A Template for Problem Solving
Paul and Elder (2009); prepared for the Critical Thinking Foundation
To be an effective problem solver:
1. Identify your goals. Regularly re-articulate your goals, purposes, needs, and values. Use visualization and visuals with goals to assist with identification and motivation. A problem is an obstacle to reaching your goals, achieving your purpose, meeting your needs, and following your values. What will it look like when the problem is gone?
2. Identify your problems. The problem must be stated clearly and precisely.
3. Study the problem. Classify the problem. What kind of problem is it? Where did it come from? When does it occur? With whom does it occur?
4. Find your control. What parts of the problem are under your control and influence? What parts of the problem are not under your direct control and influence?
5. Information is needed to solve the problem. Figure out the information that is needed to solve the problem. Access and review this information. Use many sources if possible.
6. Carefully analyze the information needed to solve the problem. Be careful of fixation and egocentric/ethnocentric thinking during this process; you might be able to go with what worked before, but you also might have to try something completely new. Only make reasonable (reliable and valid) inferences from this data.
7. Determine options for action. Action is needed to solve problems. What can you accomplish in the short term? What will be a long term option for action to solve the problem? Identify both types of options. Recognize limitations: time, money, power, culture, et cetera.
8. Evaluate the options for action. Determine the theoretical strengths (advantages) and weaknesses (disadvantages) of each option.
9. Adopt a specific action plan. Follow it through. This might be a direct action for problem solving, or it might be a “wait and see” plan.
10. Monitor the implications of your actions. Be ready, at all times, to revise your action plan. Realize the situation might require flexibility. Be prepared to change your mind, gather more information, or alter your statement of the problem as you learn more about the problem.

Chapter 2
I. Individual and Multicultural Differences
A. Psychological Study of Human Differences
1. Early Work- emphasized individual traits, such as intelligence, memory, and various personality traits.
a. Developed precise testing instruments and corresponding theoretical and mathematical formula used to quantify various traits
b. Measuring individual differences has expanded to form another area of study, psychometrics
2. During the first 80 years of the discipline’s existence, psychologists were not active in cross-cultural or multicultural research.
3. Psychologists may have been slow to expand their focus to include sociocultural influences, but once the expansion occurred in the 1960s and 1970s the field has moved rapidly to recognize cultural and individual differences.
4. The study of individual differences began in psychology with the aim of applying research in the areas of education, industry, and therapy. During the 1970s and 1980s psychologists became quickly and intensely interested in cross-cultural and multicultural research.
B. Assumptions Regarding Average and Normal
1. NORMAL
a. The term normal is less precise in that it does not have a statistical definition.
b. We frame normal in personal terms, based on our life experiences
(1) As childrennormal is often characterized by familiar, familial, and local customs.
(2) As we get older and our experiences broaden, we learn to appreciate a wide range of accepted thoughts and behaviors as normal within our society.
(3) We also realize with age that what is normal is changing. e.g., American male with an earring.
4. ABNORMAL
a. In addition to developing a sense of normal, we may also develop a sense of abnormal.
(1) It is easy to begin to dichotomize these terms such that thoughts or behaviors are either normal or abnormal: e.g., stranger approaches; that person is either normal (and I’m comfortable) or abnormal (and I’m on guard and suspicious).
(2) This perspective doesn’t allow for thoughts or behaviors to simply be different.
b. It is important to be reminded to WATCH OUR ASSUMPTIONS.
C. Closer Analysis of the Aging Population
1. It is also important to analyze data beyond the summary statements of the large group in order to find trends and differences among individuals and subgroups.
2. Consider the finding by the U.S. Census Bureau (2008) that of the 35 million Americans 65 years or older in 2005, 56.6% were married.
a. A closer look at the data reveals important yet hidden information in these figures.
b. Of the 15 million males 73.3% were married and only 13.1% were widowed. Of the 20 million females 43.8% were married and 42.5% were widowed.
c. By exploring the data with gender as the focus it becomes clear that the population 65 years and older in 2006 was .

