Abstract

This study investigates biological interactions and social structures within psychological frameworks in different manifestations of dominance and suppression classifying into conscious, subconscious, and unconscious mind states by looking at empirical research and theoretical models. This paper then details their mechanisms and impacts on individual and group behavior by looking into intentional, semi-intentional, and non-intentional mechanisms, respectively. This study explores the role that dominance and suppression play in forming social and biological hierarchies as well as individual psychologies, in addition to outlining the traits and outcomes of each type. The results are intended to advance knowledge of power relations in various contexts and offer new perspectives on the advantages and disadvantages of dominance and suppression.
