    I took a my one and only psychology course freshman year of highschool. I was a dumb kid, and my teacher wasn't the best at making the content interesting (he had no classes, just made us read a textbook then do quizzes), so you could say I didn't learn a lot. It's been years since then but I've been more hungry for knowledge since I've grown.
    Your channel has been a great resource: whether I'm trying to study or understand something for college; or for when I'm just trying to relax and need some light but mind-arousing content (like right now!), your channel always has something to get the job done! Thanks for the work that you do, and thanks for helping me keep that spark of learning in my life!

    Great intro to psychology, Professor Dave. Looking forward to this series. The modern tools we have today to study brain matter, brain waves, and electrochemical activity in the brain in real time have made psychology a much more meaningful field of study today than, say, even 30 years ago. When I was in college, people who said they were studying psychology for their major were practically laughed it, since it was viewed as something akin to "general studies."

      Not sure but please strive aloft with amplitude: psychology often abided by "reliable pattern recognition", unfortunately after 2007 information became un-intuitive, I would thread carefully, al-trough I could plausible be erroneous.
      Undesirable information sources pretenses: Autism = Intellectual Psychosis = Unnecessarily aware schizophrenic = "attacked with body controlling hardware" Wish you the best, and hope you don't get constrained by a myriad psychology's flaws.

      You're not incorrect, I would like to add that complexity comes when the soul is introduced: as it adheres to it's own fabric of logic, it can still function with just a embedded transmogrify capsule adjacent to chemical feeding however that is a truly dishonorable approach.

    It's incorrect to say Ivan Pavlov was a behaviorist. Plavov was a physiologist who studied the digestive system. Classical Conditioning was a serendipitous discovery during that research. Later on, John B. Watson founded Behaviorism, drawing inspiration from Pavlov's results, which showed for the first time that there is an order to learning, not to mention that said results were also empirical and replicable. Watson's Methodological Behaviorism, one of many brands of Behaviorism, for those who care about the difference, was a reaction to the extreme mentalism of the time, which was bogging down psychology with irreplicable results. Kinda like today.

    • @mitkoogrozev
      @mitkoogrozev ปีที่แล้ว

      Exactly what I thought, but I was thinking of Skinner. It seems psychology wend from mind woo woo stuff, to actual science around the behaviorists time, back to mind woo woo today.
      Although since they now study the brain, they kiind of try to make it scientific, but their presumptions and what they focus on is still totally wrong.

    As far as my knowledge is concerned, Wilhelm Wundt is considered to be the founder of structuralism as he introduced it though I would agree that Titchner made it more popular.

    • @dougerfacts4740
      @dougerfacts4740 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I believe this is an overly simplified view. From what I've heard, although it's not a huge amount, Titchener, as student of Wundt, touted Wundt's views as having been structuralist, although this was not necessarily entirely correct of Titchener. It was more like he was, to some extent, projecting his own views onto Wundt.

    Psychology is the way of determining someone inwardly , or the known essence of the living being , from the Greek word psyche translated to English as soul . There are three basic types of characters , the alpha known as positive , the omega as negative , and the combination of both known as neutral , which three of them obey different principles in life . The àggressive governing entity , the rebel that destroy a system known as negative , or the conservative and patient neutral entity 😢

While some of this video is superficially correct on the idea (occasionally) there is no way you can describe anything anyone did before the mid 19th century as psychology. It simply wasn't. Not conceptually, practically or philosophically.
