Relationships
Excerpt: "The data obtainable from those methods subsumed under social constructionist approaches, particularly, Personal Construct and Attribution Theories and the systemic perspective, however, seems to offer the most promising insights into the dynamic, ongoing and interactional nature of relationships. "

Depression and Gender
Why is depression more common in women than in men?
Excerpt: "However, as the aetiology of depression is difficult to pin point one single mechanism, this may be true for the way men and women experience depression differently. It may not be that women are more likely to experience depression more than men; it may be simply that their experiences of depressive symptoms are expressed differently."

Emotional Intelligence
Excerpt: "Firstly there are two versions of the E I concept of which the former is both intellectualised and scientific and the latter, by Goleman, is simplified and popular with greater reference to real scenarios as a tool to illustration. Secondly, it is emphasised that both schools are in harmony and each fulfil the two different yet essential goals for the use and teaching of E I, namely, a technical framework from which to develop further intellectual discourse in the highly relevant application of E I to adult life and secondly, a popular outreach those same adults which facilitates them with the opportunity to soul search their own personal endeavours with Emotional Intelligence."

Obediance and Authority
Psychology report - obedience and authority in prison environments
Excerpt: "Moreover, critics argue that an artificial prison environment bears little or no resemblance to a real prison environment and therefore that psychological conclusions about the obedience of volunteers are neither representative of prisoners generally, not can inferential statistics be drawn from them and used to speculate about the behaviour of the population as a whole."

Homosexuality
‘Verify Murstein (1972) with reference to homosexual male couples’

Psychology and Politics
Excerpt: "However, like tuning into the radio or TV, it is the choice of the individual whether to seek information about politics in the first instance. The falling figures in the elections may indicate that there is less curiosity towards politics – therefore if there is less curiosity, there results in a lack of political knowledge and expectation – and therefore may influence less people to vote."

Face Recognition
Excerpt: "By prediction the real world effects of semantic and repetition priming, the IAC model fits the experimental evidence well in ways that previous models were unable to do. When, as in this case, connectionist models can describe experimental data beyond their original scope they can be extremely beneficial to the complicated task of understanding of face recognition."

Connective Memory
The Confounding of Interactive Imagery and Connective Memory.
Excerpt: "It is possible that employing a larger sample size may aid the replication of these results, while including the target detection test, in the future. Thus, it is concluded that the interactive imagery effect was disrupted as a consequence of the target detection test. It is believed that these results would otherwise easily have been replicated."

Psychological Frameworks
Excerpt: "Another great debate touched upon by these pages is that of nature vs. nuture. Is a man what you can make him or is he that what he is, a product of biology and early childhood experiences? One simple, illustrative and insightful experiment to this great debate occurred when researchers created identical genetic clones of a few specific plant specimens. Researchers then planted each of these plants in differing yet hospitable environments. As one might guess, the plants did not grow identically (Tobach & Rosoff, 1994, p54)."

Down Syndrome and AAC
Excerpt: "However, by a slow process of trial and assessment of these procedures, small gains can be achieved in the eventual construction of a system that allows children to communicate more effectively. The practical benefits of these procedures for children with Down syndrome (and all children with intellectual disabilities) are of great importance to the improvement of their life opportunities. (Foreman, p. 8)"

Treatments of Depression
Excerpt: "Although it does neither bear negative side-effect nor involve high relapse risk factors its degree of success relies heavily on the competence of the responsible clinician. Nevertheless, one fact which has to be considered is that despite the overwhelming amount of scientific studies assessing existing depression treatments over 50% of patients do not respond to any type of treatment yet and researchers and medical professionals have to date been unsuccessful in decreasing this staggering statistic. In conclusion no guide exists telling one what to do if acupuncture, CBT, ECT or pharmacology fails to have an impact on depressed individuals (Hollon et al. 2002)."

Freud & the Psychodynamic Perspective
Sigmund Freud and the Psychodynamic Perspective
Excerpt: "Thus, we are left with a theory that is at the very least plausible but left very much open to interpretation: like many opposing theories evidence can be found for and against it, and it is left to the individual to determine whether or not the theory is acceptable to them. ."
The Sense of Self
Excerpt: "Self will always remain a tricky area to conceptualize, as the view of self - and from self - will undoubtedly change through the stages of our lives. Self is an area we will only be able to draw inference on due to its nature. Kohut (1977) refers to the cognitive impenetrability of self; only it's "introspectively or empathically perceived psychological manifestations are open to us" "
