Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Psychology Everyday Life Such being the nature and scope of psychology, the ques tion that next presents itself is: what is the use of psychology? What possible service can it render us to study psychology The answer is not difficult. Our entire waking life is devoted to activities which realize certain aims, to the forming of resolutions or the carrying out of purposes. At least half probably far more than half with most people - of our aims, resolutions, and purposes involve in a greater or less degree reference also to the activities of other people, involve co-operating with other people or opposing them, protecting them or protecting ourselves against them, advising or educating, checking or punishing them. Our whole active life, therefore, may be said to be devoted to the controlling and modifying of our behaviour by ourselves or others, or the controlling and modifying of the behaviour of other people by us, and we study behaviour in order through the better understanding of it to be able better to modify and control it.

Download or read book Psychology in Daily Life Classic Reprint written by Carl Emil Seashore and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-01-12 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Psychology in Daily Life The desire to apply this knowledge reflects the stress of the practical temper; the need of adapta tion of the mental equipment to the complex con ditions of modern life is insistent. Mental econ omy enforces the importance of shaping career to capacity; the conservation of mental resources en ters vitally into the problems of national welfare. The varied liability of the mind to defect and decay, to distortion and vagary, to degeneration and re version, sets in relief the critical importance of san ity, which is a eugenic endowment exercised in a wholesome environment. From these several sources there has resulted a sense of psychological value by which to gauge the worth of the educa tional and cultural provisions which society organ izes for the maintenance of its cherished ends. Furthermore, the ready intercourse of mankind has conferred a cosmopolitan and an humanitarian out look, mingling and comparing, while yet contrast ing, national and local standards and ideals. The products of intellectual, as of other achievements, are seen to belong not to one race or to one era or to one order of culture. The beginnings of mind in the animal world, the growth of mind in child hood and in the race, contribute notably to broaden the conception of its mature capacity and its po tential future.

Download or read book Daily Life Psychology Classic Reprint written by Arthur Adolphus Lindsay and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-19 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Daily Life Psychology From dependable medical history. I have the following. A young man had a hemorrhage from his lungs occurring on his birthday. This came again on his next birthday and on each succeeding anniversary until this had happened ten times. He died from the effects on the tenth occasion. The practice of our psychological methods is based upon what we denominate, post passive suggestions. Meaning that the suggestion is not to be fulfilled during passivity but at some future time. In the analysis of the above phenomenon we disclose the law of suggestion (the introduction of a picture into the soul) and soul expectancy. There may have been organic cause justifying the first bleed ing of the lungs which became associated in the man's subconscious with his birthday. The sub conscious is not like the conscious which forgets the former retains the pictures as they are related to each other and will produce the fulfillments in the corresponding relationship. The association of ideas was sufficient suggestion to cause the soul, the subconscious, to repeat the experience and yet there was no picture to call for the discharge of blood from the lungs on any other date and the phenomenon appeared only on the date called for in the images in the soul of the young man.

Download or read book The Psychology Everyday Life written by James Drever and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-14 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Psychology Everyday Life The Psychology of Everyday Life might rightly be considered as covering the major portion of the field of modern psychology. This fact the author has kept in view throughout. The time has now come when the ordinary educated man desires some closer acquaintance with this science, which has so long represented a rather mysterious region, into which he has hardly ever dared to seek to penetrate - an attitude encouraged by the apparent aloofness of the older psychology from the pursuits and interests of daily life. The aloofness has in recent times disappeared. The work of the modern psychologist touches daily life at many points. What one might designate the 'psychologist's creed' is no longer professed merely by the psychologist - the belief, that is, that for all those arts and sciences which are concerned with the human factor in the world process in any of its phases the science of psychology is as fundamental as is the science of physics for all those arts and sciences which are concerned with physical processes. The feeling of mystery too is fast yielding to a genuine desire for more knowledge. This little book has been written with the object of satisfying this very reasonable desire. It is not an elementary textbook of psychology; nor is it a popular account of some of the marvels of psychology with all the psychology left out. It is popular, indeed, in the sense of being intended for the general reader, but from first to last it is a serious attempt to present, as far as possible in non-technical language, the main facts of the science so far as these touch the life of the man in the street.

Download or read book The Elements of Psychology Classic Reprint written by David R. Major and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Elements of Psychology This book is designed to serve as a text for stu dents who are pursuing a first course in psychology. It aims to present in an elementary way, and within a small compass, the more easily observed facts of our mental life together with the generally accepted principles of their explanation. Its field is chiefly the study of the normal, adult, human mind, and so may be described as an introduction to what is known as General Psychology. In these days, 'the winter of our discontent, ' the writer of a first book in psychology may follow one of three courses: he may appear as 'the champion of the structural psychology' or as the advocate of a psychology in terms of behavior or he may proceed after the manner of the eclectic, without special re gard to the systematic agreement of the topics and matter selected. In the preparation of the present text, the writer followed the third course, and a word of explanation seems in place. It is clear that many of the topics that belong to an introductory survey of psychology lend them selves easily and naturally to the functional method of treatment, while certain other topics, no less im portant in a first book, invite rather a structural treatment. It is clear, moreover, that the student may get important side lights from the biological, physiological, genetic and other points of view.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.
