The document discusses various aspects of the scientific method used by psychologists to study behavior and mental processes. It explains that intuition and common sense can be inaccurate, while a scientific approach using steps like asking questions, constructing hypotheses, experimentation, analysis and communication of results can provide more reliable insights. Some examples discussed include how hindsight bias and overconfidence can affect perceptions, and the importance of objectively observing and describing behavior systematically through methods like case studies, surveys and naturalistic observation.
1. Educational psychology is the branch of psychology concerned with the scientific study of human learning. It involves studying cognitive development, learning processes, and factors that influence learning.
2. Many consider philosopher Johann Herbart as the father of educational psychology. Pioneers like William James, John Dewey, and Jean Piaget made significant contributions to the field and studied topics like learning theories and cognitive development.
3. The field has grown significantly since the late 1800s when psychology first emerged as a science. Early contributors included Francis Galton, G. Stanley Hall, and Edward Thorndike who studied intelligence testing and learning. Present-day educational psychologists still apply the work of scholars like Benjamin Bloom on learning tax
Sigmund Freud was an Austrian neurologist who founded the psychoanalytic school of psychology. He lived from 1856 to 1939, originally working as a doctor in Vienna but later leaving for London after the Nazi takeover of Austria. Freud developed theories about the unconscious mind and how unconscious desires influence behaviors and relationships. He proposed that personality comprises the id, ego, and superego and is influenced by psychosexual development through childhood stages. Freud's work revolutionized the study and understanding of human psychology.

1) Psychodynamic therapies focus on accessing the unconscious mind through techniques like free association, word association, and dream interpretation.
2) The psychodynamic approach believes that psychological disorders stem from unconscious conflicts, often related to unresolved issues from childhood. Treatments therefore aim to reveal the unconscious and lift defense mechanisms.
3) Key psychodynamic treatments include psychoanalysis, which uses free association, word association, and dream analysis to gain insight into unconscious material from childhood. Psychoanalysis can be an effective long-term therapy but also carries risks of planting false memories.
Relationship between emotional intelligence and social IntelligenceNatansh Dubey
This document discusses a study exploring the relationship between emotional intelligence and social intelligence. The study hypothesized a positive relationship between the two constructs. It involved surveying 100 business students across 10 items measuring emotional intelligence and 10 measuring social intelligence. Results found a high correlation (0.928) between total scores on the two surveys, supporting the hypothesis that higher emotional intelligence is associated with higher social intelligence. The document outlines the methodology used in the study.
Sigmund Freud was a pioneering psychologist who developed psychoanalytic theory and established the field of psychoanalysis. Some of Freud's key concepts include his structural model of the mind consisting of the id, ego, and superego; his theory of psychosexual development; and his view that unconscious drives and early childhood experiences influence behavior. Freud explored the human mind more thoroughly than previous thinkers and influenced fields like psychology, literature, and child-rearing. Psychoanalysis aims to make the unconscious conscious through free association and analysis of dreams and resistance during therapy sessions.

