PSYCH – Ms. Shirley UNIT 1 - History/Evolution of Psychology The Evolution of Psychology From Speculation to Science: How Psychology Developed Psychology Today: Vigorous & Diversified

Why do I like the people, food, or music that I like? Or, why do I NOT like certain things or have an irrational fear of certain things, like spiders, heights, or public speaking? Why do I feel a sudden boost in mood when my favorite song comes on the radio? Why did I cheat on my test… my diet, my boyfriend or my girlfriend? Why do I get so tired or maybe bored in a certain class? (of course not in psychology though) Have you ever wondered…

Or… Have you ever wondered? Are first-born children more driven to achieve? Only children? The middle child? Does handwriting offer any clues to my personality? Do my dreams really mean anything? Does hypnosis really work? Why my family or my relationships look so dysfunctional at times and what to do about it?

What is Psychology? What is your definition? How would you define it? Write it out. Then we will share it & improve the definition.

What is Psychology? Psyche – meaning the soul Logos – referring to the study of a subject “The study of the mind.” Has a foundation in philosophy & physiology Psychology is defined as the scientific study of the behavior of individuals & their mental processes.

Be as objective as possible, avoid any judgements or inferences about physical appearance or behavior. Volunteer C: You will keep the time. 3 minutes. Go! Experiment!

Big Issues in Psychology Stability vs. Change Rationality vs. Irrationality Nature vs. Nurture

Stability vs. Change Do we change over time in distinct and universal stages or do we basically remain the same drooling, slobbering, simple beings of our beginnings? Do these things change? Personality traits, sense of humor, tastes, etc… Can a shy child become the teenage class clown? Do we become adults or are we always just big kids? Do our personalities change in different situations?

Rationality vs. Irrationality Are we wise or not? Why do we do things that are bad for us when we know they are bad? We screw up, we make mistakes, and we lose sight of good judgment But, we often don’t change behavior, we don’t seem rational

Nature vs. Nurture Am I the way I am because I was born that way or because of my surroundings? Biology (genes) vs. Experience Can I ever be like these people, or does nature give me limitations?
