The Turn of the Screw by Henry James follows the story of a governess who takes care of the children Miles and Flora. The issue regarding the reliability of the governess as the narrator has been debated due to her “interactions” with the supernatural world. However, the governess is insane throughout The Turn of the Screw because the ghosts she sees are hallucinations; she shows irrational behavior towards the children; and she is obsessed with getting approval from others such as her employer and the children.

The model of the Five Competitive Forces, developed by Michael E. Porter, is based on corporate strategy, industry structure and the way they change. Porter has identified five competitive forces that shape every industry and every market and they determine the intensity of competition and hence the profitability and attractiveness of an industry.

It helps to analyze how the business itself is positioned relative to its competition and its competitive strength.

These defense mechanisms help me understand my personality in relation to how and why I express my emotions the way I do. I can think of various examples where I’ve used a defense mechanism and for the most part, I was doing them consciously and
