This book was released on 2013-09-17 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to Psychology for Medical Students deals with general psychology aimed for medical undergraduate students. The book discusses psychology and its relevance to medicine, particularly on the relation of the mind and the treatment of physical diseases. The authors explain perceiving and imagining; and how perception is dependent on past experience or learning, and the effects of motivation and of mood on perception. The authors also discuss abstract and concrete thinking, emotional use of words, unconscious thinking, creative thinking, learning, and remembering. The unconscious process of forgetting of unwelcome memories is repression, while consciously trying to forget them is suppression. The authors also explain normal conflict, frustration, and reaction to stress including the physical aspects of emotions causing increases in blood pressure, in adrenaline flow, or in blood glucose level. The authors also discuss the hypnotic states, individual susceptibility, the induction of hypnotic states, and their clinical applications. This book is intended for medical undergraduate students, as well as to general readers interested in psychology and human behavior.

Download or read book An Introduction to General Psychology written by Robert Morris Qgden and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to General Psychology The preface of a book is usually an apology for its existence. This one is no exception to the rule. The large number of already available text-books in Psychology makes pertinent the question: Why another? In attempting to justify the appearance of this one, I would first call attention to the need of a growing science, such as Psychology, for constant revision, and the envisagement of its problems from various angles. This has doubtless been the occasion for many of the texts which we already have. The chief motives for the writing of the present book were two. The first of these was to supply a general elementary text-book which would meet the demands of the average student beginner a little more adequately than has been done hitherto. After ten years' experience in teaching a first course in Psychology, I have become convinced that the mode of attack usually followed fails to supply the student with the sort of introduction into the science of mind that will enable him, on the one hand, to connect his Psychology with everyday life, and, on the other hand, to apprehend the bearings of this science upon Philosophy, Education, Sociology and Biology.
