Psychoanalytic perspectives and similarities to alternative views on personality.

1) How do the ideas about evolution in the species parallel Freud's ideas about the evolution of personality in the individual.

2) How does the psychoanalytic perspective and the self-regulation view resemble each other in that the notion of a hierarchy of control echoes psychoanalytic theory's three components of personality.

3) How does work from the cognition viewpoint on unconscious influences result in concepts that resemble, in some ways, those postulated years earlier by Freud.
