Nah. While they were decent theories a hundred years ago, most of his ideas have been shown to be pretty much junk science. For example, dreams are now thought of more as random stuff in your brain, rather than reflecting the inner subconscious of your hidden desires.\n\nAnother thing I disagree with is his extreme sexualization of behavior. For example, Freud believed that from the beginning of human life, we are sexual creatures, and actually labeled our stages of development as oral/anal/phallic/latent. Wow. He was also rather derogatory toward women, but that kinda fits with the attitude of that age.\n\nYet another problem is Freud studied mental patients, and then expected that their patterns of behavior would be similar to the general public. He did very little actual experimentation.\n\nOn the flip side, he really was the first to suggest a subconscious that we're not fully aware of, a very important idea even now. And he did practially establish the field, so we have to give him some credit :)

Wasn't able to find anything on how it started or when, but I found a couple of links where you might be able to get some more information.  I did find some speculation on it originating from Maypole dancing or tree dancing, but nothing solid.  Good luck.

Psychodynamic Theories\nMany psychologists have proposed theories that try to explain the origins of personality. One highly influential set of theories stems from the work of Austrian neurologist Sigmund Freud, who first proposed the theory of psychoanalysis. Collectively, these theories are known as psychodynamic theories. Although many different psychodynamic theories exist, they all emphasize unconscious motives and desires, as well as the importance of childhood experiences in shaping personality.\nSigmund Freud’s Theory of Psychoanalysis\nIn the late 1800s and early 1900s, Freud developed a technique that he called psychoanalysis and used it to treat mental disorders. He formed his theory of psychoanalysis by observing his patients. According to psychoanalytic theory, personalities arise because of attempts to resolve conflicts between unconscious sexual and aggressive impulses and societal demands to restrain these impulses.\nThe Conscious, the Preconscious, and the Unconscious\nFreud believed that most mental processes are unconscious. He proposed that people have three levels of awareness:\n\n    * The conscious contains all the information that a person is paying attention to at any given time.\n\nExample:\n\nThe words Dan is reading, the objects in his field of vision, the sounds he can hear, and any thirst, hunger, or pain he is experiencing at the moment are all in his conscious.\n\n    * The preconscious contains all the information outside of a person’s attention but readily available if needed.\n\nExample:\n\nLinda’s telephone number, the make of her car, and many of her past experiences are in her preconscious.\n\n    * The unconscious contains thoughts, feelings, desires, and memories of which people have no awareness but that influence every aspect of their day-to-day lives.\n\nExample:\n\nStan’s unconscious might contain angry feelings toward his mother or a traumatic incident he experienced at age four.\nFreud believed that information in the unconscious emerges in slips of the tongue, jokes, dreams, illness symptoms, and the associations people make between ideas.\nThe Freudian Slip\n\nCathy calls up her mother on Mother’s Day and says, “You’re the beast, Mom,” when she consciously intended to say, “You’re the best, Mom.” According to psychoanalytic theory, this slip of the tongue, known as a Freudian slip, reveals her unconscious anger toward her mother.\nThe Id, the Ego, and the Superego\nFreud proposed that personalities have three components: the id, the ego, and the superego.\n\n    * Id: a reservoir of instinctual energy that contains biological urges such as impulses toward survival, sex, and aggression. The id is unconscious and operates according to the pleasure principle, the drive to achieve pleasure and avoid pain. The id is characterized by primary process thinking, which is illogical, irrational, and motivated by a desire for the immediate gratification of impulses.\n    * Ego: the component that manages the conflict between the id and the constraints of the real world. Some parts of the ego are unconscious, while others are preconscious or conscious. The ego operates according to the reality principle, the awareness that gratification of impulses has to be delayed in order to accommodate the demands of the real world. The ego is characterized by secondary process thinking, which is logical and rational. The ego’s role is to prevent the id from gratifying its impulses in socially inappropriate ways.\n    * Superego: the moral component of personality. It contains all the moral standards learned from parents and society. The superego forces the ego to conform not only to reality but also to its ideals of morality. Hence, the superego causes people to feel guilty when they go against society’s rules. Like the ego, the superego operates at all three levels of awareness.\n\nConflict\nFreud believed that the id, the ego, and the superego are in constant conflict. He focu

Review from Amazon dot com:\n\n"Gottfredson and Hirschi's theory of crime commission rests upon basic mostly unstated assumptions about human nature that people are essentially born selfish and with the desires to seek out pleasure and avoid pain. It is only through socialization that we learn how to control these impulses and delay gratification, so we can seek pleasure through society's legitimate means and avoid harming others. It is no surprise that they develop their definition of crime around this idea: "acts of force or fraud undertaken in the pursuit of self-interest." (p. 15).\n\n"There are, of course, several things wrong with this definition. They examine in their book behavior that does not meet this definition, such as drug use (not an act of force or fraud, although it fits the normally-conceived definition of a "crime" as being "illegal"). Furthermore, not all crimes are undertaken in the pursuit of self-interest (or at least ONLY in self-interest), for example, altruistic crimes and civil disobedience.\n\n"While studies that have actually tested it show it to be an important theory, many use behavioral measures lack external validity: they measure low self-control with the dependent variable itself by saying we can recognize people who have low self-control by their crimes and vise versa. This is a circular argument. Other studies question whether self-control is truly stable throughout the life course, which is one of the major premises of the book.\n\n"It's an interesting conceptual idea, but the theory as laid out in this book alone is hardly the "general theory of crime."\n\nReviewer:\nK.

I have heard of the theory before, I wish I could remember the scientists name in the UK who proposed it. Well he may not have the one who proposed it but he was the one featured in the documentay. Its outlandish by most peoples standards, but its a very interesting theory. What I remember most about this gentleman is that he is so paranoid about what could he happening in parallel worlds with his own self that he is terrified to leave his house.....it has to do with every single thing we do affecting our parallel lives in other dimensions and realities.\n\nI would suggest looking it up on www.coasttocoastam.com George Nori and Art Bell touch on stuff like this all the time and have a lot of interesting guests that discuss it.\n\nI first read about parallel lives in a book by Dick Sutphen called "Unseen Influences". This book touches on how every thing affects our lives from processed foods to alien abductions and everything in between. You might want to have a look at that too.

At the moment no one knows.\n\nString theories are one attempts to combine Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity, which is what a unified theory is. Thus far no complete theory and no testable predictions have emerged. Perhaps they will in time, or from some of the alternatives like loop gravity.

If I may:  Often comes up in a discussion when you are proposing a hypothetical, or perhaps ready to demonstrate something...  "Oh, what do you mean, gravity exists everywhere?"  "If I may..."  and he proceeds up a latter and drops a book on the lady's head.  \n\nIf you will:  Getting someone to go along w/ the hypothetical.  "If you will, take this experiment as an example of how the whole world works."

There are various things that you might want to read about, horizon theory & donut theory might be a good place to start. Much as we once thought the world was flat and we'd fall off the edge, but then discovered that is was round when we sailed from one side of the world to the other the same is thought (by some) to also be true about the universe, you travel in a line for long enough, you start off where you left off!

"M" Theory is one current attempt at a Grand Unification Theory which reconciles the differences between Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity.  It is impossible to predict what applications could come from such a theory; it would certainly allow us to explain many, many things about our physical world that we do not understand now.  Such a theory may be a long way off, however.
