Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Outline of Psychobiology This outline is intended to aid those students of psychology who have had no courses in biology covering the morphological and physiological data which are directly contributory to psychology. It is designed to con vey the elementary information which is absolutely necessary, and to Stimu late the student to further reading. Since the time which a psychologist can give to the study of biology is narrowly limited, ' it is essential that strong emphasis should be placed on such details as are of the greatest psychological significance, although this results in a treatment which, from the physiological point of view, is extremely unbalanced. Heretofore, psychologists who have recognized the value of physiology have confined their attention almost exclusively to neurology. This neur ology has been of little use to the psychologist, except as a terminological scheme in which he could restate his psychological facts and speculations. Of late it has been becoming clear that the pressing need in psycho-physi ology is for the study of muscle and gland, and that only through the study of these tissues in their structural and functional relation to nervous tissue can neurology be made psychologically valuable. It is this point of view which has dominated the preparation of this outline. I hope that this book, which was prepared primarily for the use of my own classes, may be of service to other psychologists, at least until a more systematic and comprehensive text becomes available. Since it is, at the time of writing, the first book of its kind, it 'is entitled to the credit, and also to the leniency usually extended to pioneers.

This book was released on 2016-10-01 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines for Experimental Psychology The only justification for the existence of an Outline for Experimental Psychology is to be found in its usefulness. In order to be useful, such a manual should serve several distinct purposes. It should encourage rather than inhibit the enthusiasm of the student who is beginning the study of human nature under controlled conditions; it should assist in giving such a student a general and more or less systematic View of the wide field of psycho logical inquiry; it should constitute a guide rather than an author ity; it should be detailed enough to enable the instructor to give his attention to the student rather than to the implements; with all this, it should allow sufficient freedom to avoid becoming itself the main object of investigation. The outline here presented has seemed to serve these various purposes in my own teaching. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of Physiological: Psychology, a Text-Book of Mental Science IN the early part of 1887 I published the results of sev eral years of research, in a book entitled Elements of Physiological Psychology. The very gratifying reception almost immediately given to this work showed an extended and profound interest in the experimental and physiological study of mental phenomena. The signs of this interest have continued unabated until the present time; and the book has been widely adopted, both in this country and abroad, for private reading and for the instruction of classes. Although the Elements, etc. Did not enter into the detailed history of discoveries and discussion of theories in the field of physiological psychology, it was necessarily somewhat voluminous and technical. For it aimed to give a summary of the entire field and thus to render accessible the data and conclusions to be found, separated, only in scores or hundreds Of larger and smaller monographs.

Download or read book An Outline of Abnormal Psychology Classic Reprint written by James Winfred Bridges and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Outline of Abnormal Psychology This outline presents a fairly complete list of the abnormal mental phenomena, it shows how these phenomena are grouped into the syndromes manifested in the various psychoses and neuroses, and it summarizes briefly the most important etiological facts and explanatory theories of the mental anomalies and diseases. An attempt has been made to present in summary the various aspects of this many-sided subject without disproportionate emphasis or neglect of any topic or theory. The purpose of the outline is to serve as a guide for students of abnormal psychology in the absence of a comprehensive text-book. It is hoped that it will be found useful also by those medical students and students of social service who desire a general survey of this field but who have insufficient time for a regular supervised course or for extensive reading of the very much scattered literature. It should of course be regarded as mainly directive and mnemonic; and the references should be consulted for illustration of facts and exposition of theories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Animals cannot use words to explain whether they feel emotions, and scientific opinion on the subject has been divided. Charles Darwin believed animals and humans share a common core of fear, anger, and affection. Today most researchers agree that animals experience comfort or pain. Around 1900 in the United States, however, where intelligence was the dominant interest in the lab and field, animal emotion began as an accidental question. Organisms ranging from insects to primates, already used to test learning, displayed appetites and aversions that pushed psychologists and biologists in new scientific directions. The Americans were committed empiricists, and the routine of devising experiments, observing, and reflecting permitted them to change their minds and encouraged them to do so. By 1980, the emotional behavior of predatory ants, fearful rats, curious raccoons, resourceful bats, and shy apes was part of American science. In this open-ended environment, the scientists' personal lives--their families, trips abroad, and public service--also affected their professional labor. The Americans kept up with the latest intellectual trends in genetics, evolution, and ethology, and they sometimes pioneered them. But there is a bottom-up story to be told about the scientific consequences of animals and humans brought together in the pursuit of knowledge. The history of the American science of animal emotions reveals the ability of animals to teach and scientists to learn.
Download or read book Psychobiology of Personality written by Marvin Zuckerman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-04-11 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Personality is now understood to be a function of both biological and environmental influences. This revised and updated edition of Psychobiology of Personality describes what is currently known about the biological basis of the primary personality traits, including genetic, neurological, biochemical, physiological, and behavioral influences. Emphasis is placed on understanding the connections between phenomena at these levels. The research discussed makes use of animal models, based on experimental brain research, as well as human clinical and normal personality research. Chapters are devoted to temperament and personality trait structure, psychobiological methods, and each of four major personality traits: extraversion, impulsive, sensation seeking, and aggression. Recent advances in psychobiological methods, such as molecular genetics and brain imaging have enabled us to begin to unravel the genetic and neurological sources of behavior and personality. These advances are discussed in this new edition, making it essential reading for advanced students of psychology and psychiatry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is one person motivated to create a business empire whilst another is inspired to produce a beautiful work of art? Why do some people prefer a quiet life? The Psychobiology of Human Motivation explores what directs our behaviour, from basic physiological needs like hunger and thirst to more complex aspects of social behaviour like altruism. Hugh Wagner explores the limits of biological explanations and shows how humans can influence `basic' physiological drives in order to adapt to a complex social environment.
