Psychology and Psychotechnics

Nurtdinova, L. R. Limitation of Karen Horney’s psychological conception.

Abstract: All Karen Horney’s theoretical developments are based on the concepts of the unconscious and conflicting nature of relations between society and a personality. Neo-Freudians already tried to explain the social order of people’s lives on the ground of the basic ideas of her philosophy. The article shows that Horney’s representation of Freud’s ideas were not always adequate and unprejudiced. Her conclusions about self-analysis seem rather controversial. According to the author, she had serious difficulties in her clinical practice, too.
