The defence mechanism that figured prominently in the theory of Alfred Adler was compensation. Adler believed that individuals often feel inferior in some areas, and as a result, use compensation to make up for their perceived shortcomings. This can manifest as striving for achievement or status in other areas to compensate for what is lacking in the perceived weakness.
