According to the New Oxford American
Dictionary, psychology is basically the scientific study of the human mind and
its functions, especially those affecting behavior in each context. In shorter
words,
psychology is basically the study of
mind and behaviors. No, a person studying psychology is called psychologist. To
become a psychologist your first must get a PhD in psychology. Then you must
get a government license to actually become a psychologist. Also, psychology
requires a different perspective in philosophy and religions. So, it is usually
hard to become a psychologist.
The American psychology in
the 20
th
Century played an important role in world psychology. Lots
of experiments that effect psychology now and psychology at that time were held
in the USA. The United States was an important place in the research of
psychology in the world. Many experiments affecting the development of modern
psychology was conducted in America. The conclusions of these experiments
influenced the direction of psychological theory in a big way. At the same
time, the political, economic, social, and cultural life of the United States
is also very widely used in psychology, and the psychological factors influencing
American government policies are usually very strong.
Depression, which is a mental illness. There is no medicine that can
treat sadness and self-doubt yet, even if you use a special medicine,
everyone's mind is different. So, you can't just have one medicine for everyone
that has depression. It is a complex sickness that can be caused by sadness,
extended self-doubt, and heavy anxiety. These are all feelings that need to be
talked through. I would say that the talking therapy would do best of
depression and anxiety. Anxiety is caused by too much work and sometimes
extreme decisions. People can talk with a psychologist about their stress and
anxiety. They can help you in situations of need. The psychologist can decide a
treatment from the talk therapy and the talk therapy can also be suited with
the patient. As for drugs, they are just given to the patient that has the
sickness but maybe it is best suited for the patient.
If I was to
become a psychologist, I have become a professional in one of the three
divisions of the APA. The first one being
Division
6. Which is Behavioral Neuroscience and Comparative Psychology. I chose this
type of psychology because it has something to do with science. And one of my
passions is also science. I also would like to know more about the human brain
,and how it works, where the emotions come from, and how the neurons in your
brain communicate. That is why I think this would be a cool division of
psychology to have a career in. And, if we do this division well. You can make
some extreme discoveries about the human brain which can maybe help with curing
depression and other mental disorders.
The second one might be
Division 28
.
Which is Psychopharmacology and
Substance Abuse. I always felt that I should know why some people just love
smoking. Why some people just can't stop it, and why even though it's bad they
also like it. I feel like if you know this one well this could be a very very
interesting topic to have a career on. Especially if one of your family members
has drug abuse. The word Psychopharmacology means the scientific study of the
effects of drugs on the mind and behavior. This means you can also study why
and how this drug affects your body.
The
last one will probably be
Division
43
.
Which is Society
for Family
Psychology. This
division I think goes into a persons wellness. If a person doesn't have good
wellness, then they might suffer depression and anxiety. That is why I think
this division is important because, family is the most important part of
wellness. Family is where you are from and where you always will be. So it is
very important to have family.
The Diagnostic and Statistical
Manual of mental health disorders 5th edition is a type of diagnostic cure for
mental disorders. DMS5 is established by the APA. DMS5 has been changed from
DSM4 for in the following reasons:
family characteristic differences, genetic
risk factors, specific environmental risk factors, and biological markers. It
is why
DMS5
is better. These indicators serve as important guidelines to help the Working
Group decide how to categorize obstacles, it is helpful to guide clinical
practice.
In the fifth
edition of the classification manual, future research can improve the
understanding of the origin of the disease, as well as the pathophysiological
and commonalities among various obstacles, and provide a basis for future
replication models. The new edition adapts to future research in neurobiology,
genetics, and epidemiology. DSM-5 roughly classifies mental diseases into 22
categories. Some of them are feeding and eating disorders, dysphagia,
restrictive eating, enuresis, etc.
Socrates lived
an honorable life. Some said that he was so impressive that many others were
moved to write about him. He was born at 469bce and died at 399bce.He believed
strongly in justice. He believed that virtue is knowledge and famously stated
that, "The unexamined life is not worth living." Despite his noble
character, Socrates suffered a lot of criticism that eventually led to his
condemnation and subsequent death. Because of Socrates's beliefs and his
irreverence toward the gods, he was executed. In the Romans that Socrates might
make the gods angry.
The Socratic
Method is an educational term published in 2013. A teaching method developed
and used by Socrates. The core is that the teacher does not directly tell the
students what they should know, but according to the students' existing
knowledge and experience, let them get familiar with the topic through
discussion, question asking, and gradually guide the students to draw their own
conclusions.
