Diagnosing the Defense One of the hallmarks of being human that separates people from other species is the constant need for understanding the surrounding world. In order to feel as if they are in control, people must find a sense of mastery over the universe and their environment, and this is done by interpreting information they receive. Simply put, an interpretation is an explanation of a certain phenomenon. Psychologist Leslie Bell, uses this sort of interpretation to understand why women feel like they have less sexual freedom when society seemingly gives them more in her work Hard to Get: Twenty-Something Women and the Paradox of Sexual Freedom. Similarly, another psychologist Martha Stout, attempts to interpret why her patients disassociate…

This poem focuses on a young man named Komunyakaa who struggles with hiding his grief after fighting in the Vietnam War. The setting of the poem is at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, where Komunyakaa first experiences difficulties with expressing his battle with his depression. This is evident as the poem begins with a sad tone, and Komunyakaa displays a sense of sadness as he views the granite wall with the names of all the slain military victims. You can instantly conclude that he is battling with ways to express his emotions as he is constantly trying to keep himself from crying and showing his true emotions. As the poem progresses, he seems to become a bit rattled at the shadow of a woman, as it seems that she is “wiping” names from the wall.…
Andrea Roosa Pre-Health Book Report What Doctor’s Feel: How Emotions Affect the Practice of Medicine By: Danielle Ofri “Positive emotions tend to be associated with a more global view of a situation (“the forest”) and more flexibility in problem solving. Negative emotions tend to diminish the importance of the bigger picture in favor of the smaller details (“the trees”).

Speculate as to why emotional trauma can result in memory loss. Include in your speculation your ideas regarding each of the major aspects of trauma discussed in class, including emotional overwhelm, stress, repressed memory, intrusive thoughts and the impact of emotion on the memory process. We all experience stress or trauma at some times in our lives and our minds process this in a certain way. When something frightening, shocking, sad or dangerous happens to us, our bodies and minds process the experience by having a reaction. Some people have the sensation of complete shock and are unable to understand what is occurring.…
When experiencing a traumatic event, our psychological immune systems responds by “cooking up the facts”, meaning taking the facts of the situation and turning the negative aspects of it and turning them into positive views. Gilbert says that within us all is a psychological immune system, which serves the purpose to protect us from “grave threats” which represent “large-scale assaults on our happiness” (Gilbert 139). When a situation is threatening our happiness, an individual is determined to fight for the security of their happiness, even if it means having to lie to ourselves to find it. Gilbert refers to this process as cooking the facts, a subconscious behavior that can only be successful if the individual is unaware of the process.…

A cognitive psychologist wants to know how received information leads to responses, how people solve problems, and what makes some received information create distress in a person’s life. Currently, cognitive behavioral therapy is the most common use for therapists and psychologists. In the past, I have gotten myself worked up over an upcoming exam. After studying for a couple of weeks I knew I was prepared, but continued to feel nervous and anxious about the possibility of failing the exam. A therapist would want to know why my mind continued to go towards negative feelings after being prepared, and knowing I should not direct my mind towards…

Within the concept of emotions, integral and incidental emotions are distinguished. The first ones are produced within the situation in which an individual decides and are thus relevant to the respective decision; in contrast, the latter do not arise from the decision at hand. Rather they carry over from another, preceding situation or incident and are basically irrelevant to the actual decision – at least from a normative perspective (Bachkirov 2015; Lerner, Li, Valdesolo & Kassam 2015). An example of an incidental emotion might be the following: If a manager argues with his wife/her husband in the morning right before conducting a job-interview at work, he might feel angry or sad. Later, this emotion, arisen in a totally different setting…
