“Cognitive perspective emphasizes thought patterns, memory, perceptions, decision making, and problem solving to explain behavior and thinking” (class notes). In the movie Tom Ripley thought patterns and decision making of always killing the person who knew too much of him or knew he killed Dickie was his way to explain his behavior and thinking. Such as he did when Frank was getting close to suspecting he killed Dickie. Or when Peter caught him in the lie of kissing the girl on the boat. Also, when Marge knew Tom killed Dickie instead of it being a suicide.…
For a start, chapter five was very informative and a pleasure to read. It reconnected all the dots that steered me in the direction/profession of social work. As Rhodes & Rhodes (2015), states “Social class is to rank with others in terms of wealth, power, and prestige. This ranking separates people into different groups that experience different opportunities in life and different ways of looking at the world” (pg. 225). With that being said, this reignites the topic of homelessness that I chose for my term paper.…
I support an integrative approach. However, using Integrates Seven Perspectives is the new way of combining multiple perspectives by zooming out for a total picture (Cacioppo & Freberg, 2013, pp33). Single, perspectives can only give us parts of the answer. Example: A better comprehensive perspective on drug abuse is to understand the whole pattens using multiple perspectives.…
Life needs foundational assumptions and framework of guiding principles to provide thinking with a basic stability, shape and structure. Accordingly, worldviews are the single greatest influence on the way I interpret my experiences and respond to those experiences. This can be characterized by the fact that individuals who live in the same neighborhood with very similar experiences of the world around them can come to such radically different conclusion pertaining a given…
Transcendentalism Comparison Essay In the late 1820s and the 1830s, there was an intellectual movement called transcendentalism, the forerunner of this school of thought was Ralph Waldo Emerson. Throughout his writings and multiple essays, he explained it as a way of life in which all knowledge is derived from within and from nature.

Without a doubt everything we do in life is uncertain. This ambiguous trait of life is what keeps life full of interest, but this also provides significance and value in the real world. However, up front the duality of human nature should be taken into account. Duality in psychology is important for our lives as it is a ‘twofold’ division. There can be two separate and independent forces or ways in order to think but at the end of the day both are equal, and have the same logical reasoning behind it.…
Analysis A multi-dimensional approach to human development and behaviour is beneficial in social work and human services practice as the human condition, and all human experience, is multifaceted and complex. Current knowledge and awareness of social and psychological theories is highly important as well as it must inform decision making in direct practice. This paper will discuss Tony’s inner and outer world, according to Harms (2010), in order to analyse his behaviour with consideration to his complexities. Further, three theories are discussed, including social learning theory, learned helplessness, and attachment theory, to provide a thorough exploration of the contributing factors to Tony’s past and current behaviour.…
Love is one of the most essential emotions in life. People want to feel loved because it brings happiness and warmth to their hearts. Love makes people unconditionally selfless.

(2015), discuss how six different perspectives in psychology can portray a behavior from a different angle.…
Freud’s theory is used by many of the psychologist that study psychodynamic perspective in therapy situations. Some psychologists that study the psychodynamic perspective today began to recommend that the link between neurobiology and psychodynamic concepts should be fully explored. These seven perspectives helped humans analyze thing that happen in our daily lives. If psychology didn’t have the seven perspectives the psychology field would not be as developed. The perspectives are full with the way a person thinks, understands, and processes different…
