a little more about Pavlov. I find Pavlov and his research very interesting, and I find it even more interesting that people only think of Pavlov for his theories of conditioning. There are many more things that make up Pavlov’s contribution to psychology, including other psychologists that we would not even know about without Pavlov. This topic fits into this class because the entire section of 3.2 is about Pavlov. I am hoping that this will bring up some new information about Ivan Pavlov that…

well as the Behaviourist approach. Firstly I will be looking at the Psychodynamic Approach. A strength of using this approach is that although it and a lot of its practises are seen as highly controversial it has had great influence on the world of psychology. An example of this would be the psychodynamic research methods of Sigmund Freud and the many psychologists it has inspired over the years. Freud was the creator of psychoanalysis, a set of psychological and psychotherapeutic theories that…

After reading the three comments sent to me by Stephanie, her mother, and the teacher, I have come up with some possible explanations and solutions for her behavioral problem. There could be several reasons why a child has a hard time behaving in school. However, I’m going explain three psychological theories that could help explain why this might be happening. Starting with Behaviorism, then Social-Learning Theory, and lastly, Cognitive-Developmental Theory. Using the best one of the three…

I recently attended a group observation at Project Point of Light in Shippenville, Pennsylvania. The overall experience was a positive one. It was very interesting to talk to the members and hear their sides of the story. They truly are just human beings and I believe that meeting with them and having an opportunity to talk to them has somewhat changed my view of sex offenders overall. Though I am still confused by their behaviors, which is somewhat difficult to overcome, but I am more…

Interpersonal competence gives someone the knowledge to choose the correct way to communicate in the appropriate situations (McCornack,21). Since writing my journals and expanding my knowledge on communication, I have learned how to better communicate in different situations. Three things that writing my journals have helped me better understand is self disclosure, perception, and Self disclosure is when someone shares private information with another person (McCornack, 63). Through writing my…

Visual Metaphor When we start out, few of us know exactly what we want to be or where we want to end up. I choose a Maze as my visual metaphor because the fashion program is like a maze to me. I as a student in the program feel confusing, lost, understanding that the progress, that how you should feel in the first week of call but it’s been 7 week now I still have that feel of confusing, it’s like disorienting trail that that I follow in which every decision could mean life (right)or…

Phases of Adlerian Play Therapy In Adlerian Play Therapy (AdPT), there are a total of four phases or procedures in the play therapy session. The four phases of AdPT are establishing relationship, investigate the lifestyle of the child, gain insight and administer reorientation and reeducation (Kottman, 2001). In the Adlerian Play Therapy, the therapists will include parent consultation because they believed that parent contributes greatly to the development of the child. They served as place…

A psychological analysis of Robert Frost 's "Birches" revealed a deep seated issue of finding one 's way through life, and contemplation of the ability to reset it. He manages to complete this through a mastered ability to describe vivid and personal descriptions of nature as a metaphor for the complexities of human life. "The ambiguity Frost finds in nature becomes a metaphor for the ambiguity he finds in human experience." (Wendy Perkins para. 2) It is very common in criticism of Robert…

Prejudice is a negative attitude toward a group or negative behavior towards members of a group. Prejudice has and seems to always be an issue that we face in today’s society. There are many different reasons why prejudice occurs and why they still exist today. Including past racial profiling, stereotypes and teaching that are passes on to each generations. Views on groups and types of people can be passed on through family beliefs, yet they all had to have started somewhere in that family.…

Mental Health policies within Public Health are more prominent today than they were ten years ago, however, there are still a lot of gaps when it comes to children with mental illnesses. “It is estimated that one of every five children and adolescents in the United States has a mental disorder” (Kataoka, 2002). All across the United States, different states have different policies regarding access and availability to mental health professionals. Many states have policies requiring children to…
