The document discusses psychodynamic approaches and case study research methods. It provides details on Freud's use of case studies to develop and support his theories. Case studies allow for an in-depth examination of individuals or small groups. Freud employed techniques like dream analysis, analysis of slips of the tongue, and free association to uncover unconscious thoughts in his case studies. However, case studies are subject to limitations like lack of generalizability and issues with reliability due to subjective interpretation. The document also covers ethical considerations and guidelines for research.

Psychoanalytic theories explain human behaviour in terms of the interaction of various components of personality. Sigmund Freud was the founder of this school.
Freud drew on the physics of his day (thermodynamics) to coin the term psycho-dynamics. Based on the idea of converting heat into mechanical energy, he proposed psychic energy could be converted into behaviour.
Freud's theory places central importance on dynamic, unconscious psychological conflicts.

This research was carried out as a partial fulfillment towards research methods course by.
Correspondence concerning this paper should be addressed to
1. What is your research question?
What is the significance of extroversion and introversion in marriage?
1. What is your hypothesis or hypotheses? What is the null hypothesis?
Null Hypothesis: Extroversion brings along successful family institution and marital bliss.
Alternate hypothesis: Extroversion does not bring along successful family institution and marital bliss.
1. How many participants would you like to use and why? What are the inclusion characteristics, i.e., what must they have in order to be included in your study (for example, gender, diagnosis, age, personality traits, etc.)? Are there any exclusion characteristics, i.e. are there certain characteristics that would exclude them from being in your study? Does the sample need to be diverse? Why or why not?
20 participants will be engaged in the research study. This is a small number that is easier to manage as well as coordinate their activities during the data collection exercise. Ideally, participants are required and are normally sampled from a large population to be a representative. The nature of the study will require the researcher to get participants who have experiences in marriage. On gender, I will sample equal number of men and women to act as the representative of the general population. The approach is guided by the population in the community where the number of women and men is at par. On age, I will pick individuals from across ages although the highest percentage will constitute of married individuals between the age of 30 and 40 years. Further, I will also pick four individuals who have divorced with the aim of understanding whether introversion or extroversion contributed to their divorce. I will also look at the personal traits of individuals; hence will both social and anti-social individuals. The target participants will precise, representative and homogeneous. They will then be divided into different sets or strata that are mutually exclusive in order to aid it obtaining a systematic process of research.
1. What sampling technique will be used to collect your sample? What population does yoursample generalize to?
Being a qualitative research, the research will utilize the sampling method in the collection of data. Surveying and questionnaire are the main data collection methods that are normally used in quantitative research. The methods aids in understanding the behavior and effects from different members of the focus groups. The approach helps to reduce biases that may emerge when using a bigger population size while at the same time gu ...

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. Methodology
Looks at case studies in general, case studies used in
his approach, correlation design, cross-sectional and
longitudinal studies and sampling techniques.
3. Case Study research method
That allows data to be gathered in both depth and detail. Study
of an individual or group E.g. small no. of kids brought up whilst
deprived of any kind of parenting.
Involve programs like – government funding, health promotion
Individual/small group tend to be the focus of the study
Depth + Detail : interviews; questionnaires; observations;
gathering as much data as possible.
Central research ‘tool’ – history of the case, background
information (qualitative data)
Tests and experiments are possible whilst using this method
4. Case Study Vs. Research methods
Does not give data – it is just
a process
Case study history is
qualitative data
Actually methods to obtain
data within or for a case
study via interviews,
questionnaires etc
Provides measurable data -
quantitative as well as
qualitative
Case study
Research
method
5. Triangulation
Generate themes (final
results)
+
ideas (hypothesis)
Pool data
-From a person or a different
source
- look for common ground
Reinforce data from one another
6. Case studies – scientific?
YES
o Research collects information
through study – systematically –
evidence is gathered there for
any claim by (backed up)
o Participant’s (patient/ analysand)
claim Interviews ,
questionnaires, observations are
structured.
o They are valid and reliable as the
IF it is a repeated measures
format (replicability)
o It is measurable because the
format focuses on what a person
thinks not feels
NO
o The type of data is qualitative , it
is rich in depth and detail –
ecological validity HOWEVER
without subjectivity the data can
not be analysed; making it
experimentally invalid!
o Situational variables whilst
interpreting the data – time,
place, culture, mood etc
questioning reliability and
validity!

