Unique contributions

Limitations

Freud

Stressed the importance of early childhood events, the influence of the unconscious and sexual instincts in the development and formation of personality.

Mental Energy

In Freuds view:

1. All mental energy was derived from the body.

2. Humans only have a limited amount of energy.

3. There is causation for all human behavior.

4. The goal of human behavior is tension-reduction.

as his subjects were mostly Viennese upper-class women; a considerably small portion of human society. Therefore, the data he collected to support his theories would have a large margin of error. Also, one had to take in mind the influence of this historical context on Freud’s own mindset; certainly the Victorian ethics and general European attitude distorted his views on psychology and the human mind.

Jung

Focused on concepts such as the collective unconscious, archetypes and psychological types.

Adler

Believed the core motive behind personality involves striving for superiority, or the desire to overcome challenges and move closer

Horney

Social Psychology: The Effect of Watching Aggressive Interactions on Stress

The Effect of Watching Aggressive Interactions on Stress

The Effect of Watching Aggressive Interactions on Stress

Health psychologists have demonstrated that repeated exposure to aggressive behavior can be stressful (Smith, Bird, & Jones, 1974; Doe, 1989).....

Note that the heading of the Introduction is the title of the paper, rather than the word “Introduction.” In the Introduction, you review numerous studies in the area you are researching. You don’t have to mention everything about the journal articles you cite; just talk about the parts that are relevant to your topic. Ideally, your paper should flow as a cohesive “story” about a certain area of research. That is, you are summarizing the state of research on a given topic; naturally, in order to do that, you need to explain what studies have been done on this topic. If you can integrate your article explanations together to provide a cohesive picture of the research in this area, that's great. Even if your articles contradict each other, you can discuss the dilemma of which viewpoint is the correct one.

Remember, every assertion in the text of your paper must be cited. Remember that most, if not all, of your references should be from empirical journal articles. Empirical journal articles are articles in which the researchers conducted a study or studies. You can find these empirical journal articles through the PsycInfo database, and you can read them in the journal stacks on the second floor of the NSU Alvin Sherman Library. In your paper, citations should include the authors and the year. If the two or more author names are inside parentheses (), you use an “&”. If you use the author names outside of parentheses, you use the word “and.” Here are some examples below:

Researchers have found that parents can read the facial expressions of their own children more accurately than those of other children (Zuckerman & Prewuzman, 1979).

Zuckerman and Prewuzman (1979) found that parents can read the facial expressions of their own children more accurately than those of other children.

Page numbers are not given unless there is a direct quote. Below are some examples if you are quoting the author directly. You should try to keep direct quotes to a minimum; it is much better to paraphrase and put the quote into your own words.

According to a recent study, “one out of six women are sexually assaulted” (Jones & Smith, 1998, p. 32).

The American Multicultural Counseling and Development (AMCD) Multicultural Counseling Competencies have both strengths and limitations

Week 3 Discussion Response

Please no plagiarism and make sure you are able to access all resource on your own before you bid. One of the references must come from Sue, D. W., & Sue, D. (2016). Read a selection of your colleagues’ postings. I need this completed by 03/16/18 at 8pm.

Respond by Day 5 to all of my colleagues’ postings in one or more of the following ways:

Provide an alternative or additional implication of your colleague’s insights.

Share an insight from having read your colleague’s posting.

Note what you have learned and/or any insights you have gained as a result of the comments your colleagues made. If a post already has two responses, you must choose another post.

Please thoroughly read the Discussion Posting and Response Rubric attached to evaluate both the posts and responses. There are four components evaluated for each Discussion Post and Response.

1. Responsiveness to Discussion Question /9

2. Critical Thinking, Analysis, and Synthesis /9

3. Professionalism of Writing /5

4. Responsiveness to Peers /9

To get the highest grade possible, ask yourself if you have SURPASSED the following standards as you re-read your posts BEFORE submitting them:

1. Response to Peers: Do my peer responses indicate that I have read, thought about, and selectively responded to my colleague’s discussion posts in a complex way? Are my responses engaging, insightful, reflective of current events, or relevant to some experience I have had? Rather than just demonstrating agreement with the ideas presented by a colleague, or randomly quoting some resource in order to satisfy a formulaic inclusion of a citation and a reference, you are encouraged to provide an engaging response post which specifically builds upon the ideas of your colleague in an original and substantial manner, including relevant professional resources that go beyond what you are required to read for the course.
