Question 7

Julian is 31 years old and experiences persistent adult anxiety. His colleagues notice that he constantly chews on the plastic caps of his pens until they crack, and his home is obsessively neat, with every object arranged in strict alphabetical and chronological order; he experiences intense distress if anything is slightly misplaced. Furthermore, Julian has a deep-seated suspicion of older male authority figures, leading to repeated conflicts with his managers at work.

Use your knowledge of psychic determinism to explain Julian's behaviour.
