Psychology – Year 11 transition work Introduction to Psychology We would like you to do some preparation for your Psychology A level. You probably have not studied Psychology before, so this will be a good way of getting to know some very famous researchers that we will come across next year. What do I need to do? We would like you to research at least 5 of following psychologists using the internet or any books you have access to and put together a poster that contains: • A brief summary of their most famous work, which might include what they have found or a theory that they have proposed • If you can, an image of the psychologist The poster can be hand written or done on the computer, whichever is easiest for you. Here is an example: HARRY HARLOW Dr Harlow conducted most of his research using rhesus monkeys. His most famous work demonstrated that when infant monkeys were given the choice of a wire model monkey that provided food or a wire model monkey covered with soft cloth, which provided no food, the infant monkeys spent all of the time with the cloth model. This work showed us that attachment to parents is not just for food, but actually primarily for love and comfort. Here is a list of famous psychologists we would like you to research at least 5: • Sigmund Freud • Soloman Asch • John Bowlby • Albert Bandura • Burrhus Skinner • Alan Baddeley • Elizabeth Loftus • Philip Zimbardo We will be • Mary Ainsworth • Korad Lorenz displaying the best • Stanley Milgram • Michael Rutter posters on the classroom wall • Aaron Beck • Wilhelm Wundt • Albert Ellis • Abraham Maslow .

What is psychoanalysis? Psychoanalysis is both a theory of the human mind and a therapeutic practice. It was founded by Sigmund Freud between 1885 and 1939 and continues to be developed by psychoanalysts all over the world. Psychoanalysis has four major areas of application: 1) as a theory of how the mind works 2) as a treatment method for psychic problems 3) as a method of research, and 4) as a way of viewing cultural and social phenomena like literature, art, movies, performances, politics and groups. What is psychoanalytic treatment for? Psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy are for those who feel caught in recurrent psychic problems that impede their potential to experience happiness with their partners, families, and friends as well as success and fulfilment in their work and the normal tasks of everyday life.

A Brief History of Logotherapy
Advanced Diploma in Logotherapy Module 1 Unit 1 Reading 2 READING 1.1.2 A Brief History of Logotherapy Stephen Kalmar The history of a new school of thought is, in its first phase, largely the history of its founder, following step by step as the new line of thought is developed. In its second phase, the views of the founder find acceptance and gather disciples. Then, in a third phase, the followers of the founder apply and expand these ideas to test, then deepen and modify them as they feel it necessary and justified. The flowers which grow from the original seeds may often surprise the founder. Freud, Marx, and Jesus would be astonished to see all the things that have been said, written, and done in their names. At this moment the history of Logotherapy has reached the threshold between its second and third phases, with the founder fortunately still actively participating and watching the developments of his Logotherapy, offering guidance and criticism. Viktor E. Frankl‟s writings are to a large extent autobiographical. We can see how his thoughts from the earliest beginnings have developed, both chronologically and systematically, until they became what is often referred to as the third Viennese school of psychotherapy—Sigmund Freud‟s being the first and Alfred Adler‟s the second. Frankl, with his usual sense of humor, gives us in An Autobiographical Sketch (Frank 1981a, p.144) what might be said to be the exact “birthday” of Logotherapy. One evening, he recalls, before falling asleep at the age of four, in 1909, a frightening thought struck him: “One day I, too, will die.

Karen Horney Vs. Sigmund Freud
Karen Horney vs. Sigmund Freud: Breaking Barriers in Psychoanalysis for Women as a Woman Cate Boyette Individual Performance Senior Division Process Paper: 492 words Boyette 1 Last summer, I was a volunteer at a coding camp for gifted, disadvantaged elementary school girls. At the camp, we used a book titled Women in Science-- 50 Fearless Pioneers Who Changed the World. After doing National History Day for two years, I knew I wanted to do it again, and I was on the lookout for topics to fit the theme of Breaking Barriers in History. After I read the excerpt on Karen Horney, I immediately knew I wanted to tell her story. The way she challenged Freudian beliefs for having both misogynistic and scientific flaws during a time when promoting such ideas could ruin one’s reputation as a psychoanalyst clearly broke barriers. She also paved the way for women who wanted to pursue psychoanalysis and specialize in adult therapy. Because my topic this year was more academic in nature, my research process differed from previous years. I immediately noticed that primary sources were easier to find, especially medical articles, journals from the time, and the works of Horney and other psychoanalysts. My most useful primary sources were the two books by Horney. I used Feminine Psychology to explain her counter-argument to Freud´s popular theory on the castration complex in women and I used Neurosis and Human Growth to discuss her anti-Freudian beliefs. What was difficult to find were high-quality secondary sources. Since most of my primary sources focused on particular aspects of Horney's life, I tried looking for a biography.

Psychoanalytic Play Therapy
c01.qxd 6/4/03 2:46 PM Page 1 Chapter 1 PSYCHOANALYTIC PLAY THERAPY Richard N. Bromfield As he did for so many other forms of treatment, Sigmund Freud laid the founda- tion for psychodynamic play therapy. His work with and thinking about his adult patients inspired new insights into the emotional development and experiences of children, particularly the profound relationship of children’s psyches, bodies, and sexuality (1905). Although he clinically focused on adults, his informal analyses of his own children and treatment of Little Hans, a five-year-old boy with a horse phobia (1909/1955), and his working backward toward the early experiences of his adult patients, set the stage for the logical next step of treating children. Hermine von Hug-Hellmuth, a teacher in Vienna, became the first to formally treat children with talk and play. In 1920, she wrote that “[t]he analysis both of the child and of the adult has the same end and object; namely, the restoration of the psyche to health and equilibrium which have been endangered through influences known and unknown” (p. 287). Initially treating her young patients in their own homes, Hug-Hellmuth appreciated the influence of family and saw children’s dif- ficulties much rooted in their parents’ unresolved troubles. She also believed that conscious insight was not a requisite to a child’s finding relief and help in play. The most cited beginnings of child therapy revolve around Anna Freud in Vi- enna and Melanie Klein in Berlin. Both women held deep beliefs in the richness and complexity of childhood and development, appreciated the suffering that children know, and valued play therapy as a means for understanding and healing.

We begin with the Freud texts that pertain both to structural theory and his two theories of anxiety, along with Anna Freud’s contributions on the mechanisms of defense. We then move into commentaries and criticisms of Freud’s theories and his listening techniques, as well as discussions of Anna Freud’s psychoanalytic theory. Next we move into Brenner’s ego psychology and commentaries and criticisms of that theory. Two sessions are then devoted to contemporary structural theory, and the final session focuses on the contributions of Loewald. COURSE OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this class to is provide candidates with knowledge of the history and development of structural theory, ego psychology, and contemporary structural theory. This will be done using texts written by Freud and Anna Freud, next moving into the 50’s and 60’s, Brenner, Hartmann, Kris, and Lowenstein, and then into more contemporary writings. Our hope is that candidates will see the arc of theory development, and how it evolves into modern structural theory and ego psychology in the present. At the completion of this class candidates will be able to: 1. Explain Freud’s structural theory 2. Identify Freud’s two theories of anxiety 3.
