Did  Freud’s training as a physician or his interest in psychoanalysis appear to exert the greater influence on his view of the mind-body relationship? Why?

Sigmund Freud was a revolutionary figure in the field of psychology, as his work focused on psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic concepts. Freud’s theory of psychosexual development explored how unconscious processes shape human behavior, emphasizing the importance of libido, pleasure-seeking and self-preservation. He also developed the concept of the ego, id, and superego to explain how conscious and unconscious motivations interact with one another. Though he was a physician by training, it is unclear whether his medical background or his interest in psychoanalysis had more influence on his views of the mind-body relationship.
