| Introduction | In psychology, displacement is a subconscious defense mechanism whereby the mind redirects affects from an object felt to be dangerous or unacceptable to an object felt to be safe or acceptable.Displacement operates the mind subconsciously and involves emotions, ideas, or wishes being transferred from their original object to a more acceptable substitute. It is most often used to allay anxiety. In scapegoating, aggression is displaced onto people with little political power, such as minority-group members. Displacement can act in a chain-reaction, with people unwittingly becoming both the victim and perpetrator of displacement.Though displacement is usually used to refer to the displacement of aggressive impulses, it can also refer to the displacement of sexual impulses.