The Spiritual Core
of African-Centered
Psychology
Over the past one hundred years, the discipline of psychology has exploded
onto the academic and scientific scene, advancing theories of human behavior,
theories of normal and abnormal development, and theories of the personal
and situational variables that contribute to one’s personality makeup. In fact,
there are entire schools of thought that have been developed as a way to syn-
thesize the vast array of ideas proposed by various theorists who are convinced
that their theory is the most compelling in the understanding of the human
psyche. There are Euro-American schools of thought that are labeled psychody-
namic, neo-analytic, behaviorism, humanistic, cognitive-behavioral, and exis-
tential (Myers, 2010).
MISSING ELEMENTS
In illustrating this point, many psychoanalytic theories are anchored in the
works of Sigmund Freud, who viewed human nature as a dynamic interplay be-
tween the unconscious, preconscious, and conscious mind. Each domain is be-
lieved to be responsible for navigating perspectives that influence how each
individual responds to internal instinctual drives (unconscious), repressed or
stored memories (preconscious), or to the demand of the external environment
(the conscious). Freud’s approach advanced the notion that the personality
comprised three interrelated parts labeled the ID (basic instincts that operate ac-
cording to what is pleasurable and satisfaction seeking), EGO (conscious
choices that are anchored in perceptions of reality), and the SUPER EGO (a
mental conscience influenced by parental values and principles of morality).
Psychoanalytic theory also proposed five stages (oral, anal, phallic, latency, and
genital) of development in a person’s life, each focusing on a region of the

body that aligned with the instinctual and pleasure seeking tendencies that
were believed to be the most salient at that point in time. The goals of a psy-
chodynamic clinician include: helping clients/patients recognize how unre-
solved issues in childhood continue to exert an influence in their lives and
helping clients gain insights into the roots of dysfunctional or maladaptive cop-
ing or lifestyle choices.
A contemporary of Freud .
Emotional intelligence is defined as the ability to understand and manage your own emotions, as well as recognize and influence the emotions of those around you. The term was first coined in 1990 by researchers John Mayer and Peter Salovey, but was later popularized by psychologist Daniel Goleman
Well-being has been defined as the combination of feeling good and functioning well; the experience of positive emotions such as happiness and contentment as well as the development of one's potential, having some control over one's life, having a sense of purpose, and experiencing positive relationships
Marketing psychology is the practice of aligning your content, communication, and strategies with the many predictable, often subconscious, human behavioral patterns that have been identified through experimentation and research.
Media Management mixes Management techniques with the field of Communication, Marketing, Mass Media, and Public Relations. Product Development is also an important part of Media Managment, as future experts need to lern how to develop, promote and sell new media products.
What do you mean by consumer behavior? Consumer behavior is the study of how people are making purchase decisions to satisfy their needs, wants or desires, and how their emotional, mental, and behavioral responses influence the buying decision.
Huntington's disease is a condition that stops parts of the brain working properly over time. It's passed on (inherited) from a person's parents. It gets gradually worse over time and is usually fatal after a period of up to 20 years.
Group therapy involves one or more psychologists who lead a group of roughly five to 15 patients. Typically, groups meet for an hour or two each week. Some people attend individual therapy in addition to groups, while others participate in groups only.
Drug intervention
An intervention is a process whereby all the significant members of a person's family get together at the same time, in the same place, to present specific behavior in a loving acceptable way. The experience for everyone involved in an intervention can be a very powerful, life-changing and dramatic event.

While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

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.

