence or description.

Examples of truism that we see often:

The apple never falls far from the tree.

An apple a day keeps the doctor away.

A friend in need is a friend indeed.

Life is not fair.

  • I will give you an example of ''Life is not fair'' truism.

This truism is worth defending because in some situation it is not considered as truism because it is up to people and ideas that they are having about life. It can be true or false. It is challenging because it depend on people and their situations or positions.

My experience is considering that this truism is not worth saying because life has numerous of situations for us and we are not always seeing some fair things that are happening. It always can be worst and if we always repeating that ''Life is not fair'' it will give us negative emotions which is not good.
