Download or read book Psicolog a del aprendizaje y la memoria written by León Correa, Esteban and published by Editorial Abya - Yala. This book was released on 2022-05-27 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Qué significa realmente aprender? ¿Qué es en verdad la memoria? El aprendizaje es un proceso complejo que tiene una relación muy estrecha con la memoria. No se puede decir que un alumno que memoriza las respuestas de un examen haya aprendido, pero si un estudiante no es capaz de almacenar determinada información, tampoco podrá aprender. A veces, el aprendizaje puede darse de forma inconsciente como se ha evidenciado en los estudios del condicionamiento clásico (muchos de nuestros miedos irracionales pueden ser explicados de esta manera). Mientras que la memoria también puede ser inconsciente ¿o acaso debemos pensar cómo mover las piernas para caminar o la boca y la lengua para hablar? A lo largo de los años, muchos filósofos y científicos han tratado de identificar las mejores técnicas para comprender cómo funcionan el aprendizaje y la memoria, y los mejores modelos para explicarlas. Este libro es un camino fascinante desde las primeras teorías hasta los hallazgos más recientes, y pretende ofrecer una visión fresca y muy completa para que el lector pueda responder a sus interrogantes mientras se entretiene haciéndolo.

Book excerpt: La investigación es una de las actividades más gratificantes que existen para todas aquellas personas que se dedican a la educación en sus diferentes niveles, primero porque es un reto intelectual para el académico que decide enfrentarse a los procesos epistemológicos y metodológicos, lo cual no es fácil porque implica una solida formación en las formas de pensamiento que la humanidad ha desarrollado y en segundo lugar porque el investigador se encuentra en la disyuntiva de asumir una postura ante la realidad que se le presenta y tratar de explicarla para mejorarla. El presente libro se compone de una serie de ensayos de profesores-investigadores que nos cuentan sus experiencias de cómo desde la Universidad del Valle de México, Región Estado de México y Morelos, abordaron el difícil camino de hacer investigación y despertar la curiosidad científica en sus alumnos.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of the History of Psychology Global Perspectives written by David B. Baker and published by OUP USA. This book was released on 2012 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The science and practice of psychology has evolved around the world on different trajectories and timelines, yet with a convergence on the recognition of the need for a human science that can confront the challenges facing the world today. Few would argue that the standard narrative of the history of psychology has emphasized European and American traditions over others, but in today's global culture, there is a greater need in psychology for international understanding. This volume describes the historical development of psychology in countries throughout the world. Contributors provide narratives that examine the political and socioeconomic forces that have shaped their nations' psychologies. Each unique story adds another element to our understanding of the history of psychology. The chapters in this volume remind us that there are unique contexts and circumstances that influence the ways in which the science and practice of psychology are assimilated into our daily lives. Making these contexts and circumstances explicit through historical research and writing provides some promise of greater international insight, as well as a better understanding of the human condition.

Download or read book The Principles of Psychology Volume 1 of 2 written by William James and published by . This book was released on 2023-06-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of William James' masterwork, The Principles of Psychology, contains his original notes, illustrations, tables and charts which clarify the theory described and arguments made. Appearing in 1890, The Principles of Psychology was a landmark text which established psychology as a serious scientific discipline. William James' compiled a convincing, lengthy and broad thesis, devoting detail and vigorous analysis in every chapter. The text's comprehensiveness and superb presentation played a pivotal role in bringing the science of mental health closer toward the scholarly mainstream. The entire book is set out intuitively: there are two volumes, each of which has a certain number of chapters. While some chapters have sub-sections, James is careful not to make his textbook dry or convoluted in organisation. Each chapter introduces, discusses and concludes on a particular subject - whether it be the role of psychology as an academic and medical discipline, or the various functions of the human brain. Well-read and familiar with the books of his forerunners, William James nevertheless bristles with originality. Although the reader might be tempted to set aside the book for fear of it being outdated, this attitude is unjustified: the ideas pioneered by James remain as intellectually fresh and thought provoking as they did at the conclusion of the 19th century. The one area of the book belonging firmly in the past - namely the neurological experiments upon animals - stands distinct from the remainder of the principle text. Although the science of psychology has progressed enormously since William James published this book, The Principles of Psychology remains a supplementary text in many psychology courses in universities around the world. Concepts which James established, and his personal work on the spiritual element of human psychology, have and continue to inspire new books and theses by professionals and scholars in the field. William James also summarizes and presents the ideas of other, earlier figures working in the field, some of whom he admires, others he considers with disdain. All however receive hearing and citation in The Principles of Psychology. The aim for retrospective richness, as well as breadth across every major subject important in the field, further sets this textbook apart. Unlike other, abridged versions of The Principles of Psychology, this edition contains the entire text together with the many drawings and diagrams James appended in an effort to communicate better his notions. His notes are also present, and are organised and appended at the conclusion of each chapter for the reader to conveniently reference.

Book excerpt: This book presents a cultural history of psychology that analyzes the diverse contexts in which psychological knowledge and practices have developed in Latin America. The book aims to contribute to the growing effort to develop a theoretical knowledge that complements the biographical perspective centered on the great figures, with a polycentric history that emphasizes the different cultural, social, economic and political phenomena that accompanied the emergence of psychology. The different chapters of this volume show the production of historians of psychology in Latin America who are part of the Ibero-American Network of Researchers in History of Psychology (RIPeHP, in the Portuguese acronym for "Rede Iberoamericana de Pesquisadores em História da Psicologia"). They present a significant sample of the research carried out in a field that has experienced a strong development in the region in the last decades. The volume is divided into two parts. The first presents comparative chapters that address cross-cutting issues in the different countries of the region. The second part analyzes particular aspects of the development of psychology in seven countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Paraguay and Peru. Throughout these chapters the reader will find how psychology made its way through dictatorial governments, phenomena of violence and internal armed conflict, among others. Dimensions that include rigorous analysis ranging from ancestral practices to current geopolitical knowledge of the Latin American region. ​History of Psychology in Latin America - A Cultural Approach is an invaluable resource for historians of psychology, anywhere in the world, interested in a polycentric and critical approach. Since its content is part of the "cultural turn in psychology" it is also of interest to readers interested in the social and human sciences in general.