This document provides an overview of psychodynamic theory and some of its key contributors. It discusses how psychodynamic theory, developed by Sigmund Freud, views psychological forces like the unconscious mind and childhood experiences as influencing behavior. It describes Freud's structural model of the id, ego and superego, as well as concepts like defense mechanisms and psychosexual stages. The document also discusses how later theorists like Jung, Horney, and Adler built upon and diverged from Freud's work, contributing their own perspectives on topics like personality types, neurosis, and the role of social/environmental factors.
The psychodynamic approach to counseling originated from Sigmund Freud's ideas of psychoanalysis. It focuses on helping clients gain insight into the underlying reasons for their problems and develop the ability to cope with future difficulties. Key concepts include the id, ego, and superego; defense mechanisms; and psychosexual stages of development. Techniques include transference, free association, dream analysis, and interpretation. The approach has evolved with object relations theory, attachment theory, and consideration of multicultural issues.
Introspection is a method of self observation
The word
Intro” means “within” and
“Spection” mean “looking”
Hence, it is a method where an individual is looking within one self
Stout considered that ‘to introspect’ is to attend to the working of one’s own mind in a systematic way
Wilhelm Wundt pioneered the use of a technique known as introspection
“The limitations of introspection can be overcome by practice and training, by remaining alert during introspection and by comparing results obtained by experts”
Tiffy Lux has had a passion for psychology since high school. She excelled in psychology courses in college and earned a 3.6 GPA. Upon taking abnormal psychology and counseling theories courses, she became interested in clinical psychology and decided to pursue a PsyD. She is drawn to cognitive behavioral therapy because she believes people must want to change in order to change, and CBT helps change cognitive processes to change behavior. In the next 4 months, she plans to work as an assistant to a psychologist or counselor to gain hands-on experience before pursuing a PsyD in clinical psychology to become a practicing clinical psychologist.
The document discusses the relationship between emotions and rational thinking. It explores the James-Lange theory of emotions, which claims that physical sensations precede emotions. However, humans experience more complex social emotions influenced by beliefs. While emotions can fuel knowledge pursuits, strong emotions may also distort rational thinking by biasing perceptions, reasoning, and language. The document argues that completely removing emotions would make human life impossible, and that there is a continuum between rational and emotional thinking. Intuitions and emotions both contribute to knowledge but must be scrutinized rationally.
Psychologists conduct scientific studies on behavior and brain function. They work in educational institutions, healthcare facilities, and private practices. Psychologists help individuals, couples, and families address behavioral issues. They require a master's degree or higher in psychology and must be licensed. There are many fields of psychology including clinical, cognitive, developmental, and social psychology. The median salary for psychologists is $68,640 per year.
Dynamic psychotherapy aims to reveal unconscious content to alleviate psychic tension. It relies on the client-therapist relationship. Past experiences shape personality and perceptions through implicit memory. Transference and countertransference influence current relationships. Repeated self-defeating behaviors are an attempt to resolve past conflicts. The therapeutic relationship provides a safe space to examine feelings, distortions, and patterns promoting behavioral change.
The document discusses the nervous system and its main components. It describes that the nervous system comprises two main divisions: the central nervous system (CNS) consisting of the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system (PNS) consisting of nerve fibers connecting receptors to the CNS. Neurons are the basic functional units of the nervous system and transmit electrochemical signals. The brain is the master organ that controls and integrates the activities of the entire nervous system. The brain is divided into three main parts: the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. The document provides details on the structure and functions of the key components of the nervous system.
Psychoanalytic theory was first developed by Sigmund Freud in the late 19th century to describe personality development and the dynamics underlying psychotherapy. It proposes that unconscious drives and childhood experiences shape adult behavior. Freud described the id, ego, and superego and proposed psychosexual stages of development. While influential, psychoanalytic theory is now widely disputed due to its lack of empirical evidence and failure to consider environmental and cultural influences on personality.
Psychology is works every day in human life. It helps to set the path every day for achieving a big goal. To achieve a big goal, an individual breaks it into small which works on daily life and goal is always measured by success, being success or failure. If you achieve success makes you happy and healthy in life at mental level.
Psychology is the study of people's behavior, performance, and mental operations. It also refers to the application of the knowledge, which can be used to understand events, treat mental health issues, and improve education, employment, and relationships.
Sigmund Freud was an Austrian neurologist who developed psychoanalysis. He lived from 1856 to 1939, originally practicing as a doctor in Vienna but later leaving for London after the Nazi takeover of Austria. Freud's psychodynamic theory proposed that unconscious drives and desires shape conscious behavior and personality. He suggested the mind is divided into the id, ego, and superego, and that unconscious conflicts between these lead to neurosis. Freud believed childhood experiences, especially in the psychosexual stages, could impact adult personality and behavior.
The psychodynamic perspective focuses on explaining behavior through unconscious sexual conflicts from childhood. It assumes that early relationships with parents shape personality. Freud's case study of Little Hans showed the boy's sexual attraction to his mother and fear of his father through dreams and behaviors. Thigpen and Cleckley's study of "Eve" found her multiple personalities developed after childhood trauma, supporting the idea that early events influence later personality. Projective tests were used but rely on subjective interpretation. While psychodynamic theory helped further understanding of mental illness, Freud's findings have limited generalizability due to focusing on single case studies within a specific cultural context.
Psychodynamic approach (Strengths and weaknesses)Hafiza Samath
The psychodynamic approach proposed by Freud views abnormal behavior as arising from unresolved internal conflicts, usually from early childhood. Some strengths are that it provides explanations for psychological disturbances and encouraged treatment. However, it lacks scientific validity as Freud's ideas were based on his subjective analysis of a biased sample without empirical evidence. It also depends heavily on the therapist's interpretation and may overfocus on sexual issues rather than social factors.
Freud's psychoanalytic theory viewed personality as being formed by unconscious drives and instincts, divided into the id, ego, and superego. Freud believed personality develops through psychosexual stages from infancy to adulthood. His followers like Jung, Adler, and Horney accepted or modified some of Freud's ideas. Contemporary psychologists are more skeptical of Freud's theories and the existence of the unconscious. Projective tests like the Rorschach inkblot test and Thematic Apperception Test aim to assess personality through people's interpretations of ambiguous stimuli, attempting to reveal aspects of the unconscious.
Psychology is a scientific field that studies behavior. It possesses a body of facts supported by principles and laws, emphasizes searching for truth through objective investigation and controlled experiments, and helps predict future developments by applying theories. However, psychology is not perfectly objective like natural sciences due to studying dynamic and unpredictable human behavior. Therefore, psychology is considered a "developing positive science" rather than a fully developed positive science like physics or chemistry.

