and as an individual, or the learn of the creative process, or the learn of types and psychological laws that exist in literary works, or, finally , the effect of literature on the reader or the psychology of the audience.
So the psychology of literature is the things that can be taken from literary works to be an example of someone's unhealthy state of Literature and psychology are interrelated in life because both have functions in this life.
The psychological approach is very important in the research of a literary work.
Because both of them deal with human issues as individual creatures and social beings.
Both of them utilize the same foundation, namely making human experience as Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theory contributed greatly to literary psychology research.
With the psychological aspects.
In this research, the researcher used the theory of psychoanalysis by Sigmund Freud to examine personality, the power of love, and external conflicts in Pachel Ward's novel Numbers.
Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theory was chosen because researchers consider this theory relevant for analyzing personality, the power of love and external conflicts experienced by Jemma in Pachel Ward's novel Numbers.
According to Freud, the soul has three levels preconscious, and unconscious.
The most famous concept of Freud's theory is that there is a subconscious that controls most behavior.
addition, he also gave a statement that human behavior is based on sexual desire .
which is initially felt by humans since childhood from their Freud became interested in and studied hypnosis in France, then used it to help people with mental illness.
Freud later abandoned hypnosis after he succeeded in using new methods to treat sufferers of psychological distress, namely free association and dream analysis.
The basis for creating this method comes from the concept of the subconscious.
Free association is a method used to uncover problems that are suppressed by one's self but continue to push out unconsciously, causing problems, whereas dream analysis is used by Freud from his understanding that dreams are messages from the abstract subconscious to the These messages contain desires, fears, and various kinds of other emotional activities that are completely unconscious.
unconscious anger because it is suppressed by someone.
When these subconscious problems have been successfully uncovered, the next solution will be easier to Freud is a prominent figure related to his opinions in the field of psychology.
Many of the terms are used by the public, for example: ego, super ego, and the Oedipus According to Freud, the three main parts of personality are the id, ego and super Id (Respect your own desire.
The id is located in the human unconscious which is the reservoir of pulses and a source of psychic energy.
Freud likened the id to a king or The id treats itself as an absolute ruler, to be respected, spoiled, arbitrary and selfish.
Whatever the id wants must be achieved or The id has nothing to do with reality or reality.
The working principle of the id is related to pleasure, or always seeks pleasure and always avoids discomfort.
The id is an attitude or behavior at will, selfish, wanting pleasure for oneself, whatever one wants will be done without thinking about the side effects.
For example:
Me.
I like to be my own.
I like to find the place where nobody is where I don't have to look at anyone, where I don't have to see their numbers.
Numbers .
From the sentence above it can be analyzed that Jemma expressed his wish.

I like to be my own.
She does not like going to crowded places because he does not want to burden himself by seeing the numbers in the eyes of someone he Even though she needs to integrate with other people.
Jemma chooses to prioritize her To avoid everyone as a child.
Jemma did not like playing with other children because she did not want them to see the death rate of her Here he gives his Id to do it.
Jemma always likes places where there are no people, no crowds, places where she does not have to see anyone even though she knows that living in the world definitely requires someone and will meet people but she avoids crowds as much as possible.

adheres to the reality principle by trying to fulfill human pleasures which are limited by reality or The working principle of the ego is related to the main mental functions such as logic, solving problems by making a decision.
The ego is the mediator between the id and the super ego.
The ego is thought to serve three areas, namely the outside world, the superego, and the id.
Its job is to find a balance between desire and reality while fulfilling the id and superego.
The ego is driven by the id and limited by the superego.

The day arrived when the spider would end, its last day.
Jemma blamed herself because that day had come, she did not want to lose Spider so she blamed herself for every death she had ever Jemma felt that if she died there would be no numbers and Spider would not die today.

