Unconscious forces must be dominant for the emotionally healthy middle-aged person.

The statement is incorrect. Emotional health in middle age is typically characterized by a greater awareness and understanding of one's thoughts, feelings, and behavior, including those that may be rooted in unconscious processes. Individuals who are emotionally healthy in middle age are more likely to have developed coping mechanisms and strategies that allow them to better manage their emotions and navigate life's challenges. While unconscious forces may still influence behavior, they are not necessarily dominant for the emotionally healthy individual.
