    Study Notes

    Spiritual Self/Mental Self

    • Intelligence is the ability to handle new and complex situations effectively.
    • It involves analyzing, evaluating, assessing, judging, understanding people, objects, and symbols.
    • Alfred Binet, a French psychologist, considered intelligence a combination of mental capacities.
    • This includes the ability to perform cognitive tasks, understand definitions of words, and follow instructions.

    Nature and Nurture in Development of Intelligence

    • Nature refers to genetic and hereditary factors, including physical appearance and personality traits.
    • Nurture encompasses environmental variables like childhood experiences and how one is raised.
    • Interactionism suggests that heredity and environment interact.

    Theories of Intelligence

    • Howard Gardner proposed multiple intelligences, including spiritual intelligence, which involves:
    • Verbal linguistic (language proficiency)
    • Logical-mathematical (proficiency in math)
    • Musical (producing and appreciating rhythm, pitch, timber)
    • Interpersonal (understanding people).
    • Robert Sternberg's triarchic theory of intelligence includes analytical, creative, and practical intelligence.
    • Raymond Cattell distinguished between fluid (abstract reasoning independent of prior learning) and crystallized intelligences (knowledge gained through prior learning.)

    Learning and Better Student

    • Learning is a relatively permanent change in behavior.
    • Factors affecting learning include usage, relevance, experiences, and behavioral consequence.
    • Edward Thorndike's laws of learning include readiness, exercise, and effect (repetition, approval).
    • Ivan Pavlov's classical conditioning and Burrhus Frederick Skinner's operant conditioning (rewards and punishments) are crucial behavioral learning principles.
    • Albert Bandura's modeling and imitation emphasize the importance of observation in learning.

    Motivation and Setting Goals for Success

    • Motivation theories include drive-reduction, incentive, instinct, cognitive, arousal, and humanistic approaches.
    • Drive-reduction involves internal pushes that lead a person to do things.
    • Instinct theory explains motivations like responses that come naturally.
    • Cognitive theory explains how expectations and values influence goals while arousal theory emphasizes human's needs for optimal arousal level.
    • Humanistic theories focus on meeting one's needs and physiological needs. (Maslow's hierarchy of needs)

    Healthcare and Stress Management

    • Stress is how the body deals with demands.
    • Lazarus defines stress as situations that are threatening and exceed resources.
    • Stress can be eustress (positive) or distress (negative).
    • Major stressors are major life changes, while minor stressors are everyday occurrences.
    • Stressors can cause burnout and exhaustion.
    • Types of needs include those for achievement, affiliation, and power.
    • Self-fulfilling prophecy explains how self-definitions can affect behavior.

    Coping with Stress

    • Coping mechanisms involve problem-focused coping (changing the problem) and emotion-focused coping (managing the reaction).
    • Mental hygiene methods improve mental well-being which include physical, mental, emotional, and social rest.
    • Sensory rest helps to unplug and reduce external stimuli.
    • Spiritual rest fosters deep connection and belonging.