things I cannot change, courage to change
the things I can, and the wisdom to know the
difference
3. Wisdom and Courage
considered to be 2 of 4 cardinal virtues:
prudence, justice, fortitude, temperance
often studied together, erroneously
“As for you, my fine friend, you are a victim of
disorganized thinking. You are under the
unfortunate delusion that, simply because you
run away from danger, you have no courage.
You’re confusing courage with wisdom.”
4. Wisdom and strength both exemplify
Human excellence
they involve a challenge,
they require sound decision making,
they are culturally bound, and
they typically contribute to the common good.
ordinary people can demonstrate both
of these extraordinary qualities.
Wisdom and Courage
6. 3 distinct conceptualizations (Robinson, 1990)
1. found in contemplative people (sophia):
Wisdom is a self-transcendent understanding of divine
patterns that govern the human world, passed on through
maxims
2. that of a practical nature (phronesis):
Wisdom is expressed though the ‘art of
living’ an ideal human life,
with interpretative knowledge gleaned from
rationally examining personal lived experience
and sound judgment about how to act
appropriately and ethically in particular
situations.
3. scientific understanding (episteme)
7. Theories of Wisdom (Scientific
Understanding)
Implicit Theories (Theories of a
construct that describe its basic
elements)
Explicit Theories (theories detailing the
observable manifestations of a
construct)
8. Implicit Theories of Wisdom
Clayton (1975)
- 3 dimensions of wisdom:
1. Affective (empathy and compassion)
2. Reflective (intuition & introspection)
3. Cognitive (experience & intelligence)
9. Implicit Theories of Wisdom
Sternberg (1985)
- 6 dimensions of wisdom:
1. Reasoning ability
2. Sagacity
3. Learning from ideas/environments
4. Judgment
5. Expeditious use of information
6. Perspacity (acutenes of
discernment & perception)
10. Implicit Theories of Wisdom
Holiday & Chandler (1986)
- 5 dimensions of wisdom:
1. Exceptional understanding
2. Judgment/communication skills
3. General competence
4. Interpersonal skills
5. Social unobtrusiveness
11. Implicit Theories of Wisdom
Baltes (1993)
- Wisdom:
1. addresses important/difficult life matters
2. special knowledge, judgment, or
advice
3. extraordinary scope/depth of knowledge
4. combines mind and virtue
5. hard to achieve; easy to recognize
12. Implicit Theories
30 international experts (Jeste et al., 2010)
“[Wisdom] is uniquely human; a form of
advanced cognitive and emotional
development that is experience driven; a
personal quality, albeit a rare one, that can
be learned, increases with age, can be
measured and is not likely to be enhanced by
medication” (Jeste et al., 2010, p. 668).
13. Implicit Theories of Wisdom
Differ by Cultural Context
Western Perspectives (cognitive over
affective dimensions)
Eastern Perspectives (balance of
cognitive and affective dimensions)
14. Explicit Theories of Wisdom
theories focused on behavioral
manifestations
intertwined with theories of personality
and cognitive development
emphasize application of pragmatic
knowledge in pursuit of exceptional
human functioning
15. Jean Piaget’s stages of cognitive
Development (1932): qualitatively different
kinds of thinking that occur during
childhood and adulthood
Stage 1: Sensorimotor Stage (Birth-2yrs)
Stage 2: Preoperational Stage (2-7yrs)
Stage 3: Concrete Operations (7-11yrs)
Stage 4: Formal Operations (11-on)
16. Explicit Theories of Wisdom
Reigel (1973)
- built from Piaget’s cognitive theory
- dialectical operations stage (logical argumentation in
pursuit of truth or reality)
- reflective thinking (attends to a balance of information and
to truth that evolves in a cultural and historical context)
17. Explicit Theories of Wisdom
Erickson (1959)
- wisdom as part of optimal development
- concerned more for collective than self
Empirical Support: Orwoll (1998)
18. Explicit Theories
Balance Theory
Berlin Wisdom Paradigm
Similarities
1. Emphasize the organization and application
of pragmatic knowledge
2. Wise people can discern views of others,
develop a rich understanding of the world, craft
meaningful solutions to difficult problems and
direct their actions toward achieving a common
good
19. Explicit Theories of Wisdom
Robert Sternberg, Yale
- Balance Theory of Wisdom
- wisdom = forming a judgment amongst
competing influences that lack
a clear resolution
20. Sternberg’s Balance Theory of
Wisdom
wisdom is defined as the application of tacit
knowledge as mediated by values toward the
achievement of a common good through a
balance among multiple (a) intrapersonal, (b)
interpersonal, and (c) extrapersonal interests
in order to achieve a balance among (a)
adaptation to existing environments, (b)
shaping of existing environments, and (c)
selection of new environments.
22. Explicit Theories of Wisdom
Baltes and colleagues
- Berlin wisdom paradigm
- wisdom = the ways and means of
planning, managing, and understanding a
good life; wisdom is studied as a kind of
expertise in the matters of human life
23. Explicit Theories of Wisdom
Baltes Group – Five Criteria of Wisdom
1. factual knowledge
2. procedural knowledge
3. life-span contextualism
4. relativism of values
5. recognition and management of
uncertainty
24. Developing Wisdom
Many ideas of wisdom development:
- resolution of conflict/daily crises
- builds on knowledge, cognitive
skills, and personality traits; understanding of
culture and surrounding environment
- via exposure to wise models
- fluid intelligence, creativity, openness,
psychological mindedness and life
experiences combined
25. Developing Wisdom
Many ideas of wisdom development:
- Taiwan & West: life & work experiences,
observation, social interaction, professional
development and reading; family teaching &
religion
-laypeople’s idea of how wisdom develops
(Gluck & Bluck, 2011)

related to having a coherent sense of self and a
solid and consistent ego, which may be linked to
other beneficial qualities both inter- and
intrapersonally (Webster, 2010). In addition, wise
individuals appear to have less investment in
hedonistic pursuits (e.g., seeking pleasure) and
more interest in reflection and personal growth