7. Precautions…
Researchers deliberately search or “hunt”
for evidence
going against their prediction or work backwards from
their results
Reliability
Generasibility
Validility Application
Ethics
8. Case Studies (general analysis)
Study of individual
or small groups
In-depth rich data
Mainly qualitative
data
Use many research
methods such as
questionnaires, case
histories and
observation
Generation of
themes
Uses tables of
categories
Cross – case analysis
Some quantitative
data
9. Evaluation of case study
research methods (general)
STRENGTHS
Data are valid because they
are in depth; detailed and
focus on real experiences in a
real situation
A valuable research
methodology because a case
study may be the only way to
gather rich, detailed
qualitative information in
context and with meaning for
those concerned.
WEAKNESSES
Lacks generalisibility because
they are about one individual
(for small group) only, so they
are specific rather than
general and data cannot be
applied fairly to others
Hard to replicate, so cannot
be tested for reliability, which
means data may be
subjective and cannot be
used to build up a body of
knowledge.
10. Freud used case study methods to conduct his
research and reinforce his theories. His
research was also a therapy for his analysand
(participants)
AIM: to access the
“unconscious” mind – not
possible by standard means
Freud’s
Methods
‘Dream’ and ‘Symbol’ analysis:
interpreting dreams by hearing manifest
content (the reported dream) and
interpreting symbols to uncover the
latent content (repressed wish)
Slips of the Tongue
(Freudian slips) :
Mistakes when talking that reveal
unconscious desires
Free
association:
Allowing a stream
of consciousness to
try to access the
unconscious
11. Freud’s methods Vs. Case study method
Similarities
Focuses on qualitative data
Gathering of in-depth rich data from one person
Differences
Focuses on qualitative data
Gathering of in-depth rich data from one person
12. Freud’s case studies
(general analysis)
Study of an individual
In-depth, rich data
Qualitative data
Uses different
techniques such as slips
of the tongue, dream
analysis and free
association
Suggesting
interpretation to
analysand
To help to reveal
unconscious repressed
thoughts, emotions and
memories
To make the
unconscious
conscious
To release the energy to
aid symptoms
To give evidence for
Freud’s ideas
13. Stengths Vs Weaknesses
Uses different
methods to uncover
unconscious wishes to
access by
conventional means
Acts both as a
research method and
a therapy and allows
the analysand to be
cured
Involves subjective
interpretation by the
analyst, so it is not
scientific
Cannot be replicated
to test for reliability
because it focuses on
the unique
unconscious desires of
an individual and the
analysis is carried out
by one therapist
14.
15. BPS
British Psychological society and other
professional bodies outline ethical guidelines
that must be followed in research:
Informed consent
Deceit
Debriefing
Competence
Right to withdraw
Whatever the research method; case studies
are no exceptions
16. Confidentiality and
Privacy
All data should be kept confidential and private, it cold be
argued that the data might be valuable enough to warrant
invasion of such – BPS doesn’t support this. Unless the
analysand is willing to give consent of this information
being revealed.
17. Practitioner’s Ethics
Competence
Obligation
Informed consent
Personal conduct
Access to health records
Confidentiality
Responsibility
Safeguarding fitness to practice
Teaching training + supervision
Publications
Private practice and relations with media
18. Credibility for Freud’s
studies
Masson (1989)’s criticism +psychoanalysis of Freud:
o The interpretation of the analyst can push the patient towards certain
values and goals that may not be their own, so there is an issue of the power
of the analyst over the analysand.
o There is gender bias in Freud’s work. Boys are focused on more than girls –
girls are held to have less strong identification and so weaker moral
development.
o There is undue emphasis on sexual matters, particularly where transference
occurs, which is about the patient having feelings for the analyst. This is
ethically very sensitive.
Power, gender and sexual issues are important to be
considered when the ethical implications and issues of
credibility of his work
19. Sampling Techniques
Random Sampling
Each person in the population has an equal chance of
being chosen to be in the sample
Stratified Sampling
Ensuring representations from certain groups
Volunteer Sampling
People offer to take part
Opportunity Sampling
Taking whoever is available at that time
20. Random Sampling
Low bias because
everyone has an
equal chance of being
chosen
Sample can be
checked
mathematically for
bias
Cannot be certain
that the sample is
representative of all
groups/types etc
Difficult to access all
the population so
that random
sampling can take
place
21. Stratified Sampling
All relevant
group/strata will have
at least some
representation
Limits the numbers of
participants needed
It is difficult to know
how many of each
group is needed in
order to represent the
target population
accurately
Relies on researchers
knowing all the
required groups/strata,
forces choice of
participants and
proportions of all
groups so can give bias
by excluding people
22. Volunteer Sampling
Ethically good
because people
volunteer, so are
willing to be involved.
More likely to
cooperate which
means there may be
less social desirability
and such biases
Only certain types o
people may volunteer
, so there is bias.
May take a long time
to get enough
volunteers
23. Opportunity Sampling
More ethical because
the researcher can
judge if the participant
is llikely to be upset by
the student or is too
busy to take part.
The researcher has
more control over who
is chosen and shouls,
therefore, be able to
get the sample quickly
and efficiently
Only people availale
are used and they may
be a self-selected
group(e.g. not
working , so available
during the day)
May not get
representatives from
all groups so there
may be bias
