Psychological Terms – Anal Triad
​A set of three adult personality tendencies--
  1. orderliness,
  2. parsimony, and
  3. obstinacy--
    associated with incomplete resolution of anal-stage conflicts.
    First described by Freud in “Character and Anal Erotism” (1908), they are sometimes summarized as the “three Ps”:
    – pedantry
    – parsimony
    – petulance
    These tendencies reflect the lingering influence of early struggles involving control, retention, and expression, and are linked conceptually to features of obsessive-compulsive personality organization.
