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.
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.

Psychoanalysis & Sigmund Freud by Malik ShahrukhShahrukh Malik
Psychoanalytic theory is the theory of personality organization and the dynamics of personality development that guides psychoanalysis, a clinical method for treating psychopathology. First laid out by Sigmund Freud in the late 19th century, psychoanalytic theory has undergone many refinements since his work.

Structuralism was the first school of psychology and focused on breaking down mental processes into the most basic components. Researchers tried to understand the basic elements of consciousness using a method known as introspection. Wilhelm Wundt, founder of the first psychology lab, is often associated with this school of thought despite the fact that it was his student Edward B. Titchener who first coined the term to describe this school of thought.
Functionalism formed as a reaction to the structuralism and was heavily influenced by the work of William James and the evolutionary theory of Charles Darwin. Functionalists sought to explain the mental processes in a more systematic and accurate manner. Rather than focusing on the elements of consciousness, functionalists focused on the purpose of consciousness and behavior. Functionalism also emphasized individual differences, which had a profound impact on education.

The Culture Fair Intelligence Test (CFIT) was conceived by Raymond B. Cattell in 1920s. It is a nonverbal instrument to measure your analytical and reasoning ability in the abstract and novel situations. The test includes mazes, classifications, conditions and series. Such problems are believed to be common with all cultures. That’s the reason that the testing industry claims it free from all cultural influences.

Chapter 2 - psychoanalysis
Sigmund Freud
Born 1856 – What was going on in the united states?
Franklin Pierce was president of the U.S.
The Civil War in the United States was still a few years away (1861).
A lot of people die in Kansas over slavery.
500 Mormons leave Iowa City, headed for Salt Lake City.
Early life
Born in Moravia in Czechoslovakia in 1856 to a Jewish family
Had a very loving and protective mother; stern and authoritarian father (20 years older than his mother).
His father was a widower. From his father’s first marriage he had two elder brothers, one of which had a son Sigmund’s age. So… Sigmund was born an uncle.
Freud and his family moved to Vienna when he was four years of age. He stayed there close to 80 years, moving only when the Nazi party took power in 1938.
Freud was the oldest of his five siblings and given preferential treatment.
He had dreams of becoming a general or lawyer, but because he was a Jew he couldn’t.
He began medical studies at the University of Vienna and graduated 8 yrs. later.
Professional life
He established a practice as a clinical neurologist in 1881.
Freud made notable contributions to research. Developing a method to of staining cells for microscopic study.
As a physician, he explored the anesthetic properties of cocaine.
In his private practice Freud focused on the study of neurosis (emotional disturbances.)
He released Interpretation of Dreams in 1900.
There was a group of doctors who worked in Vienna that would hang out and talk: Jung, Adler, Jones, Brill, Sandor.
Origins of psychoanalysis
On his return from France, Freud became influenced by a Viennese physician and friend, Joseph Breuer.
Psychoanalysis began with the case history of Joseph Breuer’s patient, Anna O.
Psychoanalysis - A treatment approach based on the observation that individuals are often unaware of many of the factors that determine their emotions and behavior. These unconscious factors may be the source of considerable distress and unhappiness, and other troubling personality traits.
Anna O. experienced what is now know as conversion disorder (called hysteria at the time)
Breuer used hypnosis and “talking method”
After talking about her father’s illness and death, Anna experienced catharsis (emotional release), and her symptoms were relieved.
She became very attached to Dr. Breuer causing problems with his wife… she offered him a phantom pregnancy as her last symptom.
Freud starts working more on his own…
Freud used the “talking method” to assist his patients in remembering past traumatic events first through hypnosis, but later abandoned this technique when he realized that not all patients could be hypnotized.
Unconscious processes (forces unaware to the person)
Resistance: force that prevents the patient from becoming aware of events and keeps them in the unconscious – not allowing painful memories into consciousness… no ill effects
Repression: blocking of a wish or desire (strong emotions evoked fr ...

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.
1. PSYCHODYNAMIC APPROACH
According to Freud (1925) behaviour
is motivated by internal or
psychological forces, and abnormality
is caused by an imbalance in the
internal forces that motivate
behaviour. He believed that mental
illness arises from unresolved
conscious conflicts, and these usually
occur in early childhood (e.g. the
Oedipus complex).
2.
3. STRENGTHS
Many observations of psychodynamic therapists appear
to be borne out in everyday life, e.g., defence
mechanisms
Many people with psychological disturbances do
recollect childhood traumas
Freudian theory provides a comprehensive framework to
describe human personality
Freud ‘rehumanised’ the distressed, making their
suffering more comprehensible to the rest of society
By developing a method of treatment, Freud
encouraged a more optimistic view regarding
psychological distress. Mental illness could, in some
cases at least, be treated!
4. WEAKNESSES
Has explanatory power, but lacks scientific validity
The psychodynamic model is able to provide
believable explanations for the causes of abnormality,
e.g. childhood traumas, but it lacks the empirical
research evidence needed to support the theory.
Freud based his ideas mainly on his own subjective
analysis of middle class Viennese women.

6. WEAKNESSES
Psychoanalysis depends on the therapist's
subjective interpretation
Psychoanalysis depends heavily on the therapist’s
interpretation of what the client says. Does a dream
about swimming in the sea really mean that the client
has dreamt about sex? Freud said that if the client
accepted the interpretation then it was probably
correct. However, if the client vehemently rejected the
interpretation it may simply be the client’s conscious
mind rejecting an unacceptable but accurate
interpretation. Either way therapist wins!
7. WEAKNESSES
Freud used a biased sample
Freud studied a group of largely middle-class
Viennese women aged between 20 and 44 years, all
of whom had serious emotional problems, and so his
sample cannot reliably generalise to the general
population. He also only studied one child (Little
Hans) when developing his theory of psychosexual
development, and even then he only corresponded
with the boy's father by letter.
8. WEAKNESSES
Over focus on sexual issues
Psychodynamic theory as developed by Freud tended
to focus too much on sexual issues, and de-
emphasised the importance of interpersonal and
social factors in causing and maintaining mental
disorders. Is it more likely that failing to resolve the
Oedipus complex causes abnormality, or could a
dysfunctional parenting style leading to an insecure
attachment be the cause?
9. WEAKNESSES
Determinist
The psychodynamic approach is very determinist as it
says that suffering childhood trauma will lead to
abnormal behaviour in adulthood, however it ignores
the influence of genes (biology), reward
(behaviourism), and thinking patterns (cognitive
approach).
