Most of freud's ideas and contributions to psychology have been proved wrong and are no longer supported.

This isn't a huge secret either. nice try though

>> No.1314859

His contribution wasn't the actual theories, but that he got people thinking.

>> No.1314864

I'm just using his ideas to interpret literature, I don't care if they're worth anything to medical psychology.

>> No.1314875

and this is the only real use for him today.

Because so many writers used his shit to build their shit.
And because he had many of his ideas from literature.

His ideas are useful to medical psychology. A really basic example is the issue of he psychoanalyst being unable to separate their own selves from the therapy; it's essentially a form of experimenter effect. There's the whole idea of leading questions too. To think that such an emphasis would have been placed on these things in social research straight away is naive.
