Which psychologists is considered to be the founder of Psychoanalysis?

Alfred Adler
Jean Piaget
Carl Jung
Sigmund Freud

The correct answer is: Sigmund Freud

Sigmund Freud is recognized as the founder of Psychoanalysis due to his groundbreaking work in this field, including the development of concepts such as the unconscious mind, defense mechanisms, and psychosexual development. Alfred Adler, Jean Piaget, and Carl Jung were all prominent psychologists in their own right, but their theories and contributions differ from Freud's approach to Psychoanalysis. Therefore, they are not considered the founder of this specific field of psychology.
