    Study Notes

    Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs

    • Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is a psychological theory that states that humans are motivated to fulfill their needs in a hierarchical order.
    • The hierarchy is arranged in a pyramid, with the most basic needs at the bottom and the most advanced needs at the top.
    • The needs at the bottom of the pyramid must be satisfied before we can move on to the next need.
    • The order of the needs from bottom to top are as follows:
      • Physiological: food, water, health, etc.
      • Safety: free from harm, danger, fear, anxiety, etc.
      • Love/Belonging: having good relationships with friends, family, and significant others.
      • Esteem: achievement, competence, self-respect
      • Self-Actualization: fulfillment of inner potential

    Carl Roger's Self Theory

    • Carl Roger's Self Theory states that each person has a few "selves" that differ from each other.
    • There are three selves:
      • The Ideal Self: who the person wishes they were.
      • The Self-Image: who the person thinks they are.
      • The True Self: who the person really is.
    • Ideally, a healthy individual accepts who they really are and moves freely towards who they wish to be. This is known as Congruence.
    • An unhealthy individual rejects who they really are and is dictated by an ideal self that is much too harsh and not something they personally chose. This is known as Incongruence.
    • Incongruence can occur due to Conditions of Worth, where people learn they must work for love and acceptance. This leads to denial of the True Self.

    Humanistic Approach and Processing

    • The Humanistic approach to psychology emphasizes the importance of the individual's subjective experience and freedom of choice.
    • Processing questions are designed to encourage individuals to reflect on their personal experiences and beliefs.
    • The Humanistic approach emphasizes the importance of each individual's unique experiences and how these impact their understanding of the world.
    • It suggests that our behavior is determined by our individual choices, not by external forces, and that we have the potential for growth and self-actualization.
    • The Humanistic approach is used in various fields, including education, psychotherapy, and social work, and contributes to our understanding of human behavior and its complexities.

    NCOFI - Nature vs Nurture, Conscious vs Unconscious, Observable vs Internal, Free Will vs Determinism, Individual vs Universal

    • This is a framework used to understand the complexity of human nature.
    • The Humanistic approach prioritizes the "Individual" within this framework.
    • The understanding of the Individual is often used in combination with the principles of "Free Will," "Internal," and "Conscious."
    • The Humanistic approach emphasizes the importance of considering the individual's unique experiences and perspectives.

    Love and Relationships

    • Love is a complex emotion that can arise through proximity and chance.
    • We often develop love and attraction to those we are closest to physically.
    • We learn to love ourselves by surrounding ourselves with people who accept us for who we truly are, regardless of our physical appearance or adherence to social expectations.
    • Learning to accept ourselves for who we are is critical for personal growth and emotional well-being.

    Overcoming Failure

    • Failure is a learning opportunity.
    • When we experience failure, we should be kind to ourselves, and understand that our brains are capable of adapting and learning from our mistakes.
    • It is important to not be overly critical of ourselves, but focus on what we can do better in the future.

    Creativity

    • Creativity is a matter of experience.
    • Our brains are capable of learning and combining experiences to develop novel and creative ideas.
    • We must expose ourselves to different experiences and ideas to enhance our creative potential.

    Empathy and Understanding

    • Empathy and understanding are essential for nurturing healthy relationships.
    • Developing empathy allows us to better understand the perspectives of others and offer them support.
    • A supportive environment allows us to create a safe space for ourselves to explore new ideas and express our true selves.
