First Post of 2008-2009

28-45—Methods of Psychology; Scientific Method

That is your homework for Tuesday.

I also wanted to let you know that there was some missing concepts from our discussion today over the perspectives. The list from the the agenda today is below.

§ Psychodynamic/Psychoanalytic (childhood experiences and unconscious conflicts)
§ Behavioral (reinforced depressive behavior/modeled and imitated behavior)
§ Humanistic (View of self is negated by negative view of others—conflict changes self-perception)
§ Biological (genetically predisposed and/or neurotransmitters-chemical imbalance)
§ Cognitive (negative thinking needs to be adjusted)
§ Socio-cultural (age, culture, sub-culture, gender issues related to depression)

If you email me at the email address I sent you this tab from, I will give you some extra credit. If you read this far and are this detailed, you deserve to get extra credit. Be sure to copy this paragraph and put it in the email :-)
