Question

"An offender who wants to kill his mother, but instead kills a woman who looks like him is practicing which one of Freud's defense mechanisms" who is the perpetrator?

Answer 1

The answer to the question is displacement. Displacement is one of Freud's defense mechanisms and involves redirecting emotions, thoughts, and impulses away from the original target onto a less threatening alternative. In this case, the offender has redirected their desire to kill their mother onto an innocent woman who looks like them. The perpetrator of the crime is the offender.
