Subject: eclectic theoretical orientation

Once I read the first line of the section titled Freud’s Theory, I became very skeptical. I wonder how much credible work one can find using abnormal patients as subjects. Then, I asked myself what was a normal patient. Freud seems to be an odd fellow, but I believe he makes an excellent point with the psychosexual stages. I do find the Oedipus complex extremely odd but not out of the realm of possibilities. I especially like Vygotksy’s theory. I like the incorporation of social interaction and culture into the cognitive development. The more I read, I began to feel that I could be sold just about anything dealing with development. This is why I am 100% with the eclectic theoretical orientation.
