Of the following, Adler most strongly emphasized

• A. The Creative Self
• B. The Id
• C. The Collective Unconscious
• D. The Ego

Answer: (A)

Adler centers on how individuals actively shape their lives through a creative self—the part of personality that selects goals, interprets events, and designs a unique style of life to achieve belonging and significance. This view emphasizes conscious choice and personal meaning, contrasting with Freud’s focus on instinctual drives (the id) and the ego as a mediator, and Jung’s idea of a collective unconscious shared across people. For Adler, behavior is guided by self-created aims and social connectedness rather than by underlying unconscious instincts or universal archetypes. So, the element Adler most strongly emphasized is the creative self.