Psychology is the science of the mind and behavior. The goals of psychology include observing and describing behavior, understanding and explaining behavior, predicting behavior, and influencing behavior. The nature vs nurture debate discusses the influence of innate/genetic factors versus environmental factors on human development. Wilhelm Wundt and William James are considered founding fathers of modern psychology for their pioneering work establishing psychology as a science in the late 19th century. During this time, psychology focused on the relationship between the mind and brain.
This document is a literature review comparing the humanistic and psychoanalytic orientations in psychology. It discusses the key aspects and differences between the two approaches, including their philosophical views and effectiveness in treatment. The review finds that while both orientations have strengths and weaknesses, neither is clearly superior to the other. It concludes by proposing a new question for further study - how the humanistic and psychoanalytic orientations could potentially be integrated to form an improved approach that combines aspects of each theory.

The key points about schizoid personality disorder are:
1. It is characterized by a lack of interest in social relationships and a preference for solitary activities.
2. Diagnostic features include indifference to developing close relationships, deriving little satisfaction from family or social groups, and preferring solitary hobbies over interacting with others.
3. Potential causes include genetic and neurological factors. Treatment involves psychotherapy focused on social skills and relationships, as the condition is generally considered long-term.

Community psychology arose in the 1950s-1960s due to a shift away from individually-focused healthcare towards more progressive, publicly-focused treatments and practices interested in prevention and social change. It challenges common notions of clinical psychology by focusing on understanding individuals within their social and physical environments. The researcher explored community psychology through online research on relevant divisions of the APA and occupations related to clinical, counseling, community and mental health work. They interviewed a clinical psychologist who discussed working in a hospital setting. Community psychology aims to understand individuals in their social contexts and promote mental health on a community-wide level.

Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...Leonel Morgado
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.
Candidate young stellar objects in the S-cluster: Kinematic analysis of a sub...Sérgio Sacani
Context. The observation of several L-band emission sources in the S cluster has led to a rich discussion of their nature. However, a definitive answer to the classification of the dusty objects requires an explanation for the detection of compact Doppler-shifted Brγ emission. The ionized hydrogen in combination with the observation of mid-infrared L-band continuum emission suggests that most of these sources are embedded in a dusty envelope. These embedded sources are part of the S-cluster, and their relationship to the S-stars is still under debate. To date, the question of the origin of these two populations has been vague, although all explanations favor migration processes for the individual cluster members. Aims. This work revisits the S-cluster and its dusty members orbiting the supermassive black hole SgrA* on bound Keplerian orbits from a kinematic perspective. The aim is to explore the Keplerian parameters for patterns that might imply a nonrandom distribution of the sample. Additionally, various analytical aspects are considered to address the nature of the dusty sources. Methods. Based on the photometric analysis, we estimated the individual H−K and K−L colors for the source sample and compared the results to known cluster members. The classification revealed a noticeable contrast between the S-stars and the dusty sources. To fit the flux-density distribution, we utilized the radiative transfer code HYPERION and implemented a young stellar object Class I model. We obtained the position angle from the Keplerian fit results; additionally, we analyzed the distribution of the inclinations and the longitudes of the ascending node. Results. The colors of the dusty sources suggest a stellar nature consistent with the spectral energy distribution in the near and midinfrared domains. Furthermore, the evaporation timescales of dusty and gaseous clumps in the vicinity of SgrA* are much shorter ( 2yr) than the epochs covered by the observations (≈15yr). In addition to the strong evidence for the stellar classification of the D-sources, we also find a clear disk-like pattern following the arrangements of S-stars proposed in the literature. Furthermore, we find a global intrinsic inclination for all dusty sources of 60 ± 20◦, implying a common formation process. Conclusions. The pattern of the dusty sources manifested in the distribution of the position angles, inclinations, and longitudes of the ascending node strongly suggests two different scenarios: the main-sequence stars and the dusty stellar S-cluster sources share a common formation history or migrated with a similar formation channel in the vicinity of SgrA*. Alternatively, the gravitational influence of SgrA* in combination with a massive perturber, such as a putative intermediate mass black hole in the IRS 13 cluster, forces the dusty objects and S-stars to follow a particular orbital arrangement.

Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths ForwardLeonel Morgado
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.

