Abstract:
Personality development theory starts from the physiological needs of individuals,proposes the"two-part personality structure"with"subconscious"and"consciousness"as the subject,and then deduces the"three-part personality structure"with"id,ego,and superego"as the subject.Based on this framework,an instinctive personality dynamics schema was constructed to explore the causes of self-imbalance.Taking these as a foothold,the paper deduced the formation of moral injury from the personality dynamic schema,found the moral anxiety from the self-contradiction of ego,id,and superego,as well as deduced the representation form of moral injury based on Freud's"anxiety".Furthermore,the differences in individual personality development are introduced into the study of moral injury to distinguish between anxiety and guilt in the symptoms of moral injury,in order to better understand moral trauma.
