Side A ------ Side B Compensation ------ Process by which a person makes up for a deficiency in his image of himself by strongly emphasizing some other feature that he regards as an asset. Denial ------ Avoidance of disagreeable realities by ignoring or refusing to recognize them; probably simplest and most primitive of all defense mechanisms. Displacement ------ Shift of emotion from a person or object toward which it was originally directed to another usually neutral or less dangerous person or object. Identification ------ Process by which a person tries to become like someone he admires by taking on thoughts, mannerisms or tastes of the individual. Introjection ------ Intense type of identification in which a person incorporates qualities or values of another person or group into his own ego structure. It is one of the earliest mechanisms of the child; important in formation of conscious. Isolation ------ Splitting off of emotional components of a thought which may be temporary or long-term. Projection ------ Attributing one's own thoughts or impulses to another person. Through this process once can attribute his own intolerable wishes, emotional feelings or motivations to another person. Rationalization ------ Offering a socially acceptable or apparently logical explanation to justify or make acceptable otherwise unacceptable impulses, feelings, behaviors and motives. Reaction Formation ------ Development of conscious attitudes and behavior patterns that are opposite tow hat one really feels or would like to do. Regression ------ Retreat in face of stress to behavior characteristics of any earlier level of development. Repression ------ Involuntary exclusion of a painful or conflictual though, impulse or memory from awareness. It is primary ego defense and other mechanisms tend to reindorce it. Sublimation ------ Acceptance of a socially approved substitute goal for a drive whose normal channel of expression is blocked. Suppression ------ A process often listed as a defense mechanism, but it is really a conscious analog of repression. It is intentional exclusion of material from consciousness. At times it may lead to subsequent repression. Undoing ------ Act or communication that partially negates a previous one; primitive defense mechanism.
