My brother is so lazy; he is really smart, but he does nothing but play video games all day.
Psychoanalytic approaches – Freud The brother is focused of satisfying himself in playing video games (id). Id as we know is the pleasure seeking principle that needs immediate gratification and satisfaction. If the id is not satisfied, it creates an inner turmoil in a person. this turmoil can cause aggression and can develop maladaptive behavior in a person.
Humanistic approaches – Rogers’ person-centred theory Roger's believe in the concepts of change and self-actualization. The brother in this case is not conscious enough to work and bring modifications to this bad habit. To be able to achieve self actualization, the person involve needs to make certain adjustments to their current state of life. In the brother's case, he can do chores at home or do homework instead of wasting his time playing video games.