He wanted to commit suicide by freefalling and jumping from the roof of the church so that if he fell below his body would be torn apart.
His ego arises from his unpreparedness to lose the spider and his feelings of blaming himself for every death of someone when he sees their death toll.
Super egos .
hink about other peopl.
Part of the super ego lies in the conscious part and part of the super ego lies in the According to Freud, super ego refers to morals in personality.
The super ego is the conscience that knows good and bad values.
The super ego's goal is perfection.
Because the super ego includes the personal ego, spiritual goals, and the relationship with conscience.
The superego works in opposition to the id because it tries to act in a socially appropriate way.
For example:
My head was still trying to take it all in.
couldn't look here in the eye, either.
She'd asked me to look after him.
she'd trusted me with him.
And I'd let her down.
Numbers .
From the sentence above, it can be analyzed that Jemma feels guilty towards Spider's Because he could not keep Spider alive even though he knew when Spider would Jemma could not look Spider's grandmother in the eye because of her feelings of guilt even though Jemma's soul was really shaken by Spider's departure forever.
Even so.
Jemma still thinks about Spider's grandmother's feelings because she thinks the reason Spider left was because of her.
Jemma's superego arises from thinking about Spider's grandmother's feelings due to Spider's departure forever.
My head was still trying to take it all in.
I could not look here in the eye, either.

The external conflict experienced by Jemma in the novel.
In the aspect of Jemma personality in the novel, 7 pieces of data were found, namely, 3 pieces of ID.
Jemma Id drive occurs because he can see numbers in someone's eyes.
The numbers are the date, month and year of a person's death.
So it makes you always want to be alone so you don't meet other Ego has 2 data.
Jemma ego arises because he thinks about wanting to be alone and away from other people, but basically every human being always needs other humans.
Jemma superego has 2 pieces of data.
Jemma superego arises from thinking about what happened to all the people he saw, the death rates of those people.
In terms of the strength of love that Jemma experiences, it arises because of his relationships with fellow humans, which results in feelings of affection for himself and others.
The form of power of love that Jemma feels is the power of brotherly love.
This form of power of love arises from feelings of affection, care, respect and a sense of responsibility towards other people such as Spider.
Val.
Karen and others.
Love for oneself arises from wanting to make oneself happy or save His love for eros or sexuality arose because his love for Spider and wanting to own Spider began when he and Spider started to become very good friends and were always together often so that as a human Jemma had lust for the opposite sex.

IV CONCLUSION
Based on the results of the analysis in the discussion chapter.
Jemma is a round character because he plays many roles in the novel Numbers by Rachel Ward.
The numbers that Jemma finds when looking into someone's eyes are the date, month and year of that person's death.
Since he was little.
Jemma has had this disorder that makes him so unique.
Jemma's personality always thinks that he is the cause of someone's death because he can see when someone dies.
Everyone must have a disorder and it is up to the person to believe in their disorder or not.
The strength of Jemma's love arises because there is someone who is able to make him comfortable with all his strengths and weaknesses.
Someone who is able to get Jemma out of his comfort zone who is able to bring Jemma to meet lots of people.
Usually Jemma does not like crowds or meeting people.
This makes Jemma communicate a lot with someone, giving rise to feelings of love.
These feelings include love for siblings, self-love, motherly love, eros or sexual love or love for one's partner, and also feelings of love for God.
It is very important for every human being to learn moral messages.
Through the novel Number by Rachel Ward, we can learn many moral values about the importance of respecting all humans.
We also know that we do not live alone in this world, every human being born into this world definitely has their own advantages and If we have shortcomings or advantages that other people do not have, then we should be grateful for what we have.
Do not try to isolate yourself and not want to meet other Humans have their own fears and all of these fears are very different from one person to No matter how bad someone is, we should associate with him.
Mothers should love their children because these children are very valuable.
People who are addicted to drugs or other prohibited things should stay away from these things because they are very detrimental to Always remember each other's God and do not forget to involve our God in every step we take.
Do not ever think about ending your life because you are afraid of losing someone, every human being has their own ending.
