Question:
Which of the following level of consciousness includes mental activity that people are unaware of?
Options:
Unconscious
Preconscious
Conscious
Ego
Correct Answer:
Unconscious
Explanation:
Freud’s theory considers the sources and consequences of emotional conflicts and the way people deal with these. In doing so, it visualises the human mind in terms of three levels of consciousness. The first level is conscious, which includes the thoughts, feelings and actions of which people are aware. The second level is preconscious, which includes mental activity of which people may become aware only if they attend to it closely. The third level is unconscious, which includes mental activity that people are unaware of.
