Objective: 1-2. Distinguish the different careers in psychology (clinical, counseling, developmental, educational, experimental, human factors, industrial-organizational, personality, and psychometric)   1-3. Trace the growth of psychology with specific attention to structuralism and functionalism in the early years.

Structuralism: Study of Psychology as a Science The study of conscious experiences can be broken down into its basic elements, much as a physical phenomenon can be viewed as consisting of chemical structures, that can in turn be broken down into basic elements.

Functionalism: The view that the studies the functions (or how a part of the brain works) in order to help us adapt to the environment..

Behaviorism: “the scientific study of observable behavior”

Humanism: Humanism investigates how current environmental influences and needs such as love acceptance being satisfied can nurture or limit our growth potential.

Cognitive Neuroscience: The study of attention, memory, language processing, perception, problem solving, and thinking through neural mechanisms underlying cognition.

Are our human traits present at birth, or do they develop through experience? Nature vs. Nurture The interplay between genetics and environment on the development of a certain trait. Epigenetics: Nature vs. Nurture
