Abstract:
Understanding the human psyche is one of the important subjects, and throughout history philosophers and psychologists have sought to answer the question of what kinds of relations exist among the different parts of the human psyche. The present study aims to answer this question within the thought of Allameh Misbah Yazdi. To this end, numerous works of Allameh Misbah Yazdi were examined, and the texts related to this subject were analyzed through content analysis. The findings of the study indicate that, in total, six structural relations among psychological concepts can be identified in the thought of Allameh Misbah Yazdi: 1. Hierarchical relation, in a pyramidal form. 2. Interactive relation, referring to the existence of connections among different parts. 3. Conflictual relation, referring to the struggle and competition among several constructs. 4. Feedback relation, meaning the reactive effect of some constructs on their preceding components. 5. Contextual relation, referring to the role of certain constructs as groundwork or capacity for other parts. 6. Moderating relation, referring to the control of the effect of certain variables by specific constructs. In conclusion, it can be claimed that, from the perspective of Allameh Misbah Yazdi, the structural relations of the human psyche constitute a multidimensional systemic framework in which complex and diverse interrelations exist among the different parts of the psyche.