I believe the proposed modification to UWF’s curriculum of replacing general
psychology with positive psychology as a general education class is erroneous for numerous
reasons, and I will expound upon five of them in this essay. First, the proposed change simply
does not correspond with the goals of general education. From what I have gathered, general
education is meant to provide one with a strong, and wide, base of knowledge from which one
can subsequently build upon if one so chooses. As far as the field of psychology is concerned,
the course of general psychology logically provides a better general understanding of psychology
than any other course, almost by definition, some might say. Second, the goals of positive
psychology, like those of most other “upper level/specialized” courses, do not coincide with the
goals of general education. Positive psychology is about both building upon traditional
psychology, as well as shining a light on the previously largely unexplored topic of positive
human psychology. Thirdly, chronologically speaking, it makes no sense to teach positive
psychology before teaching students about the history of psychology and/or general psychology.
Like most fields, current psychologists build upon the work of past psychologists, and therefore
one should first learn about traditional, general [insert subject here] before learning about a
modern sub-section of the subject. One would not be taught a course on modern philosophy
before first learning about traditional, general philosophy, consisting of the foundational works
2. of Socrates, Plato, etc. and one should not be taught positive psychology before first learning
about Freud, Skinner, etc.
Fourth, I understand the selection of positive psychology as opposed to other sub-sections
of psychology, such as clinical psychology, I/O psychology, etc., because positive psychology
supposedly covers around 50% of psychology while all other subsections cover considerably less
in the grand scheme of things. However, just because it covers half of psychology that does not
make it an acceptable substitute for all other sub-sections of psychology, and certainly not for
general psychology itself. Botany would not be taught as a general education course at the
expense of zoology and general biology and the same should not be done with positive
psychology. Finally, once again, I do see the appeal of the exciting, new field of positive
psychology, and I believe that it should be allowed to be taken by all students as an elective.
However, a more reasonable solution would be to simply add the teaching of positive
psychology into the general psychology course, just as it already briefly covers most other sub-
sections of psychology.

For this essay I will be assuming the role of Martin Seligman, and briefly responding to
five specific critiques of positive psychology: that it minimizes the negative aspects of
psychology, and consequently ignores the “whole being”; that positive psychology’s new
programs are underfunded; the aggressive tone that some psychologist’s use when describing the
potential positive psychology holds; that positive psychology is “wussy”, over-simplistic, or self-
help “woo-woo”; and finally, that positive psychology is built upon flawed statistical support.
First, I, Martin Seligman, would like to state that positive psychology is not “negative about the
negative”, it is simply not our area of interest. That would be akin to saying that zoologists
ignore plants and botany and in doing so are ignoring the “whole biology” of Earth. Positive
psychology recognizes that life consists of both the positive and the negative, and that a
complete, comprehensive psychology will take into account both the strengths and the
weaknesses of people. However, that future, comprehensive psychology must have access to a
plethora of research on both the positive and negative psychological aspects of life, so far,
psychologists have done an extensive amount of work on pathology, weaknesses, and the
negative aspects of psychology, but not nearly as much on optimal functioning, strengths, and
the positive aspects of psychology. That is where positive psychology comes in. Just as
zoologists focus on animals, and largely ignore plants so that the general field of biology will
have access to more information on animals, so positive psychology focuses on the positive
aspects of psychology so that the general field of psychology will have a greater understanding
of the positive aspects of psychology.
Second, it is true that positive psychology programs are not as well funded as some other,
more established programs in psychology. However, it is that way with many new fields of
4. study, and we are becoming more popular, and better funded every day. Third, as one of the
founders of the positive psychology movement I do apologize if some positive psychologists
come off as a bit aggressive with our grand claims about the power, and promise of this exciting
new field. That trip to Mexico of mine may not have helped… But anyways, while I do admit
that we can get carried away at times, I do believe that the new rush of interest and research into
a, largely ignored, 50% of psychology is something to get excited about.
Fourth, the fact that positive psychology has been described as “wussy” or “sissy” is
troubling and seems to only reinforce its necessity. The fact that amazing concepts such as peace,
love, and happiness are seen as feminine, or inferior, to concepts such as conflict, hate, and anger
is disheartening, and with some luck, the “wussy” field of positive psychology can put peace,
love, and happiness in their rightfully superior position. Finally, if our statistics our currently
flawed I assure you that we will continue researching until our data is as strong as it can be. I
would be surprised if most fields of study were not built upon data and statistics that some would
not describe as flawed at one point in their development. Positive psychology is still a relatively
young field, and there is undoubtedly much data that has yet to be discovered. However, I assure
you that we will continue to work day and night to provide our field of psychology with the
strongest data and statistics possible.
