Chapter 1
Sigmund Freud and the School of
Psychoanalysis
• …most of what fills an individual’s mind
is unconscious and consists of
conflicting impulses, urges, and wishes
• People’s behavior is aimed at satisfying
these impulses – even though some may
be socially inappropriate or
unacceptable
• People often fool themselves about the
real motives for their behavior.
Main Assumptions – behaviourism
• Psychology as the behaviourist sees it is an
objective natural science.
• Psychology’s goal should be the prediction
and control of behaviour.
• It should study only those behaviours that can
be observed and measured.
• Psychology becomes the science of behaviour
rather than the science of minds or mental
life.
• There is no distinction between human and non-human
behaviour.
• This being the case, rats, pigeons, cats and dogs can
replace humans as experimental subjects.
• environmental factors
• focus on learning.
• reduced to simple Stimulus – Response reactions.
Transpersonal psychology
• Transpersonal psychology Is concerned with the
study of humanity’s highest potential, and with
the recognition, understanding, and realization of
unitized, spiritual, and transcendent states of
consciousness.
What is Humanistic Psychology
• Study of Psychology that focuses on the study of the whole
person.
• Look at behavior not only through eyes of observer, but
through eyes of person.
• Study the meanings, understandings, and experiences
involved in growing, teaching, and learning
• Study how people are influenced by their self-perceptions and
the personal meanings attached to their experiences.
• Focus on peoples responses to internal needs in shaping
behavior.
Humanism
Growth: generally
refers to changes in
size
Development:
occurs through
maturation of
physical &
mental capacities
& learning
Maturation
• Maturation is the process of learning to cope
and react in an emotionally appropriate way.
• part of growth and development.
• prepares them for the next stage
Development
The study of how people grow, mature, and change
over the life span
Two Major Ways to Conduct Research
Cross-sectional Studies
People of different ages are tested and
compared
Longitudinal Studies
The same people are tested at different times to
track changes related to age
Developmental stages
• Prenatal stage
 Germinal Period
 Embryonic Stage
 Fetal Stage
Developmental stages
• Postnatal stage
Infancy 0-2 years
Childhood 3- 11 years
Pre-adolescence 11 – 13 years
Adolescence 14 – 17 years
Adulthood 20 – 40 years
Middle- age 40 – 60 years
Old-age from 60 years onwards
Nature vs. Nurture
• Nature is that which is inherited / genetic and
its refers to an individual's innate qualities
(nativism).
• Nurture which refers to all environmental
influences after conception, i.e. personal
experiences (i.e. empiricism or behaviorism)
• His theory is a basis for broad or complex discussion
and analysis of personality and behavior, and also
for understanding and facilitating development – of
self and others.
• Each stage involves a “psychosocial crisis” of two
opposing emotional forces
INTRO TO THE 8 PSYCHOSOCIAL
STAGES OF DEVELOPMENT
• 2 DISPOSITIONS:
*SYNTONIC – POSITIVE
*DYSTONIC – NEGATIVE
• If both dispositions are not managed well, we may
develop MALADAPTATION & MALIGNANCY
• VIRTUES are being carried if a stage is managed well

Causes of forgetting
• “Forgetting is failing to retain to recall what has been
acquired “
- Nunn
• Lack of interest
• Disuse of activity
• Lapse of time
• interference
• Lack of reorganization
• Motivated forgetting
• Emotional disturbance
• Fatigue
Decay Theory
• It is a process of fading with the passage of time.
• Decay theory suggests that these traces
disintegrate over time if they are not reactivated
for use
- Only relevant to LTM
Interference theory
Motivated Forgetting
• Forgetting in LTM occurs because of a conscious
or unconscious desire to block out painful or
threatening memories
• Repression: Occurs unconsciously or without your
awareness
• Suppression: When you actively and consciously
attempt to put something out of awareness – you
could choose to remember it
Theory of consolidation
• Importance of undisturbed period for memory
traces to become durable and permanent.
• If the newly formed traces are disturbed and
no time is given for consolidation, they will be
wiped out.
• Motivation to learn
• Meaningful material
• SQ3R
• Spacing the learning period
• Recitation
• Over – learning
• Rhymes and logical associations
• Mnemonic devices
• Multisensory learning
• Periodical rest and sleep

Constructivism: focuses on knowledge
construction .It is a theory of knowledge that
argues that humans generate knowledge and
meaning from an interaction between their
experiences and their ideas
1. Create problems which has
value to students
2. Structure learning around primary
concepts
3. Seek and value student’s points of
views
4. Adapt curriculum to address student’s
suppositions
5. Assess learning in the context of
teaching

Unit -8 THINKING
Thinking is an implicit problem – solving behaviour
Mohsin (1967)
Thinking is a problem solving process in which we use
ideas or symbols in place
Glimer (1970)
• Divergent thinking
Thinking used to generate creative ideas by exploring many
possible solutions; spontaneous, unorganized thought.
• Convergent thinking
Thinking that involves following a series of logical steps with
the goal of arriving at the “correct” answer
• Reasoning
• Problem solving
• Sensing the problem
– Collecting and organizing data
– Formulating of hypothesis
– Verification & Evaluation of hypothesis
– Application and Generalization
• Meta cognition
– knowledge

