The purpose of Psychology science, separated from Philosophywas to examine human behavior. Sigmund Freud, the founder of Psychoanalysis, emphasized psychological factors and the role of the unconscious at the root of psychological problems. Many theorists who followed Freud adopted the Psychoanalytic perspective but they created their own theories as a result of their criticism and contributions. The main representatives of Psychodynamic theory are Sigmund Freud, Carl G. Jung, Alfred Adler, Karen Horney, Erich Fromm, Harry S. Sullivan and Erik H. Erikson.According to the concept of determinism in the psychodynamic approach, there is definitely a reason underlying human behavior. Thus, no behavior, emotion, or thought occurs randomly. Therefore, based on the results of human behavior, the reasons for the behavior can be reached. In this study, it was aimed to examine the psychodynamic foundations and causes of human behavior. Among the psychodynamic foundations of human behavior, it was observed that there were the concepts of conscious, unconscious, pre-conscious in Freud's topographical model, concepts of id, ego, superego in the structural personality model, motivation, drive, need, frustration, psychological trauma, anxiety and defense mechanisms.
