Man..I have to write a 6 page research paper on Freud Psychoanalysis versus Jung's Neopsychoanalytic theories, and there is so much information out there, I am just lost on its highways! Any ideas how I can begin to prepare to set up this complicated paper without failing? Thanks a Lot!

Start with a thesis question and work from there. Something like, "While Sigmond Freud and Karl Jung are simliar in some aspects of their theories, they also each possess their own unique characteristics....." Talk a little more about this then, still in the Introductory paragraph, list the three topics you will be discussing: Freud's basic theory, Jung's basic theory, and a comparison paragraph. Then reword the introductory paragraph, summing up your points. Focus w/ Freud on the Id, Ego, Superego, the importance of childhood, and his stages of developement (oral, ect....). Jung is actually pretty cool - you can focus on the "Collective Unconscious" and you'll be golden!!

Have a look at Wikipedia & Google; they should have short descriptions; basically, Freud was into the psychosexual side of things, going from early chlidhood, but Jung stressed the collective unconscious and Gestalt. Both had elements that are still relevant today, but only to a limited degree. That should give you an idea of where to start, but others would have tried this, so go your own way from there and try to be original, or at least use your own words; don't plagiarise!

´Freud was a fact and factor person who focused on fact through scientific methods.
Jung was a dreamer and believed in the imagination as valuable insight into reality.
You have an interesting topic. Probably a good avenue would be to find an integrative avenue where both contribute and help understand activities on the psychological level where within that activity some interesting moments that to this day find solution only through a study of all the relative sciences. Good luck. Wish I could be more help.

look into Wikipedia & Google; they might prefer to have short descriptions; particularly, Freud grew to alter into into into the psychosexual portion of themes, going from early chlidhood, yet Jung under pressure the collective unconscious and Gestalt. the two had components that are nonetheless ideal in the well-known, yet in actuality to a constrained degree. that would prefer to offer you a concept of the beginning factor, yet others might have tried this, so bypass your guy or lady way from there and attempt to be unique, or a minimum of use your guy or lady words; do no longer plagiarise!

I would map it out first, perhaps with a venn diagram or other chart you can use to compare them. You probably want to have a code that indicates which facts are from which sources. Then it should be easier to see the important information and you can concentrate on that, and already know which sources you need.
