CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Sigmund Freud divided human consciousness into three levels of awareness: the conscious, preconscious, and unconscious.

Detailed explanation-2: -Preconscious: This refers to something that one is not currently aware of but could be brought into consciousness at any given moment. For example, someone may forget to grab cheese during a grocery trip until they see a sign that advertises a half-off cheese sale.

Detailed explanation-3: -The preconscious consists of anything that could potentially be brought into the conscious mind. The conscious mind contains all of the thoughts, memories, feelings, and wishes of which we are aware at any given moment. This is the aspect of our mental processing that we can think and talk about rationally.

Detailed explanation-4: -Sigmund Freud developed the concept of the preconscious to characterize ideas, memories, and beliefs that are unconscious at a particular moment, but are not repressed. These thoughts can be accessed through careful examination of a person’s psyche, most often through psychotherapy.
