character armour |
|
A concept suggested by the PSYCHOANALYST Wilhelm Reich that to protect his EGO, an individual can put up a powerful front which dominates his whole PERSONALITY. For example, disguising hatred as love in dealing with a spouse or parent. Reich regarded the piercing of this armour as a key task for PSYCHOANALYSIS. See also REACTION FORMATION. |
