Study Notes

Introduction to Psychology

  • Psychology is the study of the mind, thoughts, and behaviours in living things.
  • Psychodynamic theory is an approach to therapy focusing on resolving a patient's conflicted conscious and unconscious feelings.
  • Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theory suggests that early childhood experiences influence behaviour.
  • The unconscious mind is accessed through free association (writing words associated with another).
  • The unconscious mind processes information we are unaware of.
  • The conscious mind processes information we are aware of.
  • The conscious mind consists of the id, ego, and superego.
    • The id is instinctual thinking (pleasure principle).
    • The ego is rational thinking (reality principle).
    • The superego is the moral centre.
  • Carl Jung believed the unconscious has personal and collective components.
    • Personal unconscious is unique to individuals
    • Collective unconscious is inherited from ancestors.
  • Jung's work contributed to personality concepts like introversion and extraversion.
  • Behaviourism focuses on observable behaviours and how experiences condition behaviours

Behaviourism

  • Behaviourism studies behaviours caused by conditioning.
  • Changing behaviours through reconditioning helps to treat patients.
  • Classical conditioning—Ivan Pavlov—associates things through learned responses
  • Operant conditioning—B.F. Skinner—how rewards/punishments influence behaviour.

Cognitive Psychology

  • Cognition involves mental processes (thinking, knowing, remembering).
  • Albert Bandura's cognitive revolution considers the person's background in situations.
  • Individuals learn behaviour by observing others.
  • Jean Piaget created Stages of Cognitive Development.
  • Erik Erikson described cognitive abilities developing through adulthood.

Influential Psychological Experiments

  • Asch's Conformity Study—Conformity increases with pressure.
  • Kitty Genovese's Murder—Bystander Effect: presence of others reduces helping.
  • Little Albert experiment—Classical conditioning and fear development.
  • Stanford Prison Study—Behaviour is situational, people conform to certain roles in certain conditions.
  • Stanley Milgram Experiment—Obedience to authority.

Ethical Issues in Psychology

  • Ethics—Respect for the dignity of persons, responsible caring, integrity of relationships, responsibility to society.
  • Unethical experiments include Little Albert, Stanford Prison, and the Stanley Milgram study.
  • Landis’ Facial Expressions Experiment studied facial expressions, not ethical in methodologies.
  • The Monster Study tested the impact of speech development, unethical methods used.

Additional Topics from the Text

  • David Reimer—gender is a matter of socialization, not biology.
  • Monkey Drug Trials—drug and alcohol abuse effects in animals.
  • The Aversion Project—attempted to remove homosexuality (Unethical method).
  • The Surrogate Mother Experiment—social isolation effects in monkeys.
  • Negative Automatic Thought Patterns—Negative thinking patterns when approaching negative situations (common patterns detailed).
  • Elizabeth Loftus—false memories.
  • Methods of Reappraisal—positive reframing, evidence, extreme language
  • Overview of Sociology
  • Social Institution
  • Social Variables
  • What is Sociology?
  • Origins of Sociology, Ibn Khaldun
  • Development of Modern European Sociology
  • What Was Happening in Society?
  • Herbert Spencer
  • Types of Sociology (Functionalism, Conflict Theory, Symbolic Interactionism, and Feminism)
  • Structural Functionalism (MACRO)
  • Sociology by approach, traditional
  • Global Societal Issues—Particular to Women (Rape, lack of freedom, etc.)
  • The Isms (Ableism, Ageism, Classism, Heteronormativity, Racism, Sexism, Sizeism)
