This revision concerns primarily the biological origin of the Oedipus complex, classically understood as an inherited . However, a reconceptualization of the origin of what Freud called the also has consequences for understanding its nature. A review of current knowledge relevant to the biological mechanisms of inheritance and the type of memory system that Freud had in mind, and a review of modern instinct theory, suggests that the Oedipus complex is not an innate predisposition but rather the almost inevitable outcome of a combination of simpler biological processes.
本次修订主要涉及俄狄浦斯情结的生物学起源，经典观点认为它是一种遗传现象。然而，对弗洛伊德所称的“本能”的起源进行重新概念化，也会对理解其本质产生影响。对与遗传的生物学机制以及弗洛伊德所设想的记忆系统类型相关的现有知识的回顾，以及对现代本能理论的回顾表明，俄狄浦斯情结不是一种先天倾向，而是更简单的生物学过程组合的必然结果。
