The adaptive approach is one of the neo-Freudian theoretical views on the functioning and principles of the human psyche . This approach, along with the genetic one , was formulated by the English psychoanalyst in the early 1940s, in addition to Sigmund Freud’s original work on metapsychology [1] .
The adaptive approach postulates the impact on the human psyche of various psychosocial factors [2] . According to this approach, any decisions made by a person, even neurotic (as for example, a claim ), are based on the experience of the interaction of an individual with the environment [3] . In general terms, the adaptive point of view takes into account that a person never stops the process of adaptation to the environment (adaptation is derived as an integral part of existence in principle) - accordingly, the fact that individuals change under the influence of the physical and social environment is taken into account [4] .