Intelligence Definitions
Terman
An individual is intelligent in the proportion
that he is able to carry on abstract thinking.
Wechsler
Intelligence is the aggregate or global capacity
of an individual to act purposefully , to think
rationally and to deal effectively with the
environment.
According to Spearman (1904), all intelligent abilities have an area of
overlap, which he called (for “general”). Each ability also depends
partly on an s (for “specific”) factor.
4.84
Thorndike’s multifactor
Four attributes of Intelligence
• Level
It is refers to the difficulty of a task that can be solved
• Range
It is indicate the numbers of tasks at any given degree
of difficulty that we can solve
• Area
It is mean that the number of situations at each level to
which the individual is able respond
• Speed
• This is the rapidity with which an individual can
respond to items
Primary Mental Abilities(PMA)
• Space visualization
• Perceptual speed
• Numerical ability
• Verbal comprehension
• Word fluency
• Rote memory
• Reasoning
Guilford’s model of the structure of
Intellect
Gardner’s theory of Multiple
Intelligence
Human intelligence or cognitive competence can
be described as a set of an individual’s multiple
abilities, talents and mental skills related to a
multiple number of domains of knowledge in a
particular cultural settings
– Musical Intelligence
– Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence
– Logical-Mathematical Intelligence
– Linguistic Intelligence
– Spatial Intelligence
– Interpersonal Intelligence
– Intrapersonal Intelligence
– Naturalist Intelligence

CREATIVITY
Creativity is the power of the human mind to
create new contents by transforming relations
and thereby generating new correlates.
spearman (1931)
Creativity as the capacity or ability of an
individual to create, discover, or produce a new
or novel idea or object, including the
rearrangement or reshaping of what is already
known to him which proves to be a unique
personal experience.
Stages in the creative process
• Preparation : in this stage the problem is defined
and explained
• Incubation : this kind of deliberate or voluntary
turning away from the problem is the beginning
of the second stage.
• Illumination : during this stage, there is the
sudden appearance of the solution of the
problem .
• Verification : in this stage determine whether
the solution is the correct one or not.
Differences between
INTELLIGENCE CREATIVITY
• Convergent thinking.
• Stimulus free and often goes beyond
the data.
• Tradition and rules of logic deal are
following.
• Socially responses is possible.
• It is not essential for intelligent
person to be creative.
• in intelligence testing the speed and
accuracy of the cognitive behavior
is emphasized
• Divergent thinking.
• Searches for many possible responses
for a given stimulus.
• Originality is indentified.
• Allows as many responses as possible
• An adequate level of intelligence is a
necessary.
• In creative tests novelty , flexibility,
originality , fluency and elaboration
are emphasized.
Unit 9 Mental Health
• Mental health is the full and harmonies
functioning of the whole personality.
• Hadfield
• Mental health is the ability to adjust
satisfactorily to the various strains of the
environment we meet in life.

illness , the preservation of mental health and cure of
mental illness.
Aims
• Prevention of mental ill-health
• Preservation of the mental health
• Cure of individuals suffering from mental disorders
Mental health problems of children
• Mental Retardation : its defined as
significantly sub average general intellectual
functioning.
• Reading Disorder : Dyslexia . There is a serious
delay in learning to read.
• Autism : impairment in the ability to have
social and interpersonal interaction primarily
observer in children aged 2 and above
Attention deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD)
poor attention , hyperactivity & impulsivity
Conduct disorder : it is characterized by persistent and
significant pattern of conduct that breaks the rules of
the society.
Speech disorder : stammering is a disorder of speed that
of characterized by disturbed in the fluency and
Rhythm of speech.
Habit disorder : thumb sucking, nail biting, pulling out of
hair, teeth grinding etc.,
School phobia : an intensive fear towards the school and
there is persistent refusal by the child to go to school.
Eating disorders : aversion towards eating, there is
excessive eating, usually observed in adolescence.
Child rearing practices in India
• Female infanticide
• Denied medical care
• Sex-test
• Foetus abortion
• Hyper gamy and Dowry
• Deaths of young Brides
Mental Health in Indian Schools…
• Schools can enhance the nature and scope of
mental health interventions, fill gaps, enhance
effectiveness, address problems early, and
reduce stigma.
• Schools can positively impact educational
outcomes by ensuring that all students are
mentally & physically healthy
UCLA
Programs to improve mental health in schools also
• providing programs to promote social-emotional
development, prevent mental health and
psychosocial problems,
• providing programs and services to intervene as
early after the onset of learning, behavior, and
emotional problems as is feasible
UCLA
• building the capacity of all school staff to address
barriers to learning and promote healthy
development
• addressing systemic matters at schools that affect
mental health, such as high stakes testing
(including exit exams) ,engender bullying,
alienation, and student disengagement from
classroom learning
• school-community interventions to address
barriers to learning and promote healthy
development
• Learning Difficulties
The most common special needs you are likely to
find in your class are learning difficulties of
various types.
• Behaviour Difficulties
Many pupils do not conform to what we would
consider 'good' behaviour
• Physical Difficulties
Increasing inclusion has meant the removal of
barriers to access and this is encouraging more
parents to have their children educated in
mainstream schools alongside their peers.
MEANING OF INCLUSIVE EDUCATION
Inclusive education implies all young learners,
young people-with or without disabilities
being able to learn together through access to
common pre-schools and schools with an
appropriate network of support services.
