The following were selected for their strong orientation in this direction: Gordon Allport, Andras Angyal, Kurt Goldstein, Prescott Lecky, Abraham Maslow, Bardner Murphy, and Carl Rogers. The four themes which emerged from an analysis of their writings are concerned with organization, motivation, process and potentiality. With three minor exceptions, the seven holistic theorists were virtually identical in their basic principles and thematic concerns. The four themes form a supportive structure for the development of a holistic theory of healthy personality and are offered as evidence that the selected theorists represent a shared orientation toward the development of the human personality. An analysis and subsequent synthesis of the seven individual theories is presented. Implications for the theory and practice of psychotherapy and education are cffered.(Author/CJ) 1-"Anal Report Project No, 8.-E -076 Grant No, OEG-5-9-325076-0004 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, EDUCATION & WELFARE OFFICE OF EDUCATION THIS DOCUMENT HAS BEEN REPRODUCED EXACTLY ASRECEIVED FROM THE PERSON OR ORGANIZATION ORIGINATING IT.

  • Metacognitive Experiences and the Intricacies of Setting People Straight: Implications for Debiasing and Public Information Campaigns
    METACOGNITIVE EXPERIENCES AND THE INTRICACIES OF SETTING PEOPLE STRAIGHT: IMPLICATIONS FOR DEBIASING AND PUBLIC INFORMATION CAMPAIGNS Norbert Schwarz Lawrence J. Sanna Ian Skurnik Carolyn Yoon I. Introduction Decades of psychological research documented that human judgment often falls short of normative ideals. Social and cognitive psychologists discovered an ever increasing number of systematic biases and illustrated their pervasive role in judgment and decision making (for reviews see Gilovich, GriYn, & Kahneman, 2002; Kahneman, Slovic, & Tversky, 1982; Kerr, MacCoun, & Kramer, 1996; Nisbett & Ross, 1980; Pohl, 2005). Similarly, researchers in applied fields, like health and consumer behavior, identified numerous erro- neous beliefs that impair good decisions and prevent people from doing what would be in their best interest (Christensen, Moran, & Wiebe, 1999; Webley, Burgoyne, Lea, & Young, 2001). In both cases, the remedy seems obvious: If people only thought enough about the issues at hand, considered all the relevant information and employed proper reasoning strategies, their deci- sion making would surely improve. This assumption is at the heart of numerous strategies that attempt to debias human judgment (for a review see Larrick, 2004); it is likewise central to public information campaigns designed to dispel erroneous beliefs and to replace them with more accurate information (for a review see Rice & Atkin, 2001). Unfortunately, these attempts to improve decision making often fail to achieve their goals, even under conditions assumed to foster rational judgment. 127 ADVANCES IN EXPERIMENTAL Copyright 2007, Elsevier Inc.

  • A Social Animal Revealed
    COMMENT BOOKS & ARTS are cleverly designed and he insists on rigorous standards. His co-authored chap- ter on experimental methods in the second M. WUSCHNIG M. edition of the Handbook of Social Psychol- ogy (Addison-Wesley, 1968) helped to make the field credible as a science. Experimental social psychology is often criticized for relying on deceit and theatri- cality. Its test subjects must not know the point of the enterprise. Aronson believes that such experimental design is justified because it gives real insight into human behaviour. He describes how social psychol- ogist Stanley Milgram discussed with him early plans for a con- troversial ‘obedi- ence to authority’ experiment, in which subjects were told to inflict what they thought were increas- ing levels of pain on other participants by Not by Chance administering fake Alone: My Life electric shocks.

Much of the autobiography is devoted to Elliot Aronson has studied the psychology of how people cope with conflicting beliefs and experiences.

  • How to Synthesize Psychological Science”
    PSY 225 – Research Methods Professor Gernsbacher’s Lecture Video “How to Synthesize Psychological Science” By now you’ve read several psychological science articles. And no doubt you’ve noticed that scientific articles are not the easiest to read. Why not? Well, one obvious reason is that scientific articles are often written about technical topics, and readers without expertise in those techniques don’t always have the background to understand the technical writing. But another reason why scientific articles are often hard to read is that scientists are often lousy writers. And sadly, as illustrated by a recent empirical study titled CLICK: The readability of scientific texts is decreasing over time, scientific articles are getting harder not easier to read, which is unfortunate. However, not all scientists are bad writers, and not all scientific articles are poorly written. In this video, we’re going to look at excerpts of well-written scientific articles. In particular, we’re going to look at excerpts of well- written scientific articles that synthesize psychological science. What do I mean by synthesize psychological science? Well, one of the definitions of CLICK: synthesize is “To combine (a number of things) into a coherent whole.” And that’s what the excerpts that we’re going to look at do: They CLICK: combine the results of OTHER scientific articles into a coherent paragraph. When writers combine the results of other scientific articles into a coherent paragraph, it’s called reviewing the literature or writing a literature review. Unfortunately, not a lot of students have been taught how to write a literature review.

McFarland 1901-1976 CONTENTS Preface vi Introduction vii Acknowledgements ix Catalog 1 Vidéocassettes ИЗ Journals 114 Technical Reports Series 117 Name Index 119 Subject Index 146 PREFACE The Ross A. McFarland Collection in Aerospace Medicine and Human Factors Engineering at the Fordham Health Sciences Library, Wright State University School of Medicine, provides an unparalleled scientific resource and data base for physicians, life scientists, engineers and others working at the leading edge of human progress, especially those in the areas of aviation, space and advanced ground transportation. The Collection is regularly consulted by those currently pioneering these fields and is an invaluable source of information constituting the base upon which future progress is being constructed. I met Dr. McFarland in 1958 and came to know him -well. I observed first-hand his pioneering concepts in human factors, enhanced immeasurably by his articulate communications. Starting in the 1930's, he almost singlehandedly launched the human factors effort in aviation, directly collecting data on airline pilot fatigue and other major operational flight safety aspects. Folio-wing Dr. McFarland's untimely death in 1976, an event -widely recognized as taking from us the father of aerospace human factors, his wife, Mrs. Emily McFarland, decided to deed his library and scientific papers to Wright State University School of Medicine, Fordham Health Sciences Library. This gift consisted of more than 6,000 print items and approximately 400 linear feet of scientific manuscripts, unpublished reports, research data and correspondence, covering 50 years of professional work and research by Dr.
