* Game 2, Round 2 - Science - Complexes Made Easy
In this round, we'll describe the psychological complex or its
suffferer, and you name it.
1. As per Greek mythology, an Oedipal or Oedipus complex involves
a male child with antipathy toward his father and attraction
for his mother. What is this affinity for the opposite-sex
parent called in girls?
2. Still drawing from the story of Oedipus, what psychological
complex is attached to a mother with an obsessive fixation on
her son?
3. A person with perceived physical shortcomings who compensates by
overachieving to an obsessive degree, particularly in leadership.
This psychological complex is taken from a historical figure.
4. This is the man who views women solely for pleasure. The termDon Juan complex
satyriasis is sometimes used to describe the complex. However,
the American Psychiatric Association describes it using the
name of a fictional Spaniard. Name that complex.
5. Another pathology named for a Greek myth, this was identified
in 1949 by the French philosopher Gaston Bachelard. It is
characterized by compulsively warning others of the consequences
of their behavior. A side-effect is an oversensitivity to
other people's grief.
6. This fairytale-based complex was described in 1981 by Colette
Dowling, who wrote about women who fear independence.
It describes women who feel incapable of changing their
situations without outside help, usually male. Think Disney
to describe this complex.
7. Dr. Fredric Wertham wrote the controversial 1954 book "Seduction
of the Innocent", about the malign effects of comic books on
children. One enduring complex he identified -- an unhealthy
and overriding desire to "save" others -- was named for a comic
book character. Name that complex.
9. This complex was first described by Freud as a man's inability
to maintain sexual arousal within a committed, loving
relationship. Men with this complex tend to compartmentalize all
women as either saintly or as prostitutes. Name that complex.
10. Not officially recognized by the psychoanalytic community, but
popular in pop-psychology, this complex refers to men who avoid
adult responsibility. You can call them slackers, or diagnose
them as sufferers of this kid-lit-inspired complex.
* Game 2, Round 3 - Entertainment - Song Titles that Become Movie Titles
Sometimes, a movie's title is the last thing on the to-do list.
And what's quicker than stealing the title of a hit song? These are
movies that did just that, from the '70s to the '90s. In each case,
give us the title of the song/movie.
1. Song by Hole; movie starring Megan Fox, 2009.
2. Song by The Cure; movie starring Hilary Swank, 1999.
3. Song by Bonnie Raitt; movie starring Julia Roberts, 1995.
4. Song by Bobby Vinton; movie starring Kyle McLachlan, 1986.
5. Song by The Searchers; movie starring Sandra Bullock, 1992.
6. Song by Psychedelic Furs; movie starring Molly Ringwald, 1986.
7. Song by The Temptations; movie starring Macaulay Culkin, 1991.
8. Song by Led Zeppelin; movie starring Matthew McConaughey, 1993.
9. Song by The Rolling Stones; movie starring Whoopi Goldberg, 1986.
10. Song by Creedence Clearwater Revival; movie starring Nick
Nolte, 1978.
* Game 2, Round 2 - Science - Complexes Made Easy
Hey, nobody said life was simple. Complexes -- the notion of
organizing the unconscious mind around a common theme -- were
used by Freud and Jung and are still diagnosed today.

book character. Name that complex.
8. Marked by an almost complete lack of self-worth, this
complex suggests feelings of failing to measure up to standards.
Sufferers can overcompensate with extreme achievement or act
out anti-socially. Name that complex, which was defined by
psychologist Alfred Adler.
9. This complex was first described by Freud as a man's inability
to maintain sexual arousal within a committed, loving

On each question you may give up to two answers, but if you give
both a right answer and a wrong answer, there is a small penalty.

based only on your own knowledge. (In your answer posting, quote
the questions and place your answer below each one.) I will reveal
the correct answers in about 3 days.
