History of abnormal psychology
The historical development of Abnormal Psychology or Psychopathology is worth studying. The progressive as well as conservative steps have contributed to a balanced view of abnormal behavior.
Ancient history of abnormal psychology
Ancient societies often attributed abnormal behavior to demonic possession or anger from the gods. Exorcisms were a common treatment method. Hippocrates was influential in arguing for natural, biological causes of mental disorders rather than supernatural ones. He categorized disorders into mania, melancholy, and phrenitis and emphasized clinical observation and heredity. Later Greek and Roman physicians and philosophers like Plato and Aristotle further studied abnormal psychology concepts, though their work was sometimes lost to popular superstition.
Chapter 1
This chapter discusses the historical perspectives of abnormal behavior. It covers how abnormality has been defined and understood by ancient societies, Greek thinkers, medieval and Renaissance scholars. It also addresses the development of early asylums and reforms, as well as the foundation of modern abnormal psychology through researchers like Kraepelin and Freud. The chapter concludes by noting abnormal behavior results from both psychological and biological factors and can be studied scientifically while recognizing individual uniqueness.
Mental health
The document discusses the evolution of mental health treatment from ancient times to the present. It notes that ancient civilizations like the Greeks described and treated some disorders. In the Middle Ages, conceptions of madness were diverse. Asylums became more common in the 18th-19th centuries and expanded greatly in the 19th century industrial era. The 20th century saw developments like psychoanalysis and new psychiatric medications. Dorthea Dix helped reform the system in the mid-19th century by advocating for more humane treatment in asylums.
History and Background Of Psychology - Basic Introduction
Wilhelm Wundt is considered the founder of modern psychology. In 1879, he opened the first laboratory dedicated to psychological research at the University of Leipzig in Germany, marking the start of psychology as a scientific field. Wundt is often referred to as the "father of psychology". Some other important figures in early psychology include William James, who established a similar lab at Harvard in 1879, and Sigmund Freud, who developed psychoanalysis.
Brief History of psychology
The history of psychology began with early philosophical thinkers in ancient Greece and India. In the late 19th century, Wilhelm Wundt established the first psychology laboratory in Germany, marking the advent of modern scientific psychology. Early 20th century schools of thought included psychoanalysis, behaviorism, and Gestalt psychology. Since the 1950s, cognitive science has used multi-disciplinary techniques to study the mind. Major developments over time include the transition from philosophy to an independent science, the emergence of applied fields, and paradigm shifts between structuralism, functionalism, behaviorism, and the cognitive revolution.
Major psycho theories
This document provides an overview of major psychological theories, including:
1. Structuralism - Focused on analyzing the basic elements of conscious experience through introspection. Pioneered by Wundt and Titchner.
2. Psychoanalysis - Developed by Freud, focuses on discovering unconscious meanings and motivations to change problematic behaviors. Includes concepts like the id, ego, superego, and defense mechanisms.
3. Behaviorism - Known as the learning perspective, believes all behaviors can be explained by stimuli and responses. Includes theories of classical and operant conditioning from Pavlov, Watson, Skinner, and others.
4. Gestaltism - Developed in response to structural

Mental Health: A Contrastive Analysis between Western and Islamic Psychologie...Mohd Abbas Abdul Razak
Advancement in the way of life and urbanization has brought many great changes in the psychological well-being of people in many parts of the world. Driven by the need to be materially affluent has pushed people in the urban to unnecessary stress, anxiety, conflict, dilemma and a whole lot of other adverse psychological state of mind. Due to these psychological problems, at times, people mainly living in the cities respond in a negative way without considering the religious and ethical principles in life. In the light of this situation, this small scale research would like to explore the concept of mental health held by some selected schools in the Western mainstream psychology and Islamic psychology. It is hoped that a proper understanding of the concept of mental health and its maintenance could help people to lead a meaningful life: finding peace and harmony within themselves and in the external surrounding.Islamic Psychology

Islamic Psychology and the Call for Islamization of Modern Psychology (Journa...Mohd Abbas Abdul Razak
The shifting of paradigms in modern psychology has left modern men in a state
of confusion on the issues pertaining to what should be the paramount concern
of psychology and in the proper understanding on the topic of human nature. In a contrastive manner Islamic psychology which has been promoted by Muslim
scholars alongside with the process of Islamization of knowledge and education, has its roots in the philosophical ideas of early Muslim scholars. Its resurgence, which started some two decades ago, is seen as an initiative to introduce Islamic understanding on man to the conflicting ideas prevalent in modern psychology. Its approach, which is mainly philosophical in nature, goes back to the ideas on
man mentioned in the two primary sources of Islam, the Qur’an and Hadith. Islamic psychology with its comprehensive ideas on human nature has been seen by Muslim scholars as a new perspective in psychology that can fill in the lacunae present in the modern psychological thoughts on man, and clears the mist that surrounds most Western theories on man. This paper represents anattempt to analyze and also synthesize Western psychology and Islamic psychology in terms of their nature, development, contributions, and problems.Nursing history by roheeda riaz khan

Lin Yutang (Lín Yǔtāng, 林语堂), 1895-1976, was a renowned Chinese philosopher, philologist, translator, political spokesperson, inventor, novelist and interpreter of Chinese culture for Western readers.
His struggle to accommodate his cultural heritage of Confucianism, Taoism and Chinese folklore with his Christian properly basic beliefs lasted almost a half-a-century.
Ironically, during this period, while he became the darling of American readers, his writing suffered condemnation in China for his anti-communist stance.
Following the demise of Deng Xiaoping’s influence in the mid-1990s, Lin has once again become popular in China including the production of a 44 episode television series in Hong Kong based on his novel Moment in Peking.
Lin’s books, The Importance of Living and From Pagan to Christian bear witness to his faith dilemma whilst his speeches on ‘The Chinese Cultural Heritage’, ‘Materialism As a Faith’ and ‘Chinese Humanism and the Modern World’ impart a wisdom forgotten by both Eastern and Western cultures in their race to embrace materialist values.
This paper focuses on these three speeches to give insight into the impact of religion on one prominent East Asian person without making assumptions about the effect of religion on East Asia as a whole.

This document discusses the influence of occultism and mythology on modernist literature, using W.B. Yeats as an example. It explains that many modernist writers, including Yeats, incorporated occult themes and imagery from ancient myths into their works to escape the sterility of modern rational thought. Yeats was a member of occult societies and incorporated these beliefs into his poetry. The document analyzes Yeats' poem "The Two Trees" to demonstrate his occult influences. It argues that supernaturalism continues to inspire writers regardless of social trends away from superstition.

The document summarizes developments in the early 20th century. It discusses how World War I transformed the world and led to advances in science, communication, and psychology. Reform efforts protected workers' rights and introduced pensions and an 8-hour workday. Women began advocating for voting rights. New ideas from Freud, Einstein, Bergson, and James challenged previous conceptions of the human mind, time, and reality. Literature evolved to reflect these new perspectives through techniques like stream of consciousness. Overall, the early 20th century was a time of rapid change, uncertainty, and anxiety as old values were questioned.

brevity Philosophy: A Very Short Introduction addresses many of the
central philosophical questions in an engaging and thought-provoking

works of philosophy and provides expert guidance for those who want
to read the original works themselves. Edward Craig is already famous
as the editor of the best long work on philosophy (the Routledge
Encyclopedia); now he deserves to become even better known
as the author of one of the best short ones.’