Socrates,
despite having written nothing, is considered one of the handful of
philosophers who forever changed how philosophy itself was to be conceived. All
our information about him is second-hand and most of it vigorously disputed,
but his trial and death at the hands of the Athenian democracy is nevertheless
the founding myth of the academic discipline of philosophy, and his influence
has been felt far beyond philosophy itself, and in every age. Because his life
is widely considered paradigmatic not only for the philosophic life but, more
generally, for how anyone ought to live, Socrates has been encumbered with the
adulation and emulation ordinarily reserved for religious figures - strange for
someone who tried so hard to make others do their own thinking and for someone
convicted and executed on the charge of irreverence toward the gods. Certainly,
he was impressive, so impressive that many others were moved to write about
him. He was born at 469bce and died at 399bce. He died because of not being
nice to the god.
The principle of
the Socratic method is that students learn through the use of critical
thinking, reasoning, and logic. This technique involves finding holes in their
own theories and then patching them up. In law school specifically, a professor
will ask a series of Socratic questions after having a student summarize a
case, including relevant legal principles associated with the case. Professors
often manipulate the facts, or the legal principles associated with the case to
demonstrate how the resolution of the case can change greatly if even one fact
changes. The goal is for students to solidify their knowledge of the case by
thinking critically under pressure.
In Greek
mythology, Apollo is the god of the sun, light, music, and poetry. He is the
son of Zeus and Leto. Dionysus is the god of grape harvest and making wine,
orchards and fruit, vegetation, insanity, ritual madness. I am surprised that
there is even a god of wine, so I am guessing that he isn’t very good God since
wine isn’t a healthy drink and he is also the god of insanity and ritual
madness. Apollo on the other hand would probably make a very good God, since he
is the god of sun which gives all life on earth.
Introspection
means to examine or observes their own mental and emotional process. This type
of treatment makes patients aware of their own mental state. It can’t help
them, understand themselves better, and maybe even cure their mental illness.
First, Sophocles
is not a god. He is one of three ancient Greek tragedians, the other two are
Aeschylus and Euripides. Has written over 100 plays but only some has been
preserved till today (including: Ajax, Antigone and Electra). According to the
new Oxford dictionary, Catharsis means the process of releasing, and thereby
providing relief from, strong or repressed emotions. J
osef
Breuer and Sigmund Freud discovered catharsis in 1895. This, basically just
releasing strong emotions through art.
Mythology is a collection of myths,
especially one belonging to a particular religion. A mess is a story that is
passed on and is usually false. An observation of an object usually providing
recognition of somebody or something. Usually used to prove something.
Catharses
means the process of releasing
and
thereby
providing relief from
strong emotions. This would include hitting something because you're mad or
just listening to music to relieve stress.
In the story Antigone
written by Sophocles, Antigone is determined to bury Polyneices even if it
means Breaking the law. In Mulan, Mulan tries to take his father's place in the
war because she doesn't want her father to get hurt. Both stories’ protagonists
is trying to help their family even though it's against the law, they show true
love to their family and will do anything to help them.
Hercules was once put under
a spell and accidentally murder his own wife and two sons. In Harry Potter,
Voldemort murdered his own father, Harry's parents and godfather, and so many
more. These characters have gone mad. They have killed their own family
members. Both characters have gone mad and killed their family.
Pegasus was born right at
Medusa’s death when Perseus killed her. He came out of the wound that killed
Medusa (his so-called mom). Pegasus and Buckbeak have many similar points for
example they are both mythical creatures and they can both fly. They both
represent positive emotions. Pegasus was even a god of hope.
Now for some
movie comparisons. Jackie Chan is an expert at Marshall arts. But has also
suffered a lot from the fights that he attended. He suffered many injuries,
including spinal damage, broken teeth, and dislocated shoulders. Charlie
Chaplin suffered from having limited speech, sight and hearing. He also
suffered from many strokes leading to his death.
In Snow White
and the seven dwarves thought that Snow White had died, they are all very
unhappy. Toy story, woody thought Bo dead. But he ends up, very surprised when
he sees Bo and the antique shop. In Snow White, the prince and the seven
dwarves, were all startled when they saw Snow White come back to life again.
Both movies are
about war for power and both story’s protagonist are struggling to find what is
most important to them. They all must face the same challenges that war brings
them. However, the war in Black panther is a fictional story, the war in Birth
of Nation is based on the real US Civil War. They also happened at different
times and the message is very different.
Thomas Cruise is
still alive today but during the 1900’s, he was the famous actor. Douglas
Fairbanks is also a very good actor. He mostly just acts silent films like
Robin Hood. However, he died on December 12, 1939. They both were good at
acting and has done it for their whole life. They also wrote some movies as
well.
There are some
major differences between the two films. First, talkies are a type of movie
that includes dialogue, music, and other forms of sound. The Jazz Singer
however is a musical produced by Darryl F. Zanuck and is 90 minutes long. So,
we can say that the jazz singer is a type of talkies.
