Описание: This text recasts theories of self, synthesizing a range of psychologists and philosophers to restore to psychology the centrality of personhood and choice. Its unique perspective de-emphasizes method and formula in favor of moral agency and life experience.
Wilfrid Sellars, Idealism, and Realism is the first study of its kind to address a range of realist and idealist views inspired by psychological nominalism. Bringing together premier analytic realists and distinguished defenders of German idealism, it reveals why psychological nominalism is one of the most important theories of the mind to come out the 20th century.
The theory, first put forward by Wilfrid Sellars, argues that language is the only means by which humans can learn the types of socially shared practices that permit rationality. Although wedded to important aspects of German idealism, Sellars' theory is couched in bold realist terms of the analytic tradition. Those who are sympathetic to German idealism find this realist's appropriation of German idealism problematic. Wilfrid Sellars, Idealism and Realism thus creates a rare venue for realists and idealists to debate the epistemic outcome of the mental processes they both claim are essential to experience. Their resulting discussion bridges the gap between analytic and continental philosophy.
In providing original and accessible chapters on psychological nominalism, this volume raises themes that intersect with numerous disciplines: the philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, epistemology, and metaphysics. It also provides clarity on arguably the best available account of why humans can reason, be self-aware, know, and act as agents.
Описание: Life Lessons from Psychological Science: Understanding and Improving Interpersonal Dynamics provides students with a primer for developing self-awareness and insight through interpersonal conversation. The text focuses on human behavior in various situations—from educational settings to the workplace and the home—in order to help readers understand, appreciate, and enrich the human dynamics of their everyday lives.This book features 50 life lessons grounded in contemporary research and relevant to improving interpersonal dynamics. Several life lessons reflect the behavioral science principles of positive versus negative reinforcement, observational learning, and behavior-based feedback. Other life lessons are founded on humanism, including empathy, interdependence, systems thinking, and self-transcendence. Still others are derived from social psychology, including six principles of social influence, the dynamics of group decision-making, and critical distinctions between discrimination and stereotyping. Domains of psychology such as sensation and perception, personality, health and stress, learning, and motivation are the foundation of other life lessons. The lessons are complemented by instructive and entertaining illustrations and discussion questions to initiate lively dialogue.A dynamic, contemporary, and personal text, Life Lessons from Psychological Science is an ideal resource for introductory psychology courses.

Описание: A personality of a person is shaped by experiences, environment, and inherited characteristics. But once the person behaves in an unusual way such as becoming aggressive, egoistic, and insensitive, then that person possibly has a personality disorder. For someone who is diagnosed with this illness, a lot of factors are considered to be the reasons contributing to such. This can also cause distress over a long period. In the 21st century, the most prevalent disorder case is Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NDP). This is one of the many mental illnesses that can destroy one's life if not being controlled. Someone with NDP tends to project an attention-seeker attitude. This is common to the younger generation or what we mostly refer to as Millennials. Narcissistic people regard themselves as someone with dominating power. They usually disregard others. When they feel the urge to demean or insult people, they will not hesitate. They can even pose as the kind of people you never wish to interact with. They are manipulative in some ways, and often just showoff themselves to the many. If you know someone with this attitude, it is really frustrating to act nicely around them. However, even though they are annoying, we still do not know what made them act like that. According to some psychologists, people with Narcissistic Personality Disorder may have lived a miserable life, especially as a child. They have probably experienced neglection in the past. They might have never gotten the things they wanted during their childhood days. People with Narcissistic Personality Disorder requires immediate and thorough psychological aid because this can lead to suicide, depression, physical abuse, and drug abuse. However, confirmed NPD patients do not actively seek help themselves. This is for the reason that they strongly believe that nothing is wrong with them. Not until their disorder starts to impact their lives significantly. Even though these people are on the verge of major depression and suicide, they still would not consider asking for medical help. They believe that it would be detrimental to their public image when they start going to psychological therapy. They Are afraid that others will look down to them, thinking that they have gone crazy. So, they prefer to hide everything to themselves than speaking up to a psychological expert or therapist. They do not want to look like a loser in front of their friends and family. People with NPD strives to continue to fit in as well to be accepted by society. They will put on a gallant mask so no one will know their weakness. This book gives a comprehensive guide on the following: - Signs and symptoms of the narcissistic personality disorder and their traits- Who does the narcissist target?- Narcissism in real life- Developing emotional intelligence after narcissistic abuse- Surviving narcissistic abuse- Healing from experience with a narcissist how to defeat a narcissist- How to get over them in real life- Building healthy relationships....
